Hello,

My name is Dean Carla and I'm the owner of the apartment (2bed/2bath) located at: 712 Sahali Terrace, Kamloops, BC V2C 6T2, Canada. The apartment is just like in the pictures attached and it's in excellent condition. I've bought the apartment for me and my family and I never thought that I will rent it because we really want to move there. I work in petroleum production as a chemical engineer and the company I work for they had a project there in Canada that was suppose to be for the next 10 years so I've decided to buy an apartment for me and my family. Unfortunately the project I was working in Canada has been cancelled or it's on stand-by because of the Government of Canada. Therefore I was moved to the United Kingdom department where I already signed a job contract for the next 6 years.
The monthly rent for the whole apartment is $945 utilities included (heat, hydro, water, electricity, maintenance fees, 2 parking spots, laundry in-suite, washer and dryer also included, cable and internet). In case repairs are need in the apartment the building management will help you and I will cover the costs. Anyway I don't think it will be the case because the apartment is new and renovated and also it has insurance. Pets are allowed. I'm looking for someone to rent anywhere from 3 months to 6 years or more. I'm interested in finding the right person for the apartment that will take good care of the place. I know how the prices are in the area but I'm not looking to make a business or a profit with the apartment. If you decide to sign the lease agreement the monthly payments can be sent through E-transfer, Bank Wire or any other payment method that is convenient for you. You can also rent the apartment furnished or unfurnished and the rent will NOT increase.
Please NOTE that I will use a professional property management company because it's the first time I'm renting an apartment and I think it's the best way for both of us. They will make the necessary arrangements for both us.
I'm really serious about the apartment so please make a description of yourself so I can talk with my wife and make a final decision.
Also I don't have time to waste so I will wait for your email ONLY if you are really interested!
Thank you for your time!


Regards,
Elizabeth and Dean Carla

I have just received the exact same letter offer of a rental apartment that I inquired about, from this same email address, [email protected] this was also from Dean and Elizabeth Carla
The apartment was way lower than market value and first I thought the the so called landlord was not informed as to the value of his rental, and something led me to start investigating today, leading me here to this website after googling "airbnb global", and the scam warning post came up, imagine my surprise to find that this scam has happened to others and the scammer is using the same email, he has my phone # and has called me 4 times, I have received 2 more emails for payment, these payment emails are very fake....this is my first time encountering a scam and wondering what I should do, can they hack into my email?
