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.

Thanks for your email.

I confirm to you that the keys of the apartment will be handed to you by me on your arrival date..

On request, i have attached the Booking Agreement form/payment process with this message, fill it and send it back to me with a scanned copy of the funds transfer confirmation. After receiving them from you, i will forward you a receipt of payment to confirm your reservation.

MODE OF PAYMENT WESTERN UNION® MONEY TRANSFER TO:

Here are the information needed to make the payment directly to my accountant:

RECEIVER`S NAME: BLESSING GUIAKORA ( ACCOUNTANT )
RECEIVER`S ADDRESS: 45 RUE DES FRANCS BOURGEOIS, 75004 PARIS, FRANCE.

You can visit www.westernunion.com to locate any outlet close to your location.. You should send the funds via WesternUnion® Money Transfer.. It`s Easier, Faster and Reliable and you`ll have to Locate the Western Union Agent outlet to do it in person (cash)..

Note: Is only when payment has been made before i can secure your dates.

After payment has been made please do send me details of the payment and the signed booking agreement form to my Email for my records.

Waiting to receive the above from you in order for me to confirm your reservation.

Bailey Louis
