I posted a room for rent and received the exact same email, though a picture was included, I think she, whoever she is is trying to steal peoples identity. Here's last email received:
Hi again ,
Thanks once again for the quick reply,I would have loved to call You
but am leaving now to see my sick uncle in Finland ,i can only
communicate through email but I
will, whenever i get there but before that i will want to secure the
place,I am very happy meeting a person like you,It 's nice reading
from you again and i will never
ever want to loose the room even without seeing the place ,I will want
You to know that i am okay with the cost ,if none is included
again.....
I got to believe that the person that one wants to live with matters
most,i believe that you'll be a nice person,I just have my
dressers,computer table,kitchen
utensils and a queen size bed,2 big luggage's and my car to be shipped....
I got a message that my uncle is sick in Finland,i hope have already
mention that before and i have to go see him but i am making plans to
secure place so that when i
come back i'll just move in into the place we are talking about. and
with the way we ve communicated,I am okay with you and i want you to
know that i don't want to
make any travel plans without securing a place down now,I will be
signing a year lease for the start if you are okay with that,so i ve
let my uncle understand more
about you and the place,He is really comfortable and he told me that
it is a nice area he had lived in the states before and he said that i
should not afford to loose
your place also he said that i should try and make sure that i hold
down the place,so i thought of it and i will be making payment to hold
down the place and the mode
of payment will be by United State Certified Money Order or cashier
check so pls let me know if this mode of payment is ok by you.
And if YES pls provide me with the following information to get the
payment to you.Your full name as it will appear on the payment,your
work place address to ensure
delivery in your hands through regular mails or a courier service,your
phone number on the package to avoid package missing in transit. I
will prefer to send to your
work address because you will always be available at work from morning
till evening but if home address it will be sitting in your mail and
no one will be at home to
receive the package.And if you don't receive package at your office
address then I guess your home address will be good for the delivery
right ? But to avoid any delay
of you receiving at home then I guess any address will be fine as long
as you will be able to receive it.I will be moving to your place weeks
in April and help me take off the advert off craigslist so that other
rentors won't contact you ,Kindly get back to me with this requested
address contact information so that we can proceed asap bye for now..
Feel free to ask me any question(s) you have okay and please help me
take the advert off craigslists..
Thanks...
