I am a slow learner with baiting but I finally have a long time bait going that is becoming very fun. (almost 2 months now my personal record)

This is the typical contract proposal for 15 mil. He brought up the idea of transfering these funds from his offshore account and I agreed that it would be best that way as i also have an offshore account used for hiding funds. He then pawned me off to another man, this time in spain. I originally thought this other man was him but after several emails to the one in spain i am sure that it is not... Now I am double crossing the 1st guy ... he is becoming very irritated with me and I have told him that I will be meeting with the man in spain next week and after some consideration i have come to the conclusion that it can be much more lucrative for me to cut him out of his share and invited him to come and find me in the US if he thought he could... Business is business and it's a dog eat dog world... Twisted Evil

My favourite bait would be the Jo3l bait, where I got him to make a bust of my character. He didn't ship it but it gave me an idea on how to do art baits and now I got a few hopefuls Smile

I dunno, they're all fun, i think i like the "please send money to my orphanage ones" and the romance ones the best, for some reason, gettin their hopes up and then crushing them makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside lol Twisted Evil

I like church baits, maybe because I've had some quite good trophies (like getting a bunch of lads to make a big cross and paint thier heads red). Church lads seem to be more gullible.

^^^I think you'll find that the OP is asking what is your favourite (individual) bait rather than what particulat type of bait as per your link.

My favourite one was a check lad where I got my hands on a nice forged check for $500,000. Sadly, it didn't make me rich. Crying or Very sad

Of course mine is Ed -

But I do enjoy Dr. Usman with my kid.

My favorite is/was Dr. J0s3ph W4lt3r from Benin, a heritage quest. He was one of my first baits and stayed on for 11 months when I got bored with him, I have been to England with him (Thanks VPManchester) Been to Amsterdam with him(Thanks Persephone) and I died there.
He still writes my widow with nice business proposals, so maybe in a few months we'll do business again Twisted Evil

No real trophies, but I sure must have cost him a lot of money and wasted his time. My first sig line is his Smile

Kevin Will Tony. Look in my siggy. He has 11 safaris. 6 tattoos. And over 100 trophies from this fool.

My favorite bait of all time is one from Scam Patroller. This is the bait where he nearly got a guy killed in Eastern Chad, near the Sudan border. I was so inspired by this bait, I eventually had two baits of my own that sent lads to the same place.

SP's bait can be found here... http://www.freewebs.com/419eaterrestaurant/safari.html

My favourite of someone else's was Bombardiers "Colt Seavers Vs the unknown stuntman" bait. Some of Wayne's webcam girls and panty baits have also been very enjoyable. More recently, Peanut's bait that involved those two chuckle brothers was entertaining too.

My own favourite that I did was Ikenna, my first straight bait. There was nothing whacky in it, but I had him on the go for several months which drove him crazy. He taught me a lot about scammers too.

Wait, are we talking about our own favvourite baits or those of others?

The two that have made me laugh the hardest are Bomb's Stuntman and YW's Chad bait. You don't get much better than those.

Posted: Thu Mar 20, 2008 1:54 pm

Bomb's Stuntman is a classic. Also enjoy SP's YMCA bait, and the fact he got a letter from one of the real members of the current Village people condoning the bait Laughing

Of my own, I am really enjoying my Feegle bait at the moment, it is fun acting scottish, and yes my accent was bad but it was passable.

Edit: @chibuike - that was the inspiration for my feegle bait - I tried to move Eze over to the feegles but he never bit

Posted: Thu Mar 20, 2008 2:15 pm

Bork, bork, bork, the Swedish Chef is my favorite. I was so sad to see it end.

Posted: Thu Mar 20, 2008 2:40 pm

Lou1s Mar1on - (see my siggy) I've baited him with so many people and he never wised up.

Posted: Thu Mar 20, 2008 3:22 pm

Of my own, it has to be the NSFW toiletries, sex toys and signed underwear bait that started the whole underwear modality. The whole thing was surreal.
By someone else, I'm still in awe of anyone that gets a lad to safari, plus Shiver's "road to nowhere" bait, the one that made me decide to join this site in the first place.

Posted: Thu Mar 20, 2008 3:24 pm

Its the safari baits that I love the best, and although there have been some fantastic safari baits, I particularly remember reading YW's "Road to the Skeleton Coast" in awe.

That one really inspired me and made me want to try baiting for a safari myself.

Without a doubt my favourite all time bait Is SP's YMCA bait, pure genius Laughing

Posted: Thu Mar 20, 2008 10:55 pm

^^Yes, same to me. I have been following it (as a reader) from my Eater beginning until now.

The Arse Clown Football Club baits are damn funny, too (laddie always dumping his passport at the embassy).

And Shiver�s Mark of my Respect.

Also enjoyed the hitman massbait with Murry Guru as guyman coordinating the baiters� swarm.

Ah, yes, and 4hm3d K4d | r | ! I simply love this guy. He ought to be in the movies, both as a tragic, funny, criminal and yet innocent acting and incredibly industrious figure. Even a massbait and him finding Eater could not deter him. Proud to have spoiled his 40th birthday with a Kumasi airport safari.

Without him I certainly would not be here. Not that it matters..

Posted: Thu Mar 20, 2008 11:14 pm

I have to say the baits in Shivers book, it came out around the same time that I joined.

SP's "YMCA" will always make me laugh when thought of.

All of you are great and funny! Very Happy

Mine is my very first one that lasted for 6months and I have yet to share.
I'll have to put it together some day.

All my baits are short and sweet, but I have a lot of them. When they get boring, I drop them and I have not slapped in a long while. Wink

Posted: Fri Mar 21, 2008 12:06 am

I'd hate to choose from other people's baits, as they can be hilarious in so many ways. YW's safaris, the Colt Seavers videos, Shiver's one with the John Kimble soundboard - so many it's impossible to single one out.

My personal favourite bait? Well, Going by my baiter personae, at this stage, it's (a) an unpublished one in which baited Prince T0ny W1ll1ams for 11 months and scored most of my trophies to date and (b) two separate (but linked) baits involving the same character played by two different Lads trying the same scam on but with different results.

Kevin Will Tony: funny name, stupid guy. If he put all his energy into doing something positive, i can imagine him running his tv show...lol

I've just been reading the Arse Clown football baits, and they're wonderful. I've not come across them before, thanks for introducing me to them! Very Happy

My favourite that I've done would definitely be Nicolas Kabre. Three phallus tattoos and he still hasn't wised up, my favourite of all time would be one of SPs. I just couldn't narrow it down any further that that.

Of my own baits, the YMCA bait has been a blast, never had so many videso, cd's and banners from one lad Very Happy

From others, there are just so many, I couldn't even attempt to choose a favourite, YW's safaris, 3D being sent on his travels, all the twat stuff, Bombardiers stunt lad, Shivers classics including the Dead Parrot sketch, the tattoos, each and every bait where something has happened to waste the lads time, money and resources, is a winner in my book, and that includes straight bates where there were no funny photos, videos and stuff like that, a bit Thumbs up

to all members, keep making them suffer!
