Unfortunately, the Nigerian money scam is well-known all over the world. Good luck. I hope you can find an honest career one day soon.
From Him:
WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
From Me:
Sorry, it's a well-known scam. You can apply for the apartment just like everyone else. My apartment: my terms. I would recommend not participating in this fraud. Prison sucks. Until I receive your properly filled out application (with application fee), I will not hold the apartment for you. I require credit and background checks of my tenants.
From Him:
OK SEND ME THE APPLICATION FORM SO THAT I CAN HAVE IT FILLED FOR YOU
TO HOLD THE APARTMENT FOR ME.
From Me:
I have sent the link. It is available for download at my website. Send it to the address provided with your $20 application fee. Thank you for applying.
