Hi,
Thanks for your interest in my AD that I posted on craigslist.still available I need a tenant that will take proper care of the home very well as if the home belongs to him or her, a tenant that is very clean and is not into drugs, a tenant that is presently working that will not be delaying monthly payment, so kindly be professional to give me the opportunity in choosing a very good tenant, and I will be very happy if you are one of the best out there, the reason for this is that I've been forced to relocate by my company with my family to charlottesvill,VA due to my new role in the company and I am looking for a tenant that will stay a longer time in the home cos my wife want us to relocate to our new home in Alabama after we both retire from work.

The home is under lock and key and I am with the keys up here,You can drive in and check the house from outside,if you are interested you can let me know so that we can handle things in a more mature way, The keys and the paper work will be send to you via my company's official courier(FEDEX) if things works perfect between us but not until you complete the rent application form in order for me to be able to choose the best tenant as I said earlier well as the deposit which is equal to the first month rent, also my wife will need to go through the application as well, and lest I forget I need to know if you are disable in nature or not. The home utilities is inclusive in the house rent.

why i made my house so inexpensive because i believe everybody deserves a home both the rich and the poor am not after the money We just want our property to be incurred under a proper monitoring and make sure you conform to your promises.We are giving you this opportunity base on trust please do not disappoint us.

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.
