Subject: Re: Stunning Single Family Home in Boston
To: Con Warner
Hello,
It's my great pleasure that you are interested in my lovely home for rent. My name is Glen T Cote, former US Marine Sgt. served in the 3rd Battalion, 25th Marine Regiment that Patrols the Anbar province, Iraq, before now me and my family resided in this house and presently we have moved out due to my transfer as a matter of my profession, where i work as a volunteer with Catholic Revival programmed at the Ermita de San Antonio (St. Anthony Hermitage) here in Tennessee and my wife who is a missionary dealing with Bible Translation and literacy worldwide. If you notice, you will discover that the price we are offering is far below standard price, this is enough for you to know that we are not after the rental fee but the absolute care for the property. We will be serving for a long term and now our home is locked up now and presently we have found a new home here which we will be staying for a very long which might last 5 years in Maryville, TN.
More so, i want you to note that all i want is a very honest and neat person, so i will solicit for your absolute understanding and maintenance of this home and want you to treat it as your own, i am with the keys and documents here with me, further more you have to undergo some processes before i could be willing and convince to rent my home to any tenant. I also want you to let me have trust in you as i have always stood on my word.

Rental/Lease comment:

Looking forward to hear from you so we can proceed on the documentation and shipment of the keys to you.
Jason H Cote.
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.
