"Susan Appleberg" used as Alias for Rental Scam

It never fails to amaze me all the false identities these scammers use. Keep sending in your expenses or adding comments to these posts as they do work in preventing others from being scammed if they google the names/email addresses/text numbers.

Subject: PAYMENT INFORMATION...
Hello Teresa, 

How are you doing? Thanks for the reply and information. I am very interested in renting the room, I will keep you posted with my flight information as events unfold. I actually don't have a job waiting but will secure one upon arrival as I have 5yrs visa plus work permit. I just got in touch with my uncle and we thought of mailing the payment via air mail mid next week. I have your mailing address and will like to proceed with payment arrangement.  Also, let me know if you will be able to help me keep my little stuffs and my car as they will be shipped before my arrival. Can you please remove the advert off Internet so that I can be sure you will be holding the room down for me? Thanks for willing to give me the room, I can't wait to meet you.
Susan.

Hi Teresa,
Thanks for the cordial response. I'm interested in the available rental, presently I reside in Doncaster,UK and would be relocating to the US soon. I know I'll need to secure the rental prior to my arrival to show seriousness on my part. I would have called to discuss the rental but my phone service provider won't allow me make long distance calls. Hope we can get along together though I know it's kinda hard expressing oneself via email, but I'll put my pride in the gutters and try to be as explicit as possible. I have plans moving in by 10th of May(2012) but won't mind if rent start counting sooner.

About me ...I am half Brit from dad and half Asian from mum, am 29yrs old, a science teacher and divorced female, mostly spend my time in the laboratory experimenting, I am educated(undergraduate and post graduate degree), a good christian,very low key and relaxed to live with. I DON'T smoke nor drink but don't mind if flat mates do. Presently staying at 4 Bennetthorpe, Doncaster, DN2 6AD, United Kingdom.

I prefer cleanliness than any other traits, I'm honest, responsible, and hardworking while I dislike lazy, messy and uncaring people. I love pets so much though I don't have one, am a quiet and easy going person to live with. I always love to go on a date but seldom party. I swim for fun and sometimes play tennis, also I enjoy snowboarding. I must confess that I am comfortable with the price. I'll like to secure the place down pending my arrival.. I will also be shipping my things down to the States such as my Toyota Matrix (XL 2010)which I've been using for over 6 months now, and some personal effects. Don't worry am not bringing in furniture's as I will easily purchase upon arrive if needed. Moreover, let me know how I can go about securing the place down before my arrival as I'll be busy this month preparing to come over as soon as the room is available and payment is made.

To assure you that I am as good of a lady as email will allow one to portray, I would offer my willingness to assist you with any information you may need as regards to me. I am actually a coffee drinker addict:), I hope you enjoy also. My uncle has agreed to make total payment for the rent fee including shipping of my Car with personal effects, he will be mailing out payment to you in United States Money Order on his business trip abroad(US) to hold the room for me before my arrival. This will show seriousness on my part for the room so you won't rent it to someone else.

Should you agree to receive payment via Money Order in US dollars, kindly advise me of your full name ,contact address (either work or home address depends on where you assure to receive it in person )and contact telephone #

Right now I have thought of it and understood that moving to the US will not only help boost my career but also improve my personal life. I hope you will finally consider renting to me, know well that your rules and terms would be strictly adhered to. I have been introduced to different landlords and room owners but they don't seem easy to get along with, I hope we can get along well as I wait to read from you soon via email.

Sorry for the email novel. I hope it isn't a lot to read and I apologize for coming on strong, am just looking for a reliable place when I move down. I look forward to hearing positive from you again. Stay blessed.

Thanks and take care,

Susan.

Yes, it is still available. It is my house and my daughter is moving in May 15 and needs roommates to share the rent. What brings you to the U.S. and when are you arriving? My daughter will have to meet you before agreeing with the rental. However, if this is not possible before you come, maybe you can skype her. My sister-in-law lives in England but she is in the lower part. References will be required. We look forward to hearing from you.

Thank you original poster! This was a well written scam. I accidentaly found this when I googled her car (I was curious what it looked like).

Funny thing is the email responses are timed perfectly for UK time.

Got the beginnings of this scam today. Fortunately I googled it. Can someone please tell me what exactly the scammer is looking to get out of it? I'm a little confused.

This is the email I recieved:

I had her or him we really do not know as a scammers from the start I am waiting for the Phony check to com in now. I play with them for a while I know the drill by heart I am to take the rent money & deposit and send the rest to the mover! Other times it is their "Traveling agent" A few times I have told them I have sent the money to their agent boy do they get mad when they figure out I am having fun at their expense. Btw I did a trace of the email and it is Originating-IP: [41.220.69.17] Nigeria

Andrea Ursula said...

Thanks Tom! I have the same scammers (Sandra from Dorchester) playing the exactly worded game with me right now. I'm thinking that I should start a 'reverse scam' and just take the money too! Hmmmmm;-)

No seriously. If everyone was smart enough to catch on and just take their initial 'play' money maybe they'd eventually give up. Unfortunately there will always be kind, ignorant people who fall for these schemes.

Melissa Fusco said...

Thanks everybody. I nearly fell for this. The fake payment now apparently consists of a CVS money order--for way more ($200 more) than the monthly rent.

I also called the number in the UK--it works, but a guy answers, and says that "Sandra" is out. Don't be reassured!

Same thing, same lady even, you would think they would switch emails, thanks for the tip! I find it interesting it originates in Nigeria, perhaps a desperate attempt to get out of poverty? Or a wealthy Nigerian playing us as fools? hmmm

Sorry for the email novel. I hope it isn't a lot to read and I apologize for coming on strong, am just looking for a reliable place when I move down. I look forward to hearing positive from you again. Stay blessed.

Thanks and take care,

"She" also has this new email address as of August 2012:

sussiie19@gmail.com

I signed it up for a ton of Disney newsletters. It's *impossible* to fully unsubscribe from those things. Might also put "her" on some more newsletter subscriptions.

P.S. Is there a way to report this person to any government entity? I think someone looked up the IP address...?

Hi, I posted an add on craiglist, offering a room in USA, Susan Appleberg (susiea199@gmail.com)replied below :

Is the place still available? I would like to secure the rental as I am presently in Doncaster, UK and will be moving soon.

thanks,
Susan.

I replied on her email, but just for a little check, I googled her email id. Thanks for this blog, now I know.

Susan Appleberg has changed her tune slightly, as you will read below, she is now profoundly hard of hearing so there's no use trying to talk to her, and she has discovered that she is part Mexican!
