So I've been baiting this lad for about 3 months.

First his brother was dying of malaria and needed doctor's care urgently. That was going to cost $500, I told him I could probably come up with $200. But I was only going to send it after he sent me a picture with him holding a sign with my name on it which took about 6 weeks to get ... http://forum.419eater.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=153500&highlight=suit...for those who read it, it's the guy in the bad snake skin suit...lol

In this conversation he was so worried about where his package is, he forgot his brother was sick.

And he had so much on his mind, he totally forgot about his "aunties orphanage" which he had even made a flier for. He was going to have me go around to churches to collect donations. I told him we could make thousands doing that. He wanted me to open a checking account for him in my name so he could send me checks & checks I collected through donation could go through that account. I refused on the ground that it would increase my taxable income since I wasn't a registered charity.
He admitted in this discussion that his auntie only had 2 children and they were hers.

The reason he's so worried about the package is I sent it to his WU address (for some reason he couldn't figure out WU S3cur3) and for some reason he can not collect packages at that address. By the time he realized this, the package was on the way.

He's sent me about 15 e-mails along the way asking what service I used (P@rc3l D1ir3ct) which he took to mean Fed Ex, so when the tracking number was 20 digits, and FedEx is only 12 that caused no end of confusion.

The package is due to be delivered tomorrow (Tuesday) and he's frantic to find out the airline it was sent on so he can pick it up at the airport:

EDIT: Removed non-important stuff

lad: the parcel u sent to em how did u send it dear
me: parcel direct
lad: was it through plane or what
me: it's ground until it needs to fly across the ocean...

lad: yes what airline did u use to send it to me dear
me: I don't know which one it is...I suppose they send packages with every plane...they don't have their own fleet
lad: honey i really want to know the name of the airline dear that is the only way i can get it dear

me: why is it the only way to get it....

lad: where is that
me: it's a few miles up the road, but there is ice on everything today so I can't drive

lad: so what do u mean now honey
me: there was a winter mix storm - ice is on everything...
me: have to stay in & hope the electricity doesn't go off

me: well there's south west, american airlines, british air, northwestern, virgin, delta, and a bunch more...

Ivana that is so funny.

You have way more patience than my characters do,lol..

Where is he located? Lagos?

You will just have to inform him it is at the Abuja airport and he needs to go and collect it from there.
That was the only place they could hold it for him since it cant go to his place.

Is this package worth him traveling for? Twisted Evil

Ivana -

Well done and major kudos to you..I don't know how you managed to get so far with this guy. He contacted me from 4ppl and is a complete idiot.

His yahoo address is [email protected], his email name says J4mes M1chael. These are emails.

I'm still not sure what to call you. K3lvin? J4mes? M1chael?

So his obtuseness about the planes seems par for the course....of course, anyone who would wear that snake suit obviously was hiding behind the door when they passed out the brains. Hope you can get this guy on a safari to recover his package!

Posted: Mon Jan 05, 2009 11:17 pm

Nicely done. Another idea is perhaps you can receive a message from P4rc3l D1r3ct about the package being held by customs. It was confiscated because of it contained a potentially illegal item (drugs and guns tend to really freak lads out). Claim nothing in the package should be a problem and to trust you. You do not want to spoil the surprise gift you put in the package for him. Your lad has to bring identification to pick up the package. Also tell him to be prepared to be interrogated by customs officials and perhaps be able to pay a small fine for your mistake. Make up a bogus department and address at the Lagos airport and claim all questions have to be handled in person. You were not given a phone number for the department. If the package is not claimed in 24 hours, it will be destroyed or returned to you depending on what works best to get him all frothy. You might be able to put him through the P4rc3l D1r3ct ringer again and as DQ suggested have the package show up someplace nearby.

@Becky - he mentioned opening an account to you too -- he tried to get me to open an account (WellsFargo he was insisting on) so he could send me his auntie's checks (orphanage) to me and I could send him back cash....

Ok so - he can't get the airline info from me...

So he writes P@rc3l D1r3ct's customer service:

Thank you for contacting P@rc3l D1r3ct. The information that you seek is considered proprietary in nature and is not given out to anyone. If you can give me your tracking number I may be able to help you better.

Thank you.

And the response:

Thank you for contacting P@rc3l D1r3ct. I have located your tracking number in our system. I must inform you that our shipping methods are labeled proprietary and may not be distributed to our customers or competition. We do not distribute any parcels to our competition for delivery either.

So my son was late for the bus this morning - so while I was waiting on him I wrote "Delivered & Signed" in the P@rc3l D1r3ct admin form...

And they were nice enough to ask a little about what was going on so they could make sure they were in line with what I was telling them -- great customer service - thank you !!!

If I had more experience at this, this would have been the perfect time for a small safari, but I was so pleased at his failed attempt with M7CN and then this postal service that I really didn't think about it (live & learn)...

