Hi, Sorry but I've again a question about a person relating apartments to rent search. The reason I'm asking is, that I've had unfortunately already two scams during my search so I'm very careful yet.

I've sent a lot of emails to estate agents and one who came back to me is Angel Alarcón and she has sent me this email

Good morning,

In two or three weeks I will have homes to rent.

Now I have bank assets to sell. I want to meet with you to offer them to you in case you are interested.

When can you meet me?

Regards.

Angel Alarcón

Explained to her that I want to rent not to buy, now she will meet me. Seems OK and I've checked her email address it is [email protected] strange is that there is an estate agency, but the name is Aqui esta tu casa and they have a different email address. Am I too concerned????

Thanks

If in doubt, forget it. I would stay away from any company using a gmail or a hotmail. Normaly it would be something like [email protected] or similar. FIND SOMETHING ELSE!

I fully agree with kenneth1, it's not worth thinking about. Plenty of genuine places to visit. Personally I would never deal with online estate agents.

Don't go anywhere near it. I made the mistake of dealing with online agents, bunch of cowboys, and that was years ago.
