Jälleen kerran uuttera huijari liikkeellä: Douglas Anna Wambui vuokraa ja myy Helsingin keskustasta todella edulliseen hintaan asuntoja. Ilmoittelle ainakin Oikotiellä ja Jokakoti.fi:ssa. Hän vastaa sähköpostiin erilaisilla tarinoilla, miksi asunto on niin halpa. Tässä yksi esimerkki:
Hello,
My name is Douglas Anna Wambui and I just got an e-mail regarding your interest in my apartment in Kalevankatu 26, 00100 Helsinki, Finland. Why is the price so low? I have just divorced from my husband (after confessed that he had fallen in love with another woman, I decided to divorce), and I had to move to Switzerland. I don't want to sell the apartment because I have a 16 years old son who will com to study in Helsinki when he will be a student. So all that I want to do now is to rent the apartment to some nice and responsible persons, who will take good care of the apartment for the next years. I have won the apartment after the sharing of the of marital properties. I am the single owner, the apartment is fully paid and there is no legal problem. The apartment is unoccupied since I no longer live there.
I would like to know more details about yourself : How old are you, if you are married, if you have a pet, if you have a car, occupation etc.. I must say that I have nothing against the fact that you're a student and I love pets and they are welcome in the apartment. You should also know that I appreciate the sincerity.
In addition to the rest, here is some information about myself and about the apartment, so we knew a little more.
The apartment is exactly like in the pictures, fully furnished, fully equipped, so you won't need anything to move in (you can also bring your own things furniture if you have). It has been recently renovated. The monthly rent is 685 Euro (for the whole apartment), utilities included (water, electricity, internet, cable, one parking space). You can rent the apartment for an indefinite period, but for a minimum period of three months.
About myself, I am 57 years old, single woman, and as mentioned above I am living in Schlieren, Switzerland. You can move into the apartment the same day you receive the keys. I'm already in Switzerland, but I already though at a solution so you can get the keys and visit the apartment to make an impression.
I appreciate your interest in my apartment and I'm looking forward to our future collaboration and friendship.
Sincerely,
Anna
PS: In order to know each other better and for a good collaboration I can send you a copy of my Id, Passport, Driving License, Engineer Degree, pictures of me, etc. I have attached some pictures of the apartment for you.
Luonnollisesti tuo "ratkaisu" päästä katsomaan asuntoa, on laittaa rahapantti Western Unionin kautta. Toivottavasti moni levittää tätä, koska aina on esim. nuoria enisasunnon vuokraajia/-ostajia jotka voivat mennä tähän vipuun. Kuvat, muuten, ovat aina samat, mutta" eri" asuntoja ja eivät ole suomalaisesta asunnosta.

Siitä on oikeasti hujari, olkaa varovaisija!!!!!!!! Onneks ei hänellä oli onnistu mun kansa
Tässä kyseisen huijarin uusin ehdotus vuokraa huonistoa Kalevankau 26 Helsinki, täysin HUIJARI VAROKAA!! Ei onnistunut myös minun kanssa!!!
Toinen vaihe::
Thank you for your prompt response. If you are still interested I agree to rent my apartment to you. I can promise you that you will love the place. You seem to be a nice person and I can assure you we will not have any problems. Obviously you will have to see the apartment before discussing further details because you cannot rent an apartment that you haven't seen. I am willing to send you the keys so you can visit it and see it suits your needs.
The delivery for the keys (apartment keys, interphone, alarm) and viewing permit (signed by me), will be made through an authorized courier and using a Moneybookers Escrow Account to make sure that we can trust each other.
Using Moneybookers escrow account involves three parties: me as owner, you as a potential tenant and Moneybookers as a responsible third party authorized to proper conduct of the transaction.Please click on the link to the Moneybookers website where you can find the procedure explained : https://www.moneybookers.com/app/help.pl?s=escrow&l=EN
Here is the procedure explained :
The Escrow Account Moneybookers works the same way as the escrow account on which you place the deposit when you rent an apartment, except that instead of a bank, we use Moneybookers. Of course, nobody can touch that money until you have not returned the keys.
The escrow deposit, the first month's rent rental guarantee (685 685 = 1370Euro), must be filed by bank transfer to activate the escrow account.
The delivery will be by a licensed company such as DHL, Federal Express or UPS and it will be sent by Moneybookers at your home.
To initiate the process, I need the following information about you:
-Shipping Address (address where you want the package to be delivered) and name of recipient;
-Delivery Schedule (local time you'll be at home to receive the package and sign the receipt);
-Phone number;
Then Monkeybookers sends you the keys and the contract already filled with your details; You will have 14 days to inspect apartment since the arrival date; If you want to keep the apartment, they give me the money, and we go on from there; If you do not keep the apartment, you send the keys/contract back to Moneybookers and you get your money back.
This will be in writing in the moneybookers contract I will sign.
The MoneyBookers fees will be paid by me when I will initiate the procedure, you will only have to pay for the money transfer fees when you pay the deposit.
If you agree to move forward I can send you a copy of my ID's for reassurance, and a copy of the rental contract in blank.
I'll wait your quick reply and if you agree, I will need your full name, shipping address and your phone number (mobile if possible) so I can initiate the moneybookers rental transaction.
Thanks again for your time and look forward to hear from you soon.
Sincerely,
Anna
Jeps, ei menny läpi kyllä täälläkää päässä :D Täsmälleen sama viesti tuli ;)
Suomalaisia asunnon tarvitsijoita käytetään jo röyhkeästi hyväksi! Eikö tällä asumisen kanssa rahastamisella ole enää mitään rajaa?
Tämähän vain osoittaa että vielä on olemassa niitä jotka uskovat uskovaisten mummojen olemassaoloon ja että kyllä se rommaus tulee kun vain jaksaa odottaa. Ei kai muuten tämänkaltainen huijaus voisi edes ajatustasolla onnistua

