Hello,
Thank you again for your reply.
From the beginning I want to inform you that your payment will be in MoneyBookers custody until you will see the apartment and ONLY after your confirmation they will send the money to me or back to you depends on your decision.
I will explain to you step by step how this will work so we can not have any problems after i will start the transaction so please Read it carefully:
1 - To start this transaction I will need to know your full shipping information, full name, full shipping address to proceed with this deal;
2 - I will go to the MoneyBookers and leave the apartment keys and the rental contract in your name as the intended receiver;
3 - MB will check the envelope to see if everything is OK with it and also the legal papers that will come along with the keys.
4 - MB will send you the payment invoice notification to let you know they have the apartment keys and the papers in their custody;
5 - At this point you will have make the deposit 760 EUR ( first month and deposit ) on the MB payment agent name from the payment invoice.
6 - After you make the deposit you will have to send the info about the money deposit to MB.
7 - MB will verify the payment information and if everything is in order they will deliver the apartment keys and the contract and you will be able to receive it in 2 or 3 days.
8 - After you receive the package, you will go and check the apt and you must contact them and tell them if you KEEP the apartment or NOT. If all is in order you will confirm MB to release the money to me, if you don`t like the apartment they will send your money back to you, and you will send them the apartment keys with the rental contract.
I will pay MB Service + shipping and you will pay money transfer fees.
Thank you for your interest and wait news from you.

Dear Sir or Madam,
Thank you for contacting Moneybookers customer service.
We thank you for informing us about the e-mail you have received and we would like to confirm that it is a scam. We would like to point that we do not work with Western Union or agents, our transactions are instant and irreversible carried out online either via our web site or on the website of the respective seller; they do not contain any letters but only digits.
Furthermore, a transaction cannot be started on your behalf as only the account holder is allowed to make transactions from their personal Moneybookers account to other end customers or merchants of ours.
Finally, we do not own any warehouses, as we are only the payment provider for our merchants.
We kindly advise you to be very careful when buying things via internet. You can check out our escrow service and detailed information about its functions if you go to [faq]->[escrow] tab situated on the right part of our page. With our escrow service your money is protected and you can always cancel the send money transaction if the good is not delivered.
We also advise you to report the case to your local authorities.
We hope you find this information useful. Please feel free to contact us, if you have additional questions or concerns.
