Subject: Re: Rent this single level 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom home
Greetings!
Thanks for your email.. The house is still
available. I
decided to rent the house because we are going to spend
more
time here in Malaysia, about 3 years.. Let me start by
introducing myself.I must confess that I am very new in
this
landlord business..However, My name is kent e. Evans. I
and
my wife own the house, Due to her job as a Medical
Doctor,
she works for American Red Cross Lutheran Hospital
Donor
Center, and now she have been transfer to Malaysia to
work
in a branch in Malaysia. We spent less time in the
States so
we could not get a hold on any Realtor to handle this
rent
issue, although it was when We knew how long we are
going to
stay in Malaysia that We decided to rent out the
house.
However, the initial plan was to sale out the house.
which
we tried, but sometimes the agents inflates the prize
and it
takes longer to sell. The utilities are included in
the
rent, because of this reason and more we need a
responsible
person
that can take very good care of it as we are not
after
the money , but want it to be clean and for you to take
it
as if it were yours.

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.
