( This is fun!! )

Hello,

Thanks for your email, We personally own the property, And we want our property to be well taken good care of on our absent, and they are some rules and regulation in which i do give out to tenant willing to rent my house, so please don't disrespect my order, But if you are still capable of renting our place the rules and regulation goes this way.

You must keep my house clean including the surrounding, you must know the way in which you use the stove so as to avoid fire outbreak,you must not disturb the neighbor.We decided to rent out the property due to our transfer to West Africa on a Missionary Work in a church here called World Mission, So we are renting it out since we need someone to take good care of the property on my absent. And don't be surprise if you find the home with another site on a deference price, We plan to rent it through Real Estate before we found out that they are not trustworthy because they have a lot of houses to rent out and they added some money to the rent and the commission is not fear.

Have this in mind you must know the kind of person that I'm, But nevertheless I'm giving you this rules because of what corresponded between me and my last tenant. the keys and documents are with us here in West Africa... So i will need to ship them to you before you can occupy the house, But you can drive by the house any time to take a look at the area and surroundings of the place and peek through the windows if you don't mind.

So let me know if you are still interested so that i can forward you the Rental
Questionnaire to fill out...

Number of Bedrooms: 3
Number of bath: 1.0
Pets are welcome!!!
Rent: $600
Deposit:$400
Address: 206 S 2nd Street Silverton, OR.

Thanks and remain bless.
Regards.

(My reply)

Hi there James...

I did a drive by yesterday. Looks great! Can I ask why the rent is so cheap? You could probably get almost double that price for the house and the area. (Not that I am complaining! LOL!!)

Anyhow, what do I need to do to rent it? Please let me know. Thanks!

No doubt "James" also copy and pasted the application. These scammers demonstrate a shocking lack of originality.

Tell him you called the Marion County Assessor's office to verify that he was co-owner and they told you that David Potter is the sole owner of the property. Tell him they also researched the deed and his name is not on it.
