We posted a "wanted" ad looking for a house to rent as we are urgent need. Got a text from someone saying that they have the perfect place, and told me to email him at
[email protected] for more info and pics of the house. So I emailed him, just got a response back with the same story about his missionary work and how he's living in New York at the moment with his family (the house is in Ontario), and that he will fedex the keys. I was suscpcious so I googled his email before I'm replying, and I'm glad I did. Thankyou to everyone who posted here!
The first fishy thing I noticed is that he said he's renting it because he doesn't want to leave such a beautiful home unuccoupied but it's just not selling, but then he added that he has no friends or family in the state that could move in .... And we don't have states in Canada. A lot of grammatical errors too ..... I'm so disheartened right now, thought for a moment that maybe I'd finally found a place to move into with my family :(
Glad I thought it was suspicious before I sent him any money though.
