Hello,
Thank you for your email and interest in my house.The house located at: 521 Apache Drive, East Stroudsburg PA 18302 Is a 4 br 3 ba Single-Family Home and is currently available for rent. Which I own and occupied before leaving for West Africa-Nigeria. On the contrary, We have left on a self Mission, following God's call to Preach the Word and let the people of all Nations hear about him, so we are on the mission to preach the good news of our Lord; for all the nations to hear about him.
We are looking for a very well-behaved, clean and honest tenant to rent out our house. We will like you to give us your word and promise us that you will take good care of our house so that we will be happy when we come to visit you in the future. We are willing to work on any flexible plan you may have on your term of renting, Long or short term or month to month.
I had a Realtor company help me get a tenant, but they were handling things too professionally and were extorting potential tenants, so I took the contract of their hands and tried doing this my self, but I couldn't find any tenant while I was still in the state as at last week. So as a matter of urgency for my travel, I do not want my home to be misused in my absence, I decided to take the keys and documents along with me. So I hope you will promise me to take very good care of the house always, as that is my main priority. I really do need to get a very well-behaved person; like I said earlier, to take occupancy of my residence, so my mind may be at ease. We shall be staying here for upwards of six years, doing God's Work, a 90 days notice shall be given to you prior to our arrival back to the states after six years of our service here in Nigeria.

This person asks for a deposit payment via Western Union, MoneyGram or bank transfer with a promise that you can have the keys to a property that does not belong to him.
Sounds safe. It's not!
At other times, he will ask for proof that you are able to pay the deposit and rent due to a string of time wasters.
This proof is in the form of a Western Union or MoneyGram payment to a lawyer,a friend or family member.
In either case, if payment is made and you give this person the details, they will collect the money.
You will not hear from them again.
If you are reading this because you are looking for property to rent, and you are in contact with this thief you are probably searching Craigslist, Gumtree or similar listing sites. If you receive any requests from 'Landlords' asking for some kind of payment before viewing, then it will also be a scam. Please forward the mail to me at the address in my signature line and I will investigate and list them if necessary.
