Hej,

Unfortunatly an other name to add : Anital Williams

pretending working in London and want a security deposit even if you didnt see the flat. Pretending to rent out a 50m² flat with bedroom, kitchen, livingroom, all included for only 4000Kr/month.

That is what he wrote:

"To get the place reserved so that i can post the keys to you by DHL courier service you will have to sign a rental agreement with me..so you will have to transfer the payment to me herein the UK via western union money transfer,but before the payment you and i will will have to sign a rental agreement so i will need the details bellow to forward to my lawyer for the preparation of the rental agreement.
your name.........
your date of birth...
your move in date
your move out date....
your passport id number...
your address to post the keys after the contract and the payment.....
So i will be waiting to read from you so that we can finalised everthing ASAP."

BEWARE!!

[Christine7]

I wonder if someone has got tricked by these people. Anyway, friends, be aware! It is NOT possible that a person in UK is renting out a room in Stockholm!!! Don't let yourself to be cheated!

Just another set of names:

MariaJohanna,
mails from Kre-beat
Richard

Most of the mails I got from these persons do contain a lot of .....'s, so it's easy to recognize them. And what's also a tactic from them; say that they join a lot of peace-missions in africa.

This one seems another name:
 Mcluke Peterson (pmcluke@yahoo.com)

He told me to pay in an UK account before meeting him or seeing the flat, of course I didnt do it.

Hi guys!

I also met them and they are at blocket.se and gnetagalten too. There they renting a flat in Hammarby sjöstad and the names are Abigail Bennington and Julia Potridge, from Manchester.
Julia Potridge says she is a real estate agent of Abroad Rentals Ltd which is also fake.

I think everyone should be Aware of It..

I receive a lot of emails just to fraud every day. just look at the list below to see
how many items day use.

1- An international company is hiring and you should pay for some official form.
2- A award notification, and you should pay for money transfer.
3- there is a flat and you should pay the deposit.
4- Collecting mony for poor people around the world.

I just got contacted by another one: Caroline Brimaxx using the e-mail: brimaxxc@yahoo.com. She's offering a flat on Kammakargatan for 8000 SEK. She says that she's moving to Africa and mixing swedish and english very bad in her e-mails.
Take Care!

Anyway, if the first mail describes well the appartement, it's obviously a fake.

Every honest response i was given was just a "mail me back if you're interested, I have a room if you still need one".

Dont be tricked :]

I got a mail named nfacy@yahoo.com . who asked me to pay money via west union

[littlegreenfrog]

It seems that it's very serious. I have contacted someone a little suspicious like this also but I am not sure but she never wrote her name at the signature of her email and always started with Hi, how are you today, always without any exception. her email is this kinrereje@googlemail.com and she's in UK as well. Her apartment was in Kista. Since I am not in Stockholm I couldn't go to her apartment and check it out. Her number was this +447045767341. She didn't ask me money.

It's good to be cautious but I hope this doesn't make us to be suspicious to anyone in that case we should close the website.