Hey guys!

The story sounded like a plot of a Hollywood drama.
I was wondering why the rent was so cheap (its a very good spot in Vienna), so I googled her Name and found your finish site (suomi24 and one other "iltasanomat") with all your posts...
So thank you guys, you saved my ass :-D Cheers to you!
One last question? Why is there a finish footer in the mail? Is it a finish gang who is trying to trick people?
Best wishes form Vienna, Daniel
PS: I am wondering if the pictures of the flat are always the same :-) The site where I found the offer is still online on the austrian real estate plattform.

You fave to copy & paste the whole address, to get to the page. (no trick ;-)
Top-Right, click on the picture to see the others. Even the discription is written in perfect german. Professional work...
Hi Daniel! Good to hear that this story helped you to avoid getting swindled. Indeed, these people are lazy and use the same e-mail address over and over again, in various countries, so they are increasingly easy to spot via Google. I know this same address has been used to advertise fake apartments in Helsinki, Brussels, and now Vienna as you said.
The Finnish e-mail address and footer are there because they come as default when you use Wippies as your provider. I would be very very surprised indeed if these people were Finnish. Nigerian would be my bet. Of course, it is possible that they have Finnish helpers to draft the ads in Finnish, but on the other hand that kind of text only has to be translated once and then they can circulate it around.
If they indeed were Finnish, surely they would answer to prospective renters in Finnish? That would guarantee that they would be able to swindle many more people; loads more would be taken in if they received a reply in their own language. When people receive a reply in Finnish, they get suspicious.
Anyway, good luck in your apartment hunt! :-)
"When people receive a reply in Finnish, they get suspicious."
Sorry, brain not working properly! Meant to write that when people receive a reply in ENGLISH, they get suspicious.
Kukaan ei osta nyt mitään ja aina on kaupan vahvistaja mukana joten kukaan ei voi menettää mitään jos ei rahaa anna ennen niin sanottua todellista kauppaa.
Vuokra tilanteissa on nähtävä molemmat yleensä.Tai on otettava välittäjä peliin.
Älkää aina luottako kaikien myyjien tai vuokraajien tajontaan.
Varsinkaan nyt kun ajat on jo toiset ja kukaan ei osta mitään.
hey there, thank you as well to have posted this. I'm looking for an aparment in Zurich Switzerland and on one page there was as well exactly the same advertisment... I got suspicious and looked up the name and met your page...thank you very much.
Theres another one!!!!

Hello! I actually don´t speak finnish, but I also falled almost. We wanted to rent a apartment in Vantaa, Pakkala. There were very beautiful pictures about the apartment, we went to see the district and there were no house looked like this. She also wanted to send the keys with moneybookers. We are so lucky that we found thios topic! I think we should make an apllication to police, or what?
