Can I give you £16,000?

According to a story in the Metro this morning, this is a question that some students are being asked by organised crime gangs. Apparently the criminals are targetting students, especially foreign nationals, and asking them to pay fraudulent cheques for large sums of money into their accounts. The student is promised that they will receive some of the cash for their involvement and are being told that they won't get caught even though it is a criminal act.

However, it appears that when things go wrong, the criminals will then expect the student to pay them their larger share of the money even if the cheque doesn't clear.

We would strongly advise all of our tenants to be aware of this scam and contact Lothian and Borders Police if they are approached by these gangs.

Happy Easter!

I carried out a viewing in the south of the city earlier today and the prospective tenant could have been forgiven for thinking he'd been tele-transported to the Swiss Alps! The view from the livingroom was stunnng as the sun was glistening on the snow covered Pentland Hills in the distance.

Despite the recent bad weather, Spring is here and the team at Cullen would like to wish all of our tenants a very Happy Easter. Many of you will be sitting exams and working hard to meet course work deadlines in the next few weeks so we also wish you good luck in your studies too.

If you're in need of letting your hair down or some light relief from the stress in the next few weeks then keep your eye on our blogs as we'll be letting you know about some great offers as we come into the summertime.
