Hello,
My name is Elisa Fantin and I am from Denmark and the flat is still
available for rent. I had an aunt in UK and after her death she left
me her apartment from UK a few years ago.
The flat was redecorated last year and the flat is looking very
nice and clean. The property has a fully furnished kitchen,clean and
well tidy sitting rooms,laundry room,and fully furnished with home
utilities like: electric shower, Lounge,Vacuum Cleaner,Toaster, Owen
and microwave, dryer, iron, washing machine , refridgerator ,
dishwasher, powershower, heater, cable ready,tv set and dvd player,
internet connection, equiped kitchen and everything a house needs. I
m interrested in finding someone clean who can take care of this
house more then getting money from renting it if you know what I
mean.
Till last month the apartment was rented by some students from
Germany and now they left and the apartment is available agai n for
rent. The price I want is £460 per month and I am intrested in a
long term agreement,minimum six months!
If you have the money I could come in the next few days to show
you the apartment and maybe sign the rental agreementif you like it
but first I have to be sure you are honest you really do need a
place to live because two weeks ago a person from Inverness told me
he is really interested and he asked me to go to Inverness to meet
him and sign the rental agreement and when I arrived there no person
showed up to rent my place and I lost time and money for nothing.
I will wait for your e-mail
The thief will tell you that you can rent his accommodation only if you can prove that you have genuine interest. He will ask you send money by wire transfer (normally Western Union) to yourself or a member of the family to show that you have sufficient finances and that you are not a "time waster".
Another variation of this scam is that you need to send (by Western Union) money in order that the keys and other documents can be couriered to you
He will ask you to send him the transfer details.
Make no mistake ! Western Union Transfers can be picked up virtually anywhere in the world and with the minimum of identification. They are almost impossible to trace once the money has been collected. You will never get to see the accommodation or your money again.
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 Gumtree or similar listing sites. If you receive any requests from 'Landlords' asking for some kind of payment by Western Union 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.
