Many thanks for getting back to me again. I am very social person that
respect humanity and this make it so easy for me to get along with
whoever that comes my way in life. I am arriving on 14th of October
from United State and stay more than a year in Australia working. I
will be transferring the rent to you through paypal and if you do not
have one, kindly set up an account with them in less than 5 minutes on
www.paypal.com.au... I will be so happy to secure the room as soon as
you get back to me with the paypal money request.Alternatively, i can
as well transfer funds from my paypal account to your online bank
account, Do get back to me with your name on the accounht, bsb and
your account number. I had attached pics of myself for you to know me.
I will like to pay in advance through PayPal and my reason is that, i
will be presenting the proof of my rent payment to my employer and
also to the immigration at the port of entry to Australia.
