Hello,
Thanks for your mail and also for contacting me on The property,the
property is still available for rent/lease right now.I must confess to you
that you are a lucky tenant to be ,because I don't really want to rent/lease
the property but my wife advised me to do so. Due to our present location,
we have been transferred from Work to Western region in Africa, i am an x
ray welder, and i was transferred here under nigerdock plc . My wife came
here to join me with my kids after some months i was transfer, I will be
here for 2 years. My Father is ill and his presently in Germany for surgery.
so My wife had to come along with the keys and all the documents to the
property because my father is not around for now. It is not share
accommodation, it's all for you and your family.,The money
is not the actual reason
for the rent, but the need for someone to occupy the flat so as to maintain
the facilities in the apartment.Like i said, the point i am emphasizing on
is your ability to take good care of the apartment for us because that's the
only property we have left in the Country.
Apartment Details
Address : 118 Adelaide Terrace Perth WA 6000
Rent is $300pw and it include all utilities
Kindly fill out the rent application form attach to this email if you
are interested.
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.
