Scam!


Me and another pharmacy student is looking for an apartment to rent together after christmas and i got in contact with a guy who had a big central apartment for a very cheap rent. He wrote (in english) that he had moved to London with his wife and needed someone relieble to look after his apartment while he was gone a couple of years. It did sound too good to be true but i still wrote to him. He toled me the key was with him in London and that he would send it as soon as i payed, a deposition + the first month of rent, by the western union. Yeah right! I googled it and found at that this is a new scam which is really growing in Sweden especially among student who can be desperate for a place to live. I called the police and gave them all the details. It's a small chance they will catch him but at leats i've done what i could!
