Thank you very much for the information provided and everything will be attached to my file as our new tenant. I feel so excited after reading your email and I want you to know that we just needed a very good and responsible tenant to occupy our house and we have found your application very satisfactory and we would like you to answer this below questions....
Confirm your address where i will send you the package because i don't want to send the package to wrong address?
Are you ready to make the Down payment? Because we want to stop replying the mails of other interested people.
If you can make Down payment i will keep the house for you till your move date
Call my Number @ +2347087554408 .. So that the keys can be send to you fast.
Can you take proper care of the house in our absence?
The house is locked for now, so can you drive by the house to take a look from the outside?
Down payment of $500 will be use for shipment of the keys and document while the shipment take place via FedEx and take 24hours to delivered to your door step.....and then when you move in to the house you can start paying the rent by , so I accept it just that you have to assure me that you will really take good care of the house, hope am communicate? Let me have all this questions well answered so we could proceed from there.
God Bless You.
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.
