Subject: Re: - $800 / 3br - Lovely home in Old Colorado City! (Colorado Springs CO)
really appreciate your email towards renting my house. My names are Jean K Kinley of the house located at 964 Columbine Ave, Colorado Springs, CO 80904. I use to live in the state before I got transfer down here to serve humanity in West Africa and this gave me reason to rent out the house. Presently, I work for USAID here in Nigeria(West Africa). USAID works in agriculture, democracy & governance, economic growth, the environment, education, health, global partnerships, and humanitarian assistance in more than 100 countries to provide a better future for all. USAID still faces an uncertain future. In many developing countries, HIV/AIDS and health issues are having a dramatic impact on social cohesiveness and economic strength. Nearly a quarter of the people living in developing countries, or about one billion people, live in absolute poverty. There are a host of other threats - ranging from terrorism to infectious disease and violent conflict - that challenge us and the developing nations we seek to help. Here is USAID Web address:- http://www.usaid.gov
However,the initial plan was to sell the apt which I tried to but the agents some times inflate the price and it takes longer to sell it. I am telling you this should in case you find the house on another website,that is the old advert. Just because of this reason and more we need to found some one to occupy the house. We also need a responsible person (With good credit) that can take very good care of it as we are not after the money but want some one to be living in the house and takre care of it. The rent is $800 and $600 for Security Deposit For this 3BR/2BAth/. Air Conditioner Dishwasher Walk-in Closet Refrigerator Vaulted Ceilings Washer/Dryer Cable etc...

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.
