Subject: Room For Rent
Hello ,
How are you doing today,regarding my posted advert on Easy-roommate let me take a little time to tell you something about myself, the room & its amenities, price and conditions to rent.
Why i am renting:
I live in a 3 bedroom flat like i told you but the 2 rooms vacant which i am offering for rent is because my previous flatmates are through with there activities and work here and has gone back to there respective states.So, i need people who are fun to be with, people whom we could share times and moments together,not just minding your business or going into your room after the day....but you can always have your private time and affair if you so wish and desire.
About myself
I am a young 24yr old female who grew up abroad. I'm currently doing my masters in risk finance after work and this makes me return home late but can't stop having fun when its necessary. I am an accountant and thus work for s brooking firm here and also a consultant,so this makes me travel often which is the main reason why i need and search good people as flatmates so i will be rest assured that my flat is in safe hands in my absence.
I got my first degree at London School of Economics, i worked in Paris as an accountant in a brooking firm before i went to the Barcelona to take a 3 months course in public marketing and to learn the Spanish cultures and languages.Did my internship with JT Morgan in New York in 2008 which gave me an opportunity to visit the united states for the first time...what a traveler i am....lol......what else can i say..i think when we have a chat..you will hear more..
My house is located in 47 Foxley St, in the city of Toronto,Ontario and is very close to the bus transport system.

NB: The security deposit is refundable upon verification of the room which you rented to be in good order during your last day of move out from my apartment.
There is contract available for weekly, month to month and long term basis. If you want a long term rent contract, i will prefer an initial 3 months rent which is renewable 2weeks prior to the rent expiration. This is for us to get to know more about ourselves and see if we could live together happily as flatmate for a longer period.
Immediately i confirm your interest and knowing some things about you,I shall send to you the current pictures of your room and my flat in general with the kitchen and other pictures as well before we proceed with the necessary details to prepare the tenement contract necessary for your move in.
Yours sincerely
Marie.
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.
