While looking for an apartment last year, I came across two seperate scams of the same caliber. One was a townhouse for rent in the Northwestern subburbs - but the owner and her family moved to London. Send money, I'll send you the keys. The other was for a lovely apartment across from the Guthrie. It even had the unit number! Same scam, different person - this time it wasn't a London address, but a South Africa address. Basically, don't buy/rent anything without seeing the INSIDE first! This isn’t confined to Nigeria. While looking for an apartment last year, I came across two seperate scams of the same caliber.
