House Hunting

We have been looking for our own place somewhere closer to London on a tube line so we can get out and do things and apply for work. The place in Acton which looked too good to be true WAS…it was a scam wanting me to transfer money to Chris via Western Union then send the owner a copy of the receipt as proof of us being able to afford rent. Turns out they wanted a copy of the receipt so they could intercept the transfer and pocket the money. A good lesson to be learnt whilst house hunting. Our next plan is to call letting agents and get them to do the ground work for us, set up viewings etc.
