Hi again xxxxxxx,

I received your last email and after I discussed with my family we decided
to rent the apartment to you. I already signed an agreement with Airbnb
Global(http://www.airbnb.com/trust) to make all the necessary arrangements for you
to view the apartment before signing the lease agreement and sending the
payment to me as a landlord. I will cover the transaction and delivery
fees. I can proceed with the rental transaction ONLY if you agree with the
terms and conditions of Airbnb Global provided below.

To avoid any misunderstanding I will provide with all the steps of this
transaction through Airbnb Global

*I NEED TO BE SURE THAT EVERYTHING IS CLEAR FOR YOU SO PLEASE READ
CAREFULLY ALL THE STEPS OF THE TRANSACTION BECAUSE I CAN NOT CHANGE THEIR
TERMS AND CONDITIONS. ALSO I WILL PAY FOR THE TRANSACTION AND DELIVERY FEES
AND JUST IN CASE YOU CHANGE YOUR MIND I WILL NOT RECEIVE A REFUND FROM
AIRBNB!*

Airbnb Global are already in custody of the keys and all the necessary
documents. The ownership is already confirmed with the building management
from Canada and also with a Real Estate Professional Department in London,
United Kingdom. They just need my approval and your information so they can
proceed with the transaction.

-You need to provide me your contact details: full name, mailing address
(street, number, city and postal code), cell phone number, move-in date and
duration of lease preferred (e.g. 6 months or 1 year rental contract with
option of renewal). The lease agreement will be a standard one from the
Canadian government.

- I will inform Airbnb Global that I approve the rental transaction.
- Airbnb Global will send you a notification(via email) with the
transaction details, delivery details and payment information
- You need to send the amount of 1200$( 1st month of rent from the rental
contract and damage deposit-refundable in the last month of rent from
contract) to the the Airbnb Global ESCROW ACCOUNT, provided to you in the
notification.
THE PAYMENT NEEDS TO BE SENT WITHIN 24 BUSINESS HOURS AFTER YOU WILL
RECEIVE THE TRANSACTION DETAILS OR ELSE THEY WILL CHARGE ME AN ADDITIONAL
FEE.
- After the payment is completed you need to send the payment details to
Airbnb Global
- Airbnb Global will check the payment confirmation and start the shipping
procedure through UPS Air Cargo.
- You will receive the package (keys, apartment documents and lease
agreement) in 3 business days. After the keys will be delivered at your
address you will have 5 business days (inspection time) to check the
apartment. The inspection time will start from the moment you will be at
the building.
- If you decide to keep the apartment you just need to sign the lease
agreement and Airbnb Global can release the funds to me. If you don`t want
to keep the apartment you will receive a full payment refund including any
payment fee.

Please note that Airbnb Global can NOT release the funds without your
approval. You will have full control of the payment. They can release the
payment to me as a landlord just after they will receive the lease
agreement with your signature.

Using Airbnb Global involves three parties: me as owner, you as a potential
tenant and Airbnb Global as a responsible third party authorized to handle
this transaction. Airbnb Global works the same way as the escrow account on
which you place the deposit when you rent an apartment, except that instead
of a bank, we use Airbnb Global.

I can NOT rent the apartment any other way because the building management
has strict rules about renting private properties and they strongly
recommend me to use a professional property management company.


You can reach me any time at: +44.20.32904868 (if you are calling from
Canada you need to dial 011-44.20.32904868) or you can email me your
number and I can give you a call.

Let me know if you have the funds available (1200CAD$) so we can move
forward and e-mail me your full information I requested.


Thank you!


This Scammer will arrange to send you an Invoice -- Make no mistake, the Invoice will be fake !
If you are reading this because you have received such an invoice, kindly forward it to the address in my signature line and I will report the details to the appropriate authorities.

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