When you are done with a lad to you report him so that his email is killed. I am about tired with one and he is ticking me off and don't want to play. I think he has been worked before. I can't get a pic or even a phone call from him. He says to send the reciept of the money before he goes and checks it, and other than that leave him alone.

Don't you dare to do that, that's how I lost lots of lads, never assume that he puts his money on one horse alone, you could kill a ten month friendship, abort a safari and he gets a new one in 25 seconds flat and has his info stored on a memory stick or a dump email.

Edit: sorry but that's not very social and it has no use if you do it, just a minor bump in the road for him, but sometimes a huge bump in a bait.

Hi gotta fish. Very Happy

We don't recommend having lads email acounts closed at all. There are various reasons for this. They can very easily open more accounts so it really doesn't hurt them. We'd prefer they keep using the same accounts because over time it gets posted on anti scam sites, making it searchable for victims, and on the slight chance that law enforcement did ever investigate, there would be more evidence in an older box.

Never give up. When you're at a dead end, *poof* you just discovered a way to hack a "neighbor's" email and you have access to WU numbers she is sending to a man in the next town over. The town is only 200 miles away!

Many times, if you tell the lad "OK, bye" and just leave it at that, he'll come back for more anyways. Wink

The only valid reason not to kill run of the mill free mail lad accounts is that it is a waste of time.

Definitely don't kill the lads' addresses. You have a perfect opportunity to get the lad off script. Has he filled out his homeland security paperwork? Western Union won't let you send any money without it. Wink

Hi gotta fish.

Just to add to what has already been said, the only things we kill here are fake phone lad addys and also fake bank websites.

If you want to kill things, either buy a shotgun Shocked

or else get yourself to these forums...

We kill these for reasons explained on the forums and also in the Eater University thread.

Just over a fortnight ago two versions of this mail lobbed into each of two baiter accounts - I was baiting the same Lad with both of them:

Quote:

Hello
You are dealing with a scammer.
I have terminated his email account here.
[snip]
This is a standard scam where they get gullible people to send hundreds of dollars for bank fees, air travel, customs, you name it and they have a fee for it
Of course, they have nothing for you in return.
With these people, money only travels in one direction - from you to them
Stop now before you are defrauded.
Never respond to spam messages - even if it is something you want.
People lose tens of thousands of dollars in scams like this.
Don't you be one of them.

Both Lads were back with new addys within the day.

Incidentally - I addressed the warners thus:

Quote:

Hello there - just a note to say that I appreciate your concern, but I'm not going to send this scammer anything. I'm a scambaiter - see 419Eater and Scamorama (I'm in there somewhere).
You sent the same message to - that's me as well. Thanx for your time.
Regards,
and others
