BEWARE OF SCAM TARGETING PEOPLE ADVERTISING RENTALS

 

Please be alert for email scams where the email is not specifically addressed to you and is from a correspondent who says he/she wants to rent something he/she doesn’t describe, at unspecified dates, sight unseen, and is eager to pay in advance. Particularly beware of advance payment by cashier checks and money orders as these frequently turn out to be stolen. A sample:

 

Hello, My name is Lizzy, am 25 years old. I am a very tolerant person, down to earth and open minded. I am looking for accommodation, I want to find out whether your rental is still available. Please get back to me with the features and any other extra details i might need to know and also i need to know the deposit (exact amount) that i will be paying before i arrive, I look forward to hearing from you ASAP.
