Hello
The apartment is still much available for rent.Here are some important details you need to know. You have to be very clean and have to make sure you take care of the apartment as it it were yours because presently i am not in Geneva, i just left couple of weeks back,i was just been transferred by my company.That is why i am renting out my apartment.

Bills include the following: water, electricity,WiFi internet connection, microwave oven, fridge,gas etc.
Location:Rue des Rois 7 1204 Genève, Switzerland and it just few distance to public transport.The apartment spacious is about 65sqm and a room is about 30sqm, restaurant and public transport all around and it's few minutes walking distance to the supermarket, so it's located in a very nice and safe area. There is parking space
I attached some pictures of how my apartment looks like.

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 (by Western Union) money 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.
