You can come and view the unit' but it has to be on Saturday,which is on due to the current guest! she's checking out on Saturday, So you can come on Saturday afternoon after the cleaning or Sunday morning. But i can't assure you if the property will still be available by then, cause we have more interested applicant right now.So it would be appreciable if you can go through the lease agreement form now and make the reservation deposit. With that' i can secure and lock down the unit under your name' and it's 100% refundable if you are not comfortable with what you see on Saturday.So let me know if you are ready to make the reservation now.
Thanks
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.
