diamnd15 | Sounds to good to be true with roomate? |
so i just bought my first home and put up that i was looking for a roommate on a few websites. so after i get a few people asking about, the person who seemed most interested was a model from london. we have been talking by email for about the past week and it just seems to good to be true. she says she going to start working near my home and her boss is going to send me a check for the deposit and I'm supposed to mail the rest back for the ticket to the states, anyone think this is also to good to be true. |

It's a (Nigerian) advance fee scam.
The only real money is yours.
They are hoping that the fake check looks good enough to fool your bank for a few weeks. (Because you are a good customer, your bank will credit you the money in advance.) After you wire the money back via Western Union as quickly as possible, the check will bounce and the bank will want all their money back.
The move into targeting landlords is fairly recent, but the MO is the same. Tell you anything. Get you to deposit the fake check. Pressure you to wire money back. Disappear. |

Do NOT fall for this! Here's what the scam is: They will send you a STOLEN check. You cash it, send them a legitimate check, the check YOU cashed BOUNCES, you're out that amount PLUS the amount you sent to the con artists. |

Sounds like a scam. Likely she'll send you a bogus check. It'll bounce, and you'll be out the full amount. Never trust anyone who you meet on the internet and somehow wants you to send them back money. I say don't do it! |

Yes. Why would someone send you more money than you required, then ask you to send the remainder back for a ticket? |

Well, first of all...I wouldn't trust anyone that was out of town. I mean...from another city would be fine, but from another country? It's hard to trust someone who's not living in the same country. Why don't you wait for the deposit first? |

v.b. has the correct answer.
Forward the information to the FBI, BTW...ASAP. IMO. |

I would be very, very cautious over this. It is screaming scam to me. You are being asked to "launder" money, and will be ripped off.
Most models that are real professional models are placed in classy apartments and hotels that their agencies set up for them.
They do not live on their own, this sounds like someone who is looking to set up drug deals or maybe a red light in her room I guess is the best way I can put this.
You should look for roommates through a reliable rental agency, or maybe the real estate agent that you dealt with while purchasing your home. Do not post your info and number in public places, you are asking for a world of trouble.
Please be careful and congratulations on your new home.
Have a Happy New Year. |

Ok she said she's going to be working in your area but wants you to send her money for a ticket, how much of a deposit are you asking for because a ticket from London to the US can range anywhere from $500 - $1000. If she was working in your area her ticket would be paid for, if she's in London and she's coming to the US does she have a working visa and how long can she possibly stay if she's not a resident of the US?
It's too good to be true, find someone that actually lives in your area that can come by and look at your place and can meet you face to face and who isn't asking you to send them the money from the deposit. |
