Hi All

I have been living in Belgium for almost 3 years. My contract is coming to an end and I will be moving to Sweden on the next contract. So i was looking for a room or an studio for 2 months before I move. I was contacted by a user from this Blog. PLEASE BE CAREFUL as this is a scam. The oldest scam in the book. Shows you great photos and then to reserve it you have to pay a deposit via Western Union. Who uses stupid cons like this...........such an old one as well. I have seen them all as I am an IT Security Analyst. Anyway below is the name of the user. Please be careful.

User from this blog?? I think you better give details to our Admins. Then they will take care of him.
Cheaters are everywhere in the world. That is not the fault of any blog.

Hello,

do you have any information about this scammer ? There is no "ROOM987" on Expat.com. No one from the team remembers deleting his account (but maybe we did a while ago)

Thanks;

Julien
