Subject: LEASE APPLICATION FORM
Thanks and God bless you for the email and love for my house,i have got other people that are also willing to rent from me so it depend on how fast you are.
I have attached to this e-mail the Rental Application for you to complete and send back to me through e-mail.
BELOW ARE CONTENT OF THE PACKAGE YOU WILL RECEIVE:
(1)Payment Receipt for the first month rent
(2)Paper/Permanent house form (Containing your reference details)
(3)The house documentary file.
(4)Full description of the house.
(5)Entrance and the rooms Keys.
These will be delivered to you in your current address so that you can possibly occupy our house as stated. Once again, I am giving you this on trust and do not disappoint me and I promise you that you will love the house as you move into it.
Hope to read from you soon
The thief will tell you that you can rent his accommodation only if you can prove that you have genuine interest. He will ask you send money by wire transfer (normally Western Union) to yourself or a member of the family to show that you have sufficient finances and that you are not a "time waster".
Another variation of this scam is that you need to send money (again via Western Union) in order that the keys and other documents can be couriered to you
He will ask you to send him the transfer details.
Make no mistake ! Western Union Transfers can be picked up virtually anywhere in the world and with the minimum of identification. They are almost impossible to trace once the money has been collected. You will never get to see the accommodation or your money 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 Gumtree or similar listing sites. If you receive any requests from 'Landlords' asking for some kind of payment by Western Union 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.
