Hello,

Thanks for your interest regarding our house our home is still available for rent, we are looking for a responsible neat person or a family whom we could trust and rely on with the property, a family that will handle our property as if it were theirs in our absence. We initially had the home for sale before leaving for my new contract with Chevron oil in NC (NORTH CAROLINA) which will last a total five years,for this reason we decided not to sell, but put it up for lease since we will be spending that much time.So currently i am in North Carolina with my family, We lost our previous agent to cancer last November and leaving our home empty is not a good option for us also i wasn't residing over there, I only came to locked up the apartment and make sure the apartment is in perfect condition, after my late father passed away.

So i am actually renting it out, so my tenant can look after the flat on my behalf as well Our priority isn’t the rent but that our property is well kept as myself and my family will be away for good 5 years or more that's why we require a responsible and God fearing family whom we can trust and rely on with our property.We would also like to know more about you and your family, your renting experience, how long you wish occupying and when you plan moving into our home before we proceed as we require a good and responsible family whom are very neat freaks, a photo of you or your family will be greatly appreciated, below is the address of the house for you to go view it.

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.
