Hi,
Thank you for your e-mail.

The apartment is fully furnished, could be rented unfurnished too-same price if unfurnished, all the utilities are included (water, garbage, electricity, heat..etc). Pets are allowed. The entire apartment is for rent and the price per month is KD 250.
Has elevator, washer/dryer in unit, A/C, dishwasher, parking--2 Car Garages, safe neighborhood, nice neighbors, very quiet, no noise, close to transportation and everything else.
Apartment Address:

Please tell me in short what exactly are you looking for and which are your requirements?
All the best,
Tina
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.
Hi again,
Just a few more info.The whole apartment is for KD 250 per month including all bills. I am asking for the first 2 month´s rent payment plus 1 month as security deposit, it's KD 750 in total.The security deposit is refundable. Equal size-2 bedrooms/2 bathrooms, 110 m2, elevator, non-smoker, balcony,washer/dryer in unit, A/C, dishwasher, parking--2 garage included in the rent,also internet ( Wifi ), safe neighborhood, nice neighbors, very quiet, no noise, close to transportation and everything else. It's fully furnished, but I can rent it unfurnished also, same price if unfurnished, will use a moving company if you want it unfurnished. As I said pets are allowed. Building has maintenance-included in the rent. The length of the lease is flexible: long/short term. I have to tell you that I am in Edinburgh,UK, I am here with a job contract for 5 years, I am in my first year now, I come to Kuwait every 6 months for 3 or 4 days and if you rent the apartment i will stay to a hotel. If you want to see the apartment i would need your address where the keys to be fedex-overnight to you, we will talk about the payment process for the KD 750 and about the other details, but, first, if there is something else that you want to know please feel free to ask.
Thank you,
Tina
