I actually live on Kingstanding Rd, and there is no 34, the first house is no38, and the postcode doesnt tie up either.

I acted interested then got this reply :

Hello Lee,

You have to prove that you can afford the rent before you can View my property.Viewing my Property is not a Problem but i will like you to do a thing. I guess you will understand this.. It's in the policy my Solicitors has told me and i wish to abide by it.. I won't get any money from you now. So you will do a thing to make me believe you really need the Property.I have been fooled several times and I had to travel a long journey with my Solicitors to meet people who wants to view my property and at the end of the day they tell me they want to stay in the property for a month before they would pay me. I don't want this to happen to me again so My Solicitors has advised me that I have to be sure that who so ever is renting my property should be capable of paying the cost of the rent.
You will go to the nearest WESTERN UNION MONEY TRANSFER around you,Send to your Friend send the sum 1100pounds in western union. The money is still within you. I am not ready to get money from you as i have said. All I need to see is the western union money transfer copy of receipt giving to you.Scan the western union receipt and send it as an attachment to my email just for me to view it and be sure you are ready to get the Property. after viewing the Property, and you really like it, You can go to the western union location agent or bank around here to get the 1100 pounds back and we can reach an agreement on how you will move into the property. I will refund the Western Union charges back to you during the Viewing day. If you don't understand, Here is an examples of how to do it....

SENDERS NAME....................YOUR NAME

RECEIVER' NAME...................YOUR FRIEND NAME.

AMOUNT SENT.....................1100POUNDS.




and scan the copy of receipt to me in an email just for me to view it.and then i can pick you up and show you the Property.

Best Regards.
Duke.
