Sounds like a scam. They'll probably ask for your bank account information so they can "wire" their deposit and first month's rent to you. Then they'll hit your account for some cash. Just my guess.

If English is not your strong suit, why would you start your scam letter with, "I'm originally from England/Ireland/Scotland/Australia/Chicago."???
