A few of the key points:
(a) Americans who are studying a masters program, generally speak the language fluently. Especially one studying in France taking Microbiology.
(b) an "American" studying abroad and cannot talk on the telephone. (trademark)
(c) a single (presumably hot) female. (trademark)
(d) really interested in renting from me, but have no details about the room.
(e) Cats are mentioned, but you "like dogs".
(f) already asked for "all details about the room" in the previous email, was answered and responded back with this same question rephrased.
(g) And the final touch... your "dad" will be taking care of the financial arraingments. So I presume that the fake bank draft, counterfit check or other "instrument" will be larger than the deposit, and you will wish a refund. The draft or check will bounce, and I will be out the money.
Best of luck though.
It must still work with some, or you folk wouldn't do it...
Next contestant...

Rent $600 / month (includs utilities upto a reasonable amount).
from previous advert:
Great 12x10 bedroom with adjoining stall shower bath in huge 1960 square foot townhouse. The security complex is small and very quiet. There is a pool and spa that is rarely used by the tenants who are mostly owner occupied. Utilities include high speed internet, (basic)cable TV, gas, electric, water and refuse. Use of washer, dryer and kitchen. Cats are already in residence. If you don't like cats... you'll not enjoy the atmosphere. Non smokers please.
