My Dear
How are you doing today, Hope great. My wife and I sends our heartfelt appreciation and warmth greetings to you.We went through your application and Most especially your mail, You gave us an inner peace of Mind that really got us going. Your Re-assuring mail that our home will be taken care of well as if it were yours is something that makes me want to rent to you.To sustain the Life we do not really require much. It takes only a little food,something to wear and a place to" lie down". The rich might have an abundance of this things,and the poor may have to struggle to obtain what they need.What difference there is, however, is equalized when life comes to its end-everything comes to naught.(Eccl.9:5,6).Thus Life to have meaning and worth, it cannot and should not simply consist of things that one can acquire or possess.Whether we are rich or poor,we do not have complete control over how long we may live or whether we will even be alive tomorrow. The bible clearly shows that Only God alone is the source of life and only he can grant faithful ones the real life or everlasting life without end in Heaven.You are just an accurate example of the fulfillment of psalm 23..which God has promised to make you lie down in grassy pastures and he further says :By well watered resting places He shall conduct you, verse 6 says surely Goodness and mercy shall follow you all the days of your life; And you will dwell in the house of the lord forever and ever.The Entrance keys and Documents will be sent down to you Via FedEx mailing service to the address you gave to me in the Application Form and you will receive it Next day after shipment, because FedEx deliver 24 hours, so that you can move in, you will have to make your Security deposit and first month rent to secure the house, so that we can ship the house keys and documents down to you at the confirmation of payment. You will be using VANILLA RELOAD NETWORK CARD to pay your rent until we are able to come down and open an account for the rent to be paid into. If we agree to rent to you, we will provide you with the information where you should make out your deposit so we can commence the shipment of the house keys and documents.We are considering renting to you, due to your manner of approach and prompt attitude in getting things done. Let us know if you are financially ready to secure the house now for your move in, so that we can conclude and know if we will be renting to you.Feel free to call my number is (323-638-4454) me for more information....
We expect to read from you soonest.
Remain Blessed
This person asks for a deposit payment via Western Union, MoneyGram, pre-paid credit card 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.
