Property Owners - Property For Sale Scam - 1
Here is an example of a typical email that you might receive when selling your property.

Hello Seller,
My name is Rev.Ori Dakari i saw you house so am interested in buying your (house) so i will like you to email me with the last price and the condition and the pics so that we can proceed from there with the payment arrangement because am planning to move to the house very soon and mind you my mode of payment is by Cheque ok?Awaiting your response asap.

The Scam
1. The intention of this scam is to obtain as much personal information and bank details from you as is possible.
2. The person will make movements to buy your property and will intimate paying you a deposit by cheque.
3. They will speak with you by email maybe several times, each time trying to get as much information from you as possible.
4. When the time comes for them to pay you by cheque, they will make up excuses and try to get you to agree to transfer the deposit by bank transfer.
5. Once they have your bank details, they will try to access your bank account and remove funds.

A friend of mine is guitar teacher and got this. He answered and had a long conversation and finally they wanted to give him money in advance. He rejected and read later on the web that the "son" or "daughter" would cancel the trip and the family would want a part of the money back. This is a very good way to make dirty money clean.

Kiku you should have known it was a fraud when they did not say they particularly wanted their daughter to study jinashi shakuhachi with the commissioner of "Woman with Jinashi".
