Who called from 3392301739

I was wondering the same thing; sent our name, current address, and phone number on their phony rental application.  I'm so angry that I fell for this!  Though I never would have sent money without having actually going through the house and meeting someone in person. Just wish I had seen red flags sooner.  It bothers me that these scumbags have some of our personal info.

Yes I thought this looked suspicious too. on Nantucket $2000 /month. Same info Saw on craigslist. Same speil...why would someone give so much info to a stranger??? Also when they don't spell correctly and say god bless.Ughhh I thought I had a deal!

Thank God that I decided to look this man up before sending him any more information. His very detailed emails seemed suspicious so I decided to look him up. It was a home too good to be true for our military family getting relocated to the Minot, ND area. Don't fall for this sick creep's scam! What a disgrace! Here's the exact email that he sent me:

Hello,

We are pleased that you have an interest in our house, our lovely home is still available for lease and we want responsible adults/family that are neat and also believe that they have what it takes to take care of our house as if it were theirs. My wife and I initially had it up for sale but had a change of mind in leasing it out ourselves because the agent that was in charge of our rental property was asking too much of an agent fee and also making it difficult for people who cannot afford the rent, stay away from renting my house.

The reason why our house is up for lease is because I got transferred from my place of work to Baltimore MD, I will be away with my family for at least 4 to 5 years because of the love I have for them, I have decided not to sell our house and also assuring them that we only have few years to spend here and will be willing to lease it out to person/family who is willing to assure us of taking absolute care of our home and pay their rent on time.

I will start by telling you more in regard me and my family. I have a daughter named Melisa (21yrs) who attends University of Baltimore MD as a medical student, she has a lot going for her and she is also down to earth in all that she does to keep us happy and when she is back home on vacation, she also assist her mom in the house work when am at work. I work as a Robotic Programmer & Welder/Fitter here in Baltimore MD and got married to a lovely wife who is a member of Joyce Meyer Ministries .

We will be very pleased if we can find the right tenant to rent our home, a person who is a clean freak and does not tolerate anything that has to do with dirt... we also would like to know more about you and your family, your renting experience and how long and when you plan moving into our home.

After I replied to him, he was so quick to return my email with an APPROVED APPLICATION title. His reply is what really set the red flag for me, who would ask for a money transfer before sending the lease paperwork? SCAM!  The email that followed read:

My wife and I have gone through your application and have found it satisfactory, so we will say at this point “Congratulations" you are now our tenant and we want you to always pay your Monthly rental fee on time to avoid any form of embarrassment. I will be receiving the refundable security deposit along with the 1st Month rent fee paid to me through a wire transfer so as to secure our home for you and take it off market which automatically makes no one contact us for the same house you are renting. I will also be signing on the Lease/Rental Agreement in a hard copy paper before shipping the keys along with the hard copy paperwork to your present home address. Can you please re confirm your present home address? And upon receiving the deposits we will secure our home for you and take it off market and get the keys shipped to your present home address along with a tracking # to let you know the exact time you will be receiving the package. Please do confirm your present home address by sending it again through the email so that we do not make mistake when shipping to you. When do you plan moving into our home when you receive the keys; Let me know immediately so that we can make arrangement on your move in date. Get back to me for payment information.



Remain Blessed.

Yes, it is sad that they act like they are Christians!  It gives those of us who are, a bad name.  My friend emailed them back and said they need to repent or they will face the rath of God!! I told her to tell them we would be praying for them!!

They scammed us too, but we checked on it before doing anything and then I see this posting!!

NOT GOOD PEOPLE!

I answered a rental ad at postlets.com (Zillow) and received an email from Mr Mark Johnson & Family.  I reported him to Zillow's fraud department and the listing was pulled.  Somebody must be falling for this as he keeps trying to get money by reinventing himself.  I'm guessing that American dollars go a long way in Africa.

It's obvious you don't know enough about American culture to pull this
off.  You've been reported to and are being investigated by the proper
authorities.

Interest in your Postlets listing    


I love this house. I'd like to see pictures of the pool. Who would be
responsible for the maintenance of the pool? Also, how far of a walk is
it to beach access? Is the beach bulkheaded? How much jet noise is
there at the house? Thank you.
