Die Wohnung ist voll ausgestattet genau wie auf den Bildern eingerichtet und renoviert. Ebenfalls sehr wichtig sind die Versorgungsunternehmen für Wasser, Strom, Heizung, Gas, Internet, Kabel, Spülmaschine, Müllabfuhr, im Preis von 260 € pro Monat inklusive und ich denke, es ist bequem für uns beide. Alle Rechnungen werden von mir bezahlt werden und man muss nur das Geld für die Miete zu zahlen jeden Monat. Die Kaution beträgt 520 €, und Sie bekommen es zurück, wenn die Wohnung (Sie müssen mir mindestens 1 Monat Kündigungsfrist) überlassen, zu entscheiden.

Hello,
 
Thank you for your interest , I bought this apartment for my son while he was studying , but now he's back home permanently in the UK , so I do . Rent the place for unlimited time Before we go any further, I want to live through you , like how many persons you intend in the apartment, something , know what your job is , how old you are and how long you stay . The apartment is fully equipped set up exactly like the pictures and renovated. Also very important are the utilities of water, electricity , heating, gas , internet, cable , dishwasher, garbage disposal , the price of 260 € per month inclusive and I think it is convenient for both of us. All invoices will be paid by me and you just have to pay the money for the rent every month. The deposit is 520 € , and you get it back if the apartment ( you have to give me at least 1 month notice) left to decide . You can find my furniture, or you can also make your own if you prefer . I am a neuro-oncology doctor from the UK . I can make arrangements to rent the apartment from here quickly and easily. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
 
Best Regards,


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.

Hello,

Thank you for your quick response and for your kind email. If you are still interested I agree to rent it to you. I promise you that you will love the place. You seem like a nice person, and I can assure you that we have no problems.
Of course you can before talking further details because you do not know to rent an apartment to see, you have not seen the apartment. I am ready to visit the key that corresponds to you and your needs.
The delivery time for the keys (apartment keys, intercoms, alarm), and display key (signed by me) is done through an authorized courier and using a Moneybookers escrow account to ensure that we can trust each other.
With Moneybookers escrow account includes three parties: me as the owner, you as a potential tenant and Moneybookers as a responsible third party is entitled, said the proper conduct of the transaction.please on the link to the website Moneybookers Click where you will find the method: https :/ / www. moneybookers.com / app / help.pl? Escrow s = & l = EN

Here, the method is explained:

The escrow account Moneybookers works the same way as the escrow deposit if you rent an apartment, except that instead of a bank, we use Moneybookers. Of course, no one can touch that money until you can not return the key.
The escrow deposit, the first month's rent + rent guarantee (260 + 520 = 780 EUR), must be submitted by bank transfer, to allow the escrow account.
Delivery will be made by licensed companies such as DHL, Federal Express or UPS are carried out and it will be sent by Moneybookers in your home.
To initiate the process, I need the following information about you:
- Free Shipping (address where you will be served with the package) and the recipient's name;
-Delivery Schedule (local time "to be at home to receive the package and sign the acknowledgment of receipt);
- Telephone;
You do not need to open an account with Moneybookers, because this transaction is a rental and the landlord must go to the transaction, please send me your personal information, and I will open a case with them immediately.
Then Moneybookers will send you the keys and already filled out the contract with your data, you have 14 days apartment since the arrival check if you want to keep the house, they give me the money, and we go from there, if you do not keep the apartment, send the keys / contract back to Moneybookers and you get your money back.
This is in the contract I signed moneybookers letter.
The MoneyBookers fees will be paid by me when I initiate the process, you have to pay for the transfer if you pay the deposit.
I can, if you move forward you a copy of the lease agree empty.
I wait your quick reply and if you agree, I will provide your full name, shipping address and telephone number (cell phone if possible) need so I can initiate the rental transaction offer offer Moneybookers.
Thanks again for your time and we look forward to hearing from you soon

Hello,

Please go to Western Union office and the payment of € 780 to Moneybookers means:

Moneybookers Agent: Tom Mara
Address: 180 Caledon Street
Postcode: E6 2EX
City: London
Country: United Kingdom

The Commission for Western Union transfer is approximately 3% -7%. I give you a useful advice, if you are asked by the Western Union agent for the purpose of transfer, you can specify that you want the money to send a friend, because it transfers for any commercial purpose an additional fee of 10%.

After payment please send me the payment confirmation from Western Union.

Have a good day!
