These pics are from a current bait that I am running. This idiot is claiming to be absolutely broke to a point that he claims that if he responds to my email, the internet time costs involved prevent him from eating for the rest of the day.

I believe that both pics are of the same person, but in the "tattoo" pic (obvious forgery) he appears to have travelled from Lagos to Paris, France over the weekend (even that appears to be a photo-chop, but I'll act as if that part fooled me so I can slap him for lying to me about being broke).

I'm looking for as many ways as possible to slap this lad around the block a few times, so if anyone could identify the person in this pic, or if anyone could has other pics or could point me to more pics of this idiot, it might make for some more fun.

And The "Tattooed" Pic

Is he a wax figure in the second one?

I noticed that he has a tattoo on his left arm. Are any of you baiters responsable for that? Perhaps we need to see a better shot of that one.

Yea,

That's a result of my bait. He's joining my

H0ly_Church_0f_Sa1nt_Helda_B0aner

(don't want him googling until this one is done), so that he can collect his inheritance from his now "deceased" Pastor.

I think that his "proof" is fake. He will be slapped for it, rest assured.

He claims that he has the other pics, but he is so poor that he can only afford to scan and send one photo this time. I want the definite proof (as per that now legendary modality of Shiver - my hat's off to him).

But I would still love to be able to call him on the photos not being of himself.

Nice golden showers in the backdrop of Paris.

that second photo looks like a death portrait. He looks real weird for a black man. Even a black person that has a cube next to me says the same.

I think he frequents the same plastic surgeon as Michael Jackson.

second image is photo chopped. Look at his left arm at the bicep. I ain't that chiseled...

His face looks "wrong" too. Can't put my finger on it, but I'd hazard a guess that it's photochopped too.

Make '.em get a bigger pic of that tattoo.

More likely that the Paris background is some kind of print or poster with him in front, maybe he was even photoshopped into the pic. The Eiffer tower picture is not recent. There is some kind of huge searchlight in the top of the tower nowadays which you would expect to see, check this webcam:

Please note the unusual edges at the top of his pic. Slap time.

EDIT: (And BTW: Last weekend the temperature in Paris probably didn't rise over 5 degrees C, probably freezing at night. And he's standing in Paris outdoors with THAT T-shirt??? Shocked

Slap him even harder!)

Where's that ring gone on his left hand in the bottom pic eh? Slap, slap, slap hehe

I'm still keeping it professional with this guy. I told him that the committee requires pics of the tattoo being applied, pics immediately after it is finished and pics when it has healed. He only sent me a poor version of the latter. The induction committee is very strict about the photo requirement and gives no second chances.

I offered to submit his photo, but advised that it is likely not to pass because the tattoo is not clear, and the other required photos are missing. My final advice to him was to get a complete set of photos to me that would increase his chances of being inducted into the church and therefore collecting his 200K inheritance.

I'm letting the fake Paris thing slide so I can slap him for having enough money to travel from Lagos to Paris, but not enough to scan and email the complete photo set!

the first photo does not look like a prro man at all. he seems to be wearning some expensive cloths. tell him to sell his wardrobe

The tattoo says "xxxxx" (Best I can make out after some PhotoShop messing.

The head on the second pic is the head from the first pic but flipped. Then they did some smoothing to match the "feel" of the second pic.

"Tattoo"!

More like Magic Marker.

Yes, the tattoo says "Baited By Saint Helda Boaner", who is the patron saint of my church.

I'm thinking that he wrote the specified tattoo content on his arm in marker, took a picture and then photoshopped it (poorly) into the main photo.

Presently, my lawyer character is telling him that he is on the lad's side and really wants to see him inducted into the church, but he has to be honest in saying that his present photograph will not cut it, mainly because it isn't part of a set showing the tattoo being applied, after it is done and when it is healed.

This guy's really squirming now, as once the dust settled from the reading of his beloved pastor's will, he now stands to inherit US$205,000 and some electronics, but the church is very strict about its requirements. He's too poor to get the other photographs to me. I'm saving the "sell your jewellry" slap until later.

For now, I have left it at "if you cannot comply, then I'm afraid that there is nothing I can do to help you."

I hope he comes through for me.

Sorry to necro this thread, but it seems that the odd lad or two actually has the brain cells to google my church name. Could the reference from ozroo be modified or deleted, as it comes up in a google search and has messed up a couple of my baits.

Thanks.

@ Jreh, rather than necro a 2.5 year old topic to ask for something to be removed, use the Report this post to a moderator button for the particular post in question, when you have read this, send me a PM to let me know, then I'll delete your post and my reply so that this sinks back to where it was.

[edit]

I have edited out the church name in Ozroos post.
