On my show on Sunday, I uncovered a "Big Fish" who in no uncertain terms said that he liked me because of my attitude and together we could make a lot of money! He came up with a fabulous idea of making a movie to tell all about the scam world... I of course followed this up with an email to make sure he was genuinely interested in making a box office smash hit to what he replied:

yes i am very ready if you could allow me to act on the movie and i will also be pay for writing the script of how 419 originate and how youth and old men get to it and how we operates of the 419 scams and how large is our networks all over the world. call me let us talk more, tell who you really are? and what makes you to be flighting the scammers. i wait for you call Stu I am serious on this project but fly straight ok, i hate guys who fly zig zag when i tell them the truth. so behave well let us make money.

Regards,
Kw3s1 for now.

Now, of course - when making a film, we require a large number of crew members, so I�m looking for people to sign up to this to play different roles... I will play the Director and introduce new characters throughout the bait which will be you guys... Let me know what your specialty is and we'll bring you into the bait as and when...

I'm thinking a little screen test will be the first thing he needs to record!

Although I'm still new to this I think this might be fun.
So, if you want a newcomer on board, I'm ready for some action.
Anyway, if it's still above my level I can also simply die away after a while. Wink

As for specialties. Well, as I'm pretty new to this I have no special baiting-tactics, but I think I am creative and have a lot of fantasy to work with.
Throw me a fish and I'll turn it into wine...

What I love doing is explain completely irrational things, and sometimes I'm really good at it. Give me a little time and I think I can explain everything, without knowing what I talking about. Wink

^^^^^Almost like poetry!!!

Count yourself in... New or not... creativity and imagination is all that is required to make a feature length movie - especially when we already have A-List Superstars to act for us! Laughing

I've always fancied being the sound director on one of these events. Telling my assistants where to stick their microphones, playing with the tweeters, compressing things and pulling down the faders.

Sign me up as the sound man.

Has this project got a Web site yet?

Posted: Tue Dec 11, 2007 9:25 am

Oooh great idea Thomas.... A web site!!!

We have a Director, a creative and imaginative poet, a sound manager, any IT web developers?????

^^^ That's actually what I earn my money with.
But I'm more creative with words and code than with designs. Wink

^^^^

Same here (I'm more creative with words). But how about one of the Freeweb templates? Or iWeb produces some fairly sexy-looking stuff? But I'm sure it's possible to get this thing to fly so that it looks realistic without spending an age on over-sexy design.

It should be a film that needs lots of stunt extras who have to prove their ability to take part by filming some stunts as their auditions.

I also think there should be some singing parts (auditions).

And we're going to need lots of people on the ground to buy the props, rent goats, etc. (whaddya mean, "why do we need goats?" Everyone needs a goat or three in their lives).

I have a spacebook domain that may be of use.

In RL I actually run a film-making business, so whatever advice or help you need with actually putting on/running something like a film shoot I can definitely help you with! Can I be producer??

Posted: Tue Dec 11, 2007 2:13 pm

If you're still hiring: I do special effects and CG (part-time). It's not a 419 film without plane crashes, zombie cocoa merchants, and exploding WU's!

Ok maybe we'll only get a burning rubbish barrel, but still!

I can help with the pyrotechnics, RL hobby that became a RL job

Posted: Tue Dec 11, 2007 2:23 pm

We need giant vampire lizards!

If necessary I can think about an explanation why. Wink

Maybe I should be the writer of this, but wait, I read too much Stephen King, that could seriously raise the gore-factor of the movie... On the other hand, this might lead to accidents involving lads...

Edit: I heard that chainsaw-juggling is a common hobby among lads. We should feature this; with running chainsaws of course...

Oooo.... Can I be the costume designer? I'm thinking of something rather new-wavish for the scammers.

I smell an opportunity for a safari. Making a movie requires filming in different locations! And even if it doesn't, it still does!

Posted: Tue Dec 11, 2007 3:32 pm

Yes I want in on this - I will volunteer my dropbox if we need items sent.
And if we get a mass items (promotion material!) then maybe make use of it for donations for the site!

But I can be a Scouting - Script approval (hard copy only!!)
I sent you a PM too...

Hi All

Fantastic response so far - please keep volunteering for your role in this slick box office smash hit that we will be creating...

In the mean time, I will keep him warm so that we can introduce the characters slowly and lure him into a false sense of security! This has so many opportunities guys....

That is great news - I thought you weren't serious at the time although I was hoping you were.

Since speaking with you on the phone on Sunday, I have been thinking. You are right, I am very talented and with my attitude, I can make anything happen! Why should I not make money from this? Like you said, you are a "big fish" in the scam world and if together we can combine our efforts and walk hand in hand together then I'm pretty certain we can make Lot's of money - maybe even millions if this movie is a hit... who knows?

About the real me... my name is R4ndy McM1ll4n, I work in the advertising and PR industry, mainly for major film productions. I spend a lot of time in the US and Europe and have a very good network of friends and colleagues that we could call upon when the time is right. Catching scammers was my way of passing the time in hotel rooms when I had nothing to do, or when I'm on that long flight, however, you have changed my way of thinking and I now believe that I should join you! I will make a lot of money and who knows we could be famous!

I am meeting with a friend of mine tonight who is a Director in the movie world, I plan to discuss with him our idea and see if he would be interested in leading it forward? Who knows... it's worth a shot - But don't worry, you can trust these people - they have worked in Hollywood. In the mean time, I need you to speak with several people that you trust to work on this project, after all - we will require actors to play different parts. I MUST stress that we only want to deal with intelligent individuals. I have spoken with a lot of people in your industry who are as thick as two short planks! We don't want those.

Please also open a new email address for yourself which we will use for movie correspondence.

Best Regards

R4ndy

Enjoy!

I want in! Maybe you'll need someone to go over their lines with them to make sure they deliver them properly and clearly in their audition tapes? I'll happily do that on voice chat..or maybe a love interest..hmmm what else... Well, if you've got any room for a NooB on board I'd love to join the fun! Give me a part and I'll work it. Wink

What about the 7 dragons Laughing

Posted: Tue Dec 11, 2007 11:27 pm

I am hereby applying for the director of IT position for that movie. After all the movie needs a website. And yes I CAN put up a site on a server, I have a few servers and sitting around I'd love to put to good use for that.

LOL. That could be fun.

Dont forget when we do NAME the movie to mask it here so google doesnt find it!

Or any names of the charaters in here should be masked so google will not find!

Posted: Wed Dec 12, 2007 1:23 am

^^ Good point. Do we have an IRC-channel we could use to discuss things like that?
Otherwise PM might do to discuss names.

Will you need a hair stylist? I can see many characters with shaven heads and other parts in this film...

Posted: Wed Dec 12, 2007 2:18 am

I can help with two roles if need me. I can be a gopher/production assistant and I have a completely unreliable shipping company to send him any tools/equipment (see sig line for PD).
