Hej,
Tack för ditt intresse för min lägenhet. Tyvärr har jag inte skrivit på svenska, eftersom jag inte talar mycket bra och är bättre att skriva på engelska. Om du har svårt att förstå mitt budskap på engelska, tveka inte att kontakta mig på svenska, och jag ska göra mitt bästa för att svara på alla dina frågor.
I appreciate your intent of renting my apartment located in : Paradisgatan 27, 413 16 Göteborg - Sweden . I bought this apartment for my son during he studies in Sweden, but now he's back home ( Bristol / United Kingdom ) permanently, so I'm renting the place for unlimited time. Before we go any further I would like to know a little something about you, like how many persons you intend to live in the apartment, and for how long. The flat is exactly like in the pictures, fully furnished equipped and renovated. Also, very important, the utilities water hot/cold, electricity, heating, gas, Internet, cable, parking space, dishwasher, garbage disposal, are included in the price of 3800 SEK per month and I believe it is convenient for us both. All the bills will be paid by me and you have to pay only the money for the rent in every month. The security deposit is also 3800 SEK, and you get it back, when you decide to leave the apartment ( you will have to give me at least 2 moths notice ). As for me, you can rest assured that I will never ask you to leave the apartment. My son is building his life and now he will go with his wife in Portugal to make them business, and about me I am too old to move to Sweden, so we won't disturb you. You can use my furniture, or you can also use your own if you prefer.I have the option of sending all my furniture into storage if you want to bring your own (no extra costs). Now, a little bit about myself so we can get to know each other better. My name is Malin Bruhn and I'm a 57 years old Neuro-Oncology doctor from Bristol / United Kingdom ( North Bristol NHS Trust ), planning to retire in the next 5 years. I have no problem if you will keep animals. The only inconvenience is that my job doesn't allow me to leave Bristol even for one single day. But this won't affect you at all. I can make arrangements to rent the apartment from Bristol (on my expense of course).
Thank you for your interest and I will look forward to hearing from you soon.
With Respect,
Malin Bruhn
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.
The scammer uses a fake courier company and website.
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.
