Hello,
Thanks for your interest regarding our house. It is available for rent and we are renting, to a responsible, neat person who can treat the house as his or her own.
Well the house has been for sale with an agent before we decided to put it out for rent which is why we put it out for rent and it has been withdrawn from the agent, I am saying this if at all you find any sign in the house while driving by so you don't have to contact them as they do not have access to the house again.
The main reason why the house is for rent is that We got transfer from my place of work to West Africa, to head the Africa wing of our NGO, reaching out good things to the orphanage. Here is the site (http://www.handsatwork.org/vision-mission-values/) for more details about why I am here in Africa.
We will be away for 3 years or more that is the main reason I had to take my family along with me and we cant leave the house for 3 years, that’s why we really want good people that can take very good care of it so that we will be very happy when we get back home and we will still be good family friends, so if you are interested in taking good care of our property, then my family will be ready in accepting you as our new tenant who will be fully in charge of our house. If you really impress us by taking good care of our house then you will be allowed to stay as long as you wish okay.....
All utilities are included like: Water,Gas, Electricity, washer & dryer, dishwasher, cable, Air Conditioning and lots more.

Take Note: Attached along with this email are few pictures of the house but I would like you to drive-by the house to view the exterior and neighborhood of the house, so i can ship the keys to you for you to be able to view the inside and move in immediately. I would have really love to ship the keys to someone i trust in the state but the only person i have there has just informed me that he traveled to GERMANY for a professional course so i don't have anybody there right now and i don't want to make use of any third party that is why i am handling the property myself.
Get back to me asap so i can forward you the rent questionnaire.

Thanks and 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.
