[email protected] VRBO HomeAway Scammer

Rental Scammer targeting online rental owners: In this scam the scammer will send a fake check or money order in an amount higher than the price. He will later write to inform you of the mistake. He will want you to send the overage to a third party via Western Union or Money Gram. The third person is still the scammer or his gang. They will pretend to be a Travel agent, assistant or etc.

Another version is that the scammer has problems and can not travel. He now wants you to refund the money.

The fake check or money order will look real. Your bank will cash the fake check. Days or weeks later your bank will advise you about the fake check. You will have to re-pay the bank. The bank may even report you to Law Enforcement for Fraud.

Good afternoon
I am sorry for all the delay in payment .
There was a mix up in the payment sent to you ,I was suppose to receive two separate payment one for you and the other for my traveling agent But all payments was issued in your name and sent .
I tried to correct this but it was in vain as i was ask to resolve the problem myself. It would have to go through a very long process to change this error . Please I don't know what to do.
I have been advised me to contact you since these checks where issued in your name , so you should be able to clear them into your account. As soon as you have the checks cleared to your account you are to deduct your rent and remit the balance to my travel agent Please do let me know how you can help on this issue .
Thanks
