Got in touch with this scammer through expatriates.com via a listing of a room in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. Procedure laid down in one of the documents prescribed upfront payment of first month's rent + deposit. Attached images were taken from a realtor website, the apartment was recently put up for sale. The owners mentioned in his email are not the real owners. Moreover the price paid for the apartment in the sale was EUR 717.500. Such an apartment should rent out for at least EUR 3000/month in total.
