There is no Registration fee and agency fee, since you are dealing
directly with me the Landlord. The Security Deposit would be needed as
a Security Bond in order for the keys and paperwork along side with
Lease Contract agreement to be sent to you... Electric Bills and water
bills have been paid for, so i would also need to send the receipts to
you, would in case it would be needed.
I would like you to know that you are free to contact me at any time.
After i receive this details, i would get back to you soonest and then
let you know my terms. Pets are allowed.I hope to hear from you
soonest.
God Bless

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.
