Subject: RE: Rental & Tenancy Approval
I thank you for your e-mail.
Do not use the John Paul account anymore because he is out of town and you should pay the deposit to this bank account instead:
BANK NAME: LA CAIXA
BANK ADDRESS: CALLE BENITO PEREZ GALDOS 91, 35500 ARRECIFE. SPAIN
ACCOUNT NAME: LEO TSOSTI ZUMA
ACCOUNT NUMBER: 2000064071
SWIFT CODE: CAIXESBBXXX
IBAN NUMBER: ES12 2100 4359 1720 0006 4071 Bank Details Noted - Michelle Banks
Personal address of Leo: Calle de las Huertas, 34, 28014 Madrid Spain
Phone number: 0034631077203
If you want to use money gram this is Paul's personal address and he will go to an agent in Madrid to receive the money and not a bank:
Calle de la Basílica 22, 28020 Madrid, Spain
phone number: 003463235546
Your sister can come and receive the keys after the payment has been received for the deposit.
Thank You.
Irene
This person asks for a deposit payment via Western Union, MoneyGram 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.
