Hi All

Sent out 20 or so emails yesterday, had loads of replies and I'm really enjoying asking them lots of one liner questions per email and reading those long replies.

The Fedex lad is my favourite so far, I can tell he's bursting at the seams to get my �285 but unless I get that invoice from him my accounts dept can't pay it Laughing

although the money is only a mouse click away, I've assured him that.

It's great watching the football and wasting their time too..

Welcome to eater. Just be sure to bait safe. Also, I'm sure you could ask this fed ex lad a number of questions (one per e-mail) regarding this delivery Twisted Evil

I absolutely love the FedExx lads! If I may share a little method with you that usually drives them right over the falls...

First, insist on an invoice. After all, you've dealt with FedExx before (who hasn't) and an invoice was provided every time. After they moan and whine, they'll provide one for you, though you may have to invoke the no-invoice-no-payment condition first. Then assure them that you'll pay them that very day, so get ready to release the shiny metal mystery-box. THEN wait for them to remind you, and tell them that you paid it that day so they need to check again. When they come back again, assure them that you paid by credit card at your local FedExx office. You even have a receipt (number available on request). Make them 'splain in detail why a FedExx office cannot accept a payment made to Fedexx. After all, Eugenia at FedExx assured you that your payment would be processed without delay. They are likely to provide some choice siggy material, but it leaves the bait open.

If you play it right, you can add a week to your bait just with that. Don't worry nothing aboot their deadlines - those are entirely negotiable. Lads don't mind waiting a day or two. Very Happy

Would that be Dr Ugo?

I don't recognize titles, I'm afraid that he never went to school anyway Smile

My standard answer would get too complicated if I had to add titles, it's their time and money, not mine Twisted Evil

Very good! that's costing him. Unfortunately I live in Frank (Frank slide, South West Alberta) and we had another land slide so the phone doesn't work 24/7, I paid up and I'm trying now to send him the numbers(in big empty jpg files) he already has a few gig on his computer trying to open scan after scan.

Did the lad first ask for 285 GBP and later for 285 dollars?

Hello I'm New here! Joined: 12 Mar 2008 Posts: 18

He did, he only asked once for $285 I think, probably a typo from him.

Wanna piss him off some more...tell him you made a mistake, and thought he meant $28.50. Tell him you only have $30.00 in your checking account...then later, tell him you needed to put new tires on your bike, and only have 2.80 left. Does he want that? You might get your allowance next week if you mow the lawn on Saturday... Very Happy

Is this a confession?

A lot of lads seem to have a problem with the construction "can not". They always seem to miss out the "not". My guess is that it may have something to do with their native language syntax.

But it is striking how often the resulting sentence is a confession of scamming, and the lads do have a sense of humour.
