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.
All the details such as names, addresses, pictures etc. that the scammer uses in order to back up his story, are stolen from elsewhere.
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.
Attached to this mail is the Rental Agreement Form with information needed to make payment. Sending charges via western union should be deducted from your rental deposit.
MODE OF PAYMENT VIA WESTERN UNION® MONEY TRANSFER OR MONEYGRAM MONEY TRANSFER:
RECEIVER`S NAME: Blessing Guiakora (Account Officer)
RECEIVER`S ADDRESS: Paris, France
SENDERS NAME:
SENDERS ADDRESS:
MONEY TRANSFER CONTROL NUMBER OR REFERENCE NUMBER:
You can send the fee in either EUR or USD.
Please forward to me the filled Rental Agreement Form and a scanned copy of the confirmation receipt/slip of deposit issued to you as soon as you make the payment so i can process your receipt and send it to you, I will also need this information for confirmation on your arrival to hand over the keys to you.
Note: Only when payment has been confirmed by my Account officer can i reserve the apartment for you and i will appreciate it if you take care of this as soon as you can because i have other clients who are also interested in renting the apartment.
Awaiting your prompt response.
Mr. Bruno
