This to me seems like the big hit on Gumtree at the moment!
They are advertising many many flats with such nice descriptions, no pictures and are all going at £130/week. Doesnt seem much when it's broken down but when you look at it:
£130 / week (Also using the elusive '£132' '£135' etc to try to keep people guessing!)
£520 / month
They will then want (i can guarantee) a months rent as deposit which will be another £520 totalling:
£1,040 which they will then ask to be transfered through Western Union or MoneyGram and come up with some story as to why you can't view the flat before purchase!
Just another hot tip while i'm having a browse on rentals now!
Added: I'm actually just going to give up for tonight, each and every page and ad i click on are all coming up with (80% of the time) http://roomsstore.info/ with the same old description just changed a bit and a few added 'requirements' to make it seem genuine along with no pictures, different contact method or anything - i have reported a few but, i think i should consider making an email directly to GumTree even though they should already be aware of such an outbreak!
