This person asks for a deposit payment via Western Union or MoneyGram to an escrow company with a promise that he will send the keys through a courier company.

Sounds safe. It's not!
These companies do not work this way.

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.

Hello ,
Attached to the mail is the rental agreement form which i will advice you go through properly,once you're okay with that which am sure of then you proceed with the payment to the below bank details

ACCOUNT NAME:Victoria Fernandez
IBAN :GB82ABBY09012709564026
BIC :ABBYGB2LXXX
BANK SORT CODE 09-01-27
BANK ACCOUNT NUM 09564026

Once you get through with the transfer then you're to get back to me with a scanned copy of the transfer receipt.Immediately i confirm the payment then i will reserve the room for you and send you the signed rental agreement form along with the payment receipt which indicate we're in contract and you bring it along with you when coming for moving in.Hope you understand?Thanks
