Hello roommate
Thank you for the reply, I have a decent and well furnished apartment for a decent roommate, the apartment is ready to go in and it is located in the Rue du Cherche-Midi 21, St Germain des Pres, Ile France, maisavant I begin to tell you about it, it is fair that I let you know more about me be your potential roommate so you can know somethings about me.
I am a woman of 23 years easygoing. My father is from France, while my mother is from Australia.My Hobbies are swimming, reading and traveling. In fact, I was in France, Bangladesh has also recently in the Uk, I also like going out with friends and associate with people but I have not had the opportunity to go out with my friends as I have been very busy with my studies and also I'm trying to get my Masters soon. My father used to live here in this apartment with my family, but then we moved to the UK where he died and I am alone in this apartment that my mother is still overseeing the UK business My late father and I'm not here right now and would not be back for some time. I am in the UK now on an internship project attached to the affairs of a company of my father and I was sent to supervise and be back before the end of september2012. Once I confirmed that my reservation roommate, I will send you the keys to the apartment by mail
About my apartment, it is an apartment with three bedrooms and I live in a bedroom of the apartment, I have two rooms ready to move in, the rooms are furnished with a sofa bed, two armchairs, a table 4 chairs with matching sheets consumables, television with digital receiver, telephone, floor, and there is a window facing nord.L apartment enabled wireless internet
You will have a free and unlimited access to all of the apartment, the kitchen, living room and of course, except my room, and you can also have your own visitors.The rent of the room is 400 per month which includes electricity bills (all included) and you will be required to pay a deposit of 600. This deposit will be refunded at the end of your stay in my apartment.
I hope it works well and if you have further questions, you can certainly ask me, I am also attaching pictures of my building and also agree that we may enter and you can eventually move in.
Regards and waiting to hear from you soon,
Thank you.
The thief will tell you that you can rent his accommodation only if you can prove that you have genuine interest. He will ask you send money by wire transfer (normally Western Union) to yourself or a member of the family to show that you have sufficient finances and that you are not a "time waster".
Another variation of this scam is that you need to send (by Western Union) money in order that the keys and other documents can be couriered to you
He will ask you to send him the transfer details.
Make no mistake ! Western Union Transfers can be picked up virtually anywhere in the world and with the minimum of identification. They are almost impossible to trace once the money has been collected. You will never get to see the accommodation or your money 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 Gumtree or similar listing sites. If you receive any requests from 'Landlords' asking for some kind of payment by Western Union 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.
