I got something similar from virgin island st thomas.

Hello, the flat is available just ready to move in.

The apartment comes fully furnished (as in the pictures) . If you want to bring your own furniture i have the option of sending all my furniture into storage. No extra costs!

My name is Ronald Doman and i'm the owner of this house . I am American , living now in London, United Kingdom . I am 62 years old I just retired after working for 17 years with New City Realty Consulting LLC as a professional broker and also owner of the business. Now i sold it because of my healthy problems. You find more about me here :

I bought this apartment for my daughter Maria (aged 28) , during her studies in Virgin Islands, but now she's back home permanently (graduation), so I'm renting the house.

Unfortunately, my health doesn’t allow me to do any travel,the doctor said no airplane for 3 months, so I will not be able to come and meet you personally for a while. can make arrangements to rent the apartment from London (on my expense of course)

About the price : The rent price is 800$ per month including water,internet/TV Cable,management fees and 1 parking space. Also, a security deposit (bond) of 400$ is required and it will be refunded at the end of the contract (a 30 day notice is required).

If you have other questions about my house , just ask me.
Thank you, Ron

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.

Please contacta moferatorstor if you have a question or information about this post.



Please do not tell the scammer he is posted here.
