Thanks for your email and interest in renting my house and the quick response.I work as a missionary so we travel a lot to spread the Gospel in most part of Asia and Africa but we are presently in Africa,i came over here with my wife and we are both working in the ministry.We hope our mission will be fulfilled. We just want to make sure that our house is rented out so that we can concentrate on our missionary work. I will like to let you know that i initially wanted to sell the house but my wife advised we rent it out to responsible people.Please i want you to note that i spent a lot on my property so i will solicit for your absolute maintenance of this house and i want you to keep it tidy all the time so that i will be glad to see it neat when i come for a check up.
So if you are ready to occupy the house kindly provide the information below so that i can forward more details about the house.I will get back to you as soon as possible.

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.
Thank you once more for your interest in renting our house,we really appreciate it.The monthly rent is $1300 while the deposit is $600 making a total of $1900 to move in.Am sure by now you must have driven by to see the house and the neighborhood but if you haven't please do drive by to see the house and the neighborhood today then you get back to me if you love it so that we can discuss further.
I just finished discussing with my wife regarding your interest and we are willing to rent the house to you.We will be in the State by October just for a short visit and we are not planning to return to the house.I understand you intend to move in before our arrival but if you are really serious about the house then we will arrange to send the keys and the paperwork to you which will be delivered to you within 48 hours via courier so that you can possibly occupy the house but we really have to be sure that you are willing to rent the house before we can arrange to send the keys/paperwork to you. So if you could pay the deposit first $600 then we will be rest assured that you are serious about the house then we can now arrange to send the keys/paperwork to you as this will help hold the house till you are ready to move in.
Please call me so that we can discuss further,you can reach me on +2348052592021. Once again thank you so much for your response.Await your immediate response.
