Rental Scammer - [email protected]

Here is the contract form. For reasons to enable us to confirm your booking before Saturday I will suggest you make your booking deposit through western union.

Below is the booking cashier information you need to make your reservation deposit via western union -

Receiver First Name:- Odis Last Name: Bryd
City: Belleville. State: MI. Zip Code: 48111

To confirm your deposit scan us the western union slip OR western union details (Sender Name, Address, Amount Sent, MTCN and Phone number) for booking confirmation receipt to be issued.

If you are able to make the deposit in time today so we can issue your booking confirmation receipt for you to come with it tomorrow to the apartment to check in.

Looking forward to read from you and to confirm your deposit.

Regards,
Romney Willoughby

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.
