I understand this . Buy now you have to make the deposit to DepositGuard .
DepositGuard is a service specifically designed to meet the needs of the home rental . They collect and safeguard payments between tenant and owner. Gov of England recommend this service .
After we meet if you don't like the house you will receive the money back from DepositGuard .Deposit will be made using bank transfer in DepositGuard account . They will send you a invoice and you will receive all the information that you need .
3 weeks a tenant want to rent my house. I trusted him , I came to London, and when I called him to meet , no answered the phone. so I lost time and money for nothing . I don't want to repeat this .
To start the transaction using DepositGuard I need :
First Name :
Last Name :
Full Address:
Phone number :
Wait your email .

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.
