Hi guys,
I've received a suspicious mail from an english guy about an apartment in Birger Jarlsgatan 20. He wants that I send him money, for the first month and the deposit (300+600), by western union!!!
Obviously, I have refused his proposal!
I would like to present you a question: If I find an apartment on the internet, which is the best way to rent it since I live in an other country? Can I propose to the home owner to wait till my coming to pay the lease?
I'm looking for a furnished room with private toilet from the 1st March till the end of July because I'm going to work to the KTH for 5 months. If someone could help me, please contact me. My email is ziogiggi@live.it

This person contacted me and I'm rather sure it's a fraud. I've looked up the e-mail in google and I found these links about her.

http://www.askedu.net/houserental/roommate.asp?u=6543
http://www.finlandforum.org/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=60608

In the second link she apparently "rents" a house in Finland too......!

I also quote her e-mail:
