Hey,

Thank you for your interest in my apartment located in 770 Bay St,
Toronto, ON M5G 2J9. The apartment is in excellent condition and it's
just like in the pictures, very clean and very well taken. Honestly
from point of view I'm sure that you will rent it on spot. I'm not
looking to make a business or a profit with the apartment, I'm just
trying to find a good and trust person to take good care of the place.
The apartment has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. It is furnished but if
you want you can use your furniture and deposit mine in the storage
unit that is located near the building not far away. The rent is 1150
CAD/month with everything included (heat, hydro, water, electricity,
cable and internet-full package from Rogers, 2 parking spots, laundry
in-suite, washer and dryer). You will have full access to all the
amenities of the building. Pets are allowed. I stayed in the apartment
with my wife for 3 months. I'm a civil engineer and I work for a
company that has an auction for a project in construction in London,
United Kingdom, so my accommodation period in England will be about 4
years. Everything in the apartment is new so there will be no need for
repairs.

Thank you and look forward hearing from you!
Chris

PS : I attached you all the pictures that I have with the apartment (
as you can see everything is in absolutely perfect condition )

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.

Hello Michelle

Thank you for your reply. As I told you before the rent for 1 month will be 860CAD and damage deposit 860CAD ( last month) with no extra fees and you will have full access to all the amenities of the building. The price will not increase for the whole period that you will stay there. I would also like to know how many people will live in the apartment and also which rental contract do you prefer- 6 months or 1 year rental contract with option of renewal. The monthly payments can be wired to my Canadian Bank Account (TD Bank) or we can setup a payment method that is suitable for both of us.

The apartment is in excellent condition, you only need to receive the keys and the contract so you could check it out, and see if you like it. Since at this moment I'm in London, United Kingdom and obviously we need a safe way to complete this deal.The solution is a worldwide third party company called Airbnb (www.airbnb.com) ,they will provide assistance in handling the payment and delivery of the rental package

We use this company to see that you are an trusting and serious person. They will provide assistance in handling the payment and delivery of the rental package . With this procedure you will be able to check the apartment before I receive the payment. Please be aware that is NOT necessary for you to register with Airbnb given that I'm a registered user for 4 years and I've made over 30 transactions with them so far. They are really professional and they have great services.

My phone number is +44 203 2876 610 (if you are calling from Canada you may need to dial 011-44-203 2876 610). You can call me or e-mail anytime you wish.

Let me know if you are interested so I can provide with all the steps of this transaction . You need to know everything about this process before we get this started. I think is right for both of us.

Thank you and hope to hear from you soon!

Chris

He has furthermore went on in conversation to send me the very same phone number he has sent others. From the get go obviously I knew something was fishy with the name, the fact I did NOT respond to an add of his I keep all logs- which means I am unclear how he has even got my email address. He has offered me an apartment 680$ a month in a building where a bachelor is $1500. This is the THIRD person this week to try to screw me over for a place in toronto.
