Hello ,
My name is Viviana Meloni and I am the owner of the apartment located at Kaiserstuhlstraße 28, 79106 Freiburg im Breisgau. I am very happy that you want to move into my apartment and hope that you will treat it like your own place. I would really appreaciate if you could answer me in english because my german is very bad. To be honest with you when I worked in Germany I spoked only in english.
The apartment has 1 bedroom, living room, kitchen, 1 bathroom, surface of 34m2 and is fully furnished. If by any chance you want to rent it unfurnished you can move all the furniture into my basement storage.
Is available for rent at Eur 250 per month including all utilities (Electricity/Telephone/Cable/ Internet/Water), for as long as you need. Recently renovated the apartment is in a very good condition, very clean and completely livable. The asking rent is lower then the average price requested in that area but not using a letting agent and not paying fees and commissions allows me to ask a lower rental price than others.
The apartment was bought by me in 2015, and I lived there until 4 months ago when my job contract ended and I returned home to Italy.
Also the apartment is near the public transportation, a gym, and other facilities. The apartment has a parking space for one car. I have spent a great amount of money with the apartment and my request is that you treat it like it was your own.
I am looking for a long term tenancy agreement as I will most definitely never return to Germany for permanent residency.
Hope you don't mind answering a few questions:
1. Who will be living in the property and what are their occupations?
2. Are there any children, pets or smokers who will live in the property?
3. How long will the initial tenancy be required for 6 - 12 months - longer etc?
Please let me know if you are seriously interested.
My Regards,
Viviana Meloni

To start the transaction with AirBnb you need to send me all this details:
Full name:
Address:
City:
Postal Code:
Country:
Mobile phone number:
Copy of ID Card or Passport:
Personal email:
Date you want to move in the apartment:
Rental period that you want to stay:
Now let me explain you how the transaction works:
After I receive all this details, I can go to the AirBnb office and start the renting procedure. When the keys and the rental contract will be in their custody, they will send you a delivery notification.
When you receive the delivery notification from AirBnb you will have to transfer to the AirBnb agent, assigned with this transaction for the amount we agreed ( 1000 EUR ). I inform you that your payment must be confirmed in 24-48 hours or early after the transaction was started othewise everything will be cancelled.
After you make the deposit you must send to AirBnb a picture with the transaction so they can know that you already made the deposit. When the money will be transfered into their bank account they will deliver the keys and the rental contract at your home address. If you will be satisfied with the apartment, you will sign the rental contract and if you will not like the apt you will be fully refunded by AirBnb and I will receive my keys and rental contract back. ONLY AFTER YOU WILL CONFIRM TO THEM THAT ALL IS ORDER AND YOU WANT TO SIGN THE RENTAL CONTRACT I WILL RECEIVE THE PAYMENT.
Thank's and have a good day
Very Important: Your money will be safe in AirBnb custody and I hope you read my e-mail very well, and know that you have to pay before you see the apartment because this is the safety policy of AirBnb.
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.
