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, Here are the flat pictures attached with this mail. There is
nobody living in the flat at the moment. The apartment has just been
refurnished. You need not to come with your own furniture. A girl has
reserved a room in the flat but she hasn't moved in. She's 23years
old. To proceed with the rent, i will only need your detail for the
contract to be prepared and sent to you via e-mail, you will have to
print,sign and scan it back to me here so that i can also get it
signed then you will have to make the payment to me here via money
gram and come back to me here with the payment receipt as the payment
prove so that i can get the flat keys posted to you immediately via
DHL courier and you will receive it 24 hours after i post it from here
so that you can move in .
Here are the details needed for the contract to be prepared:
Your full names,
Present address
Date of birth,
date to move in and out of the flat,
Phone number.
Thanks and hope to hear from you soon so that the contact can be
prepared and sent to you soon.
