Hi

Glad to hear back from you am renting out the whole flat and right now im in Cardiff on a business trip before i can come down to London for the viewing , i have to be very sure am dealing with the right person also i will like to let you know that i have been treated so badly by those who want to rent my flat, before we can arrange for the viewing, I will like to see a proof from you which is going to make me reserve my flat for you

1. It has been observed that some tenants do not have the money to pay the rent and yet they keep disturbing the landlord to arrange a viewing with their friend or relative, i hope you are not one of them .

2. Also some do not meet up with the viewing appointments which has led to the dismissal of some landlords in office by there employees.

Therefore, effort has been made by the landlord association that a willing and serious tenants should be able to make transfer of the security deposit and one month rent to a friends or relative name which a confirmation will be made on the transfer done to check if he or she is capable of paying the rent before arranging for a viewing or to retain the room and also stop other people from viewing the room..

I'm not asking you to send or transfer the money to me, just get the transfer done to any of your family or friend in the UK (Galsgow). This is a procedure given to us by the Landlord Association due to past/bad experiences with the other landlords and we've been warned not to take a bank statement or personal information from anyone.

All you need to do is locate the nearest western union shop around you. Pick up the form of transfer and fill in the details which needs to be filled and return back to the post master. Details needed on the form are {sender name;your name and address.}{receiver name and address) return back to the post master with the cash you are transferring to your partner or friend and wait for the receipt to be returned back to you. Scan the receipt to me and give me a call so my lawyer can check it if its truly genuine and available in your friend's custody this will just take 30min to confirm from the website. After it has been confirmed on the website,then we can proceed for the viewing.

Get back to me asap because i have a lot of student who are willing to rent the flat and its based on first come first serve basis and let me know when you get the transfer done, if you can get the transfer done now. then we can schedule a viewing......call me on +447031857812 or 07031857812 so we can meet up for the viewing.

Regards
Mr. Craig
