The scam works like this, they first list an amazing apartment at a great price and then you receive the below emails.
Hallo,
Ich bin Miquel Garcia und kurzem erhielt ich eine E-Mail von Interesse in meine Wohnung mit in Erich-Ponto-Weg 15 , Stuttgart.
Vielen Dank für Ihr Interesse. Ich kaufte diese schöne Wohnung vor 2 Jahren wenn ich in Deutschland mit meiner Arbeit (ich bin ein Forschungsingenieur), aber meine Firma beendet seine Projekte in Deutschland und jetz ich bin in Polen mit der eine neue Projekte zu meine Firma.
Die Wohnung ist nicht bewohnt.
Ich bin der einzige Eigentümer der Wohnung.
Es wurde renoviert im letzten Jahr sieht sehr schön und sauber.
Ich freue mich über Ihr Interesse an meinem Eigentum und ich freue mich auf eine zukünftige Zusammenarbeit und Freundschaft.
Sprechen Sie Englisch? Es wird einfacher für mich.
Mit freundlichen Grüßen
Then they switch to English and send you an email requesting a deposit for "earnest money"
Hi again, I'm Miquel Garcia, I appreciate your response.
For me it's difficult to manage personally the selling process of the property (including viewings with the potential buyers, etc.) so, I decided to hire an international real estate agency,Immo Aden LTD - http://www.immo-aden.com.They will act on my behalf and manage the sale of the property through all of its steps (the real estate commissions are paid by me).
Legal information on the status of property meaning the authenticity of all documentation related to the property has been checked by the agency; There are no fiscal affectations, the property was originally bought with cash;
You need to know that the agency sets the private viewings by appointment only, so I will give you the contact details of the agent assigned by the company to handle my transaction:
Daniel Olbrychsky
[email protected]
Please contact him, he will give you a brief of the standard procedure for scheduling a private viewing.
Also, for a detailed explanation you can visit their website.
Thank you, for any question, I am here to help you.

Then they send you a like to a polish bank account to do your deposit, but luckily it got shut down so today they sent me an email to make a deposit to their Barclay's UK account, but the idiot forget what name he told me and sent the email from "Daniel's" account...
