Presently I am in United Kingdom for a project and I don’t know when I will return back to Australia that’s why am looking for a Tenant who will live in the apartment and take care of it as i don't want to sell it. The apartment is available for long term and short term lease is also accepted.
The apartment is located at 69 Milligan Street Perth, WA 6000
It is furnished but if you need it unfurnished, i can order for the furniture be moved to storage. The rent is inclusive of the below listed utilities:

This person asks for a deposit payment via Western Union or MoneyGram to an escrow company with a promise that he will send the keys through a courier company.
Sounds safe. It's not!
These companies do not work this way.
The website he sends you to is a fake!
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.
You seem to be a very nice person and I can assure you we will not have any problems
First of all if you want to rent the apartment you need to pay 1 month of rent + 1 month of warranty ( $660 + $660 = $1320 ) ! ( but that month of warranty you will receive back after you finish the contract ) !
If we decide to proceed with this transaction, I will have to contact NEWCO Real Estate (http://www.newcorealestate.co.cc ? Fake website. Reported.) and provide them all the necessary information, so they can start the process right away.
I will need your full name and address for that. You will receive a notification from NEWCO Real Estate shortly after that, together with all the instructions to follow and the invoice as well.
Regarding the payment, you will be instructed to deposit the money to NEWCO Real Estate. They will hold and insure your money until you check the apartment and decide if you want take it or not.
That is how their buyer protection policy works. As far as my concerns, I will be glad to know that NEWCO Real Estate has the possession of the money during the delivery period. That is my insurance. As soon as the funds have been deposited into their account, they will immediately start the shipping process.
The keys and rental contract will be delivered at your address in no more than 3 working days. You will be given a five days inspection period from the day you receive the keys and contract at home. If you decide to hold the apartment, then you will have to authorize NEWCO Real Estate to release the funds to me, and the transaction will be completed. If you will not be satisfied with the apartment, you will be able to send the keys and contract back through the same service and ask NEWCO Real Estate to return the funds to you. Through I am sure you will love the apartment, it is good to know that you do have this second option available. If you wish to proceed with renting the apartment, please provide me your full name and address so I can initiate the deal through NEWCO Real Estate right away.
I am looking forward to hearing from you.
Thank you
