there are times when statements can be immediately dismissed as scams - the OP's situation being an obvious example, and there are other times when statements should be considered for whether they are true but are simply a case of someone knows more than I do and scepticism should be given the benefit of the doubt until you've read up on it - so, welcome to the non resident landlord scheme :

What happens if a tenant of an overseas fails to do this? Can they be held responsible by HMRC? What sanction could HMRC impose?0 -

Cheaper rent?
"It's a 2 bed flat, but I want to keep my stuff here - so I'm renting it as a 1 bed and you'll be looking after that stuff for me, which will all be in the 2nd bedroom, so I've reduced the rent so I can pick somebody lovely and honest - such as yourself...."0 -

Copper bottomed guaranteed 100% scam. Tell sister to avoid unless she has too much money.
p.s. even if she's seen and visited the flat, its STILL a scam. Person rents flat , acts the part of the "friend" showing her round, plays this scam out dozens of times before vanishing.0 -