Not sure what else this lad is going to do -- he's pliant and I had cooked up a few ideas for his auntie's orphanage, but now he's dropped that scam...so we'll see...

Customer Service at PD just wrote me ... of course I had the package insured...so after the lad complains to PD about the delivery they will mention that it was insured for 10,000 and try to get him to go on safari to Abjuda or K something (I'm really not up on my african geography yet) to fill out the necessary forms -- so this may turn into a small safari -- thank you PD Smile

Posted: Wed Jan 07, 2009 3:55 pm

well he may have twigged...

He was supposed to call me at 2:30 my time - he was very explicit about the time, and I didn't hear from him. He's normally on around 9:30 am but I haven't seen him today...

I've sent him a ton of off line messages from "I'm starting to think you don't care about me", "where are you I'm worried", "I'm going to the store, be back in 1/2 hour, don't go anywhere". "I was at least expecting a thank you"...

So I'll give him a little more time and see what develops Twisted Evil

Ivana,
Great job on driving your lad crazy.

Nope he didn't twig - he's still hanging in there Twisted Evil

I got this letter today:

I wrote him back a standard, "I'm so glad to hear from you, I was worried....what do you mean you don't have the package, it was marked "signed & delivered" on the tracking form.

Told him I had doctor's appt's all day today so we'll have to chat tomorrow Twisted Evil

It will be fun to see how this works out...I'm not sure he's smart enough to come up with convincing fake checks.

And why Wells Fargo? That's where he was trying to get me to open an account as well before he got all flustered about all the names he uses. I'm sure he'll be back to it...it's also good to know that he has P4rcel D1rect experience so he'll recognize the company name in case something needs to be sent to him. Twisted Evil

He has promised me a picture Monday...let's see how well he follows directions.

Posted: Sat Jan 10, 2009 11:56 pm

He wants to wire money to "my" bank account...money laundering comes to mind...

So far he's tried:

"my brother has malaria"
My aunt has an orphanage
Lets collect money for the orphanage
Open a bank account
Church of 7W@7 Membership form sent - Rev's Account
Send me cash
(cash sent Wink

)
Put off 7W@7
Forget about brother & aunt
Forget about cash
Open a bank account

Are you still baiting him Becky?

He certainly can't seem to stay on a scam for very long -- when I won't open an account I'm interested in seeing what goes wrong next Wink

He's gotten the Church of 7W@7 Membership forms that he was all excited about, but he hasn't responded to the good Reverend for about a week - Reverend sent him a "don't waste my time if you aren't serious" letter yesterday...

Posted: Sun Jan 11, 2009 3:01 am

^^ wow that was one annoying lad Ivana. I was waiting patiently for the moron to mention to us that he didn't get the package even though it said it was signed and delivered. If you want to get him to admit he didn't get the package and go for the insurance money, ask him what he thought about the private note you also put inside the book Wink

Posted: Sun Jan 11, 2009 3:31 am

Good Idea -- why wouldn't I have sent a private note to him...I've let him know I don't love him, but it could be one where I tell him I'm fond of him and asking about his brother -- hand written of course...I taped it to page 419...

Yes, still baiting him...although for me, his father is still alive.

Keep your eyes peeled for a scam where the lad wants money to buy some antidepressants. That lad has a lot of personal problems. He obviouosly needs a hug from a couple of nice burly Nigerian cops.... Twisted Evil

Posted: Sun Jan 11, 2009 5:33 pm

Heard yet again from my lad -- decided to get him on the topic of the book & money (thank you OD)...then he wants to go back to the topic of the bank account...then mentions the Reverend from 7W@7 briefly...denies the orphanage again...AND he's coming to visit (oh the forms)

me: I have a question

He decided to come back today...

So I decided since I was tired of him, I was going to catch him in his lie about the orphanage ... of course I was confused until I pasted him in the conversation we had regarding that...

me: ok

Now he is going to have to ponder that one. You are making him actually think now! He has no ability to space his words .... I get a headache trying to read it.

It is a little disappointing to just get an "ok" for all your trouble. I hope you hear from him again just to hear his excuse, unless of course you don't want to. I know what you mean about being tired of them. One that I only chat to every few days has an really annoying habit of using 7-8 lines of text telling me he is going to tell me something. I guess he is thinking and stalling, but it is exasperating.

He came back for some more today Twisted Evil

Spent about 2 hours chewing his azz over the orphanage thing, he claims I misunderstood but I pasted things back to him over & over again until I got bored with that so I let it drop (but I'll get back to that later)...

He didn't get his package today, but told me that was alright, things moved slower in africa.

I pointed out that I paid for it to be delivered on the 6th and I expected it to be delivered then. He told me I should have used Fed Ex. I told him to contact customer service, but he's too lazy to do that yet.

Since he's so unconcerned about 350$ I won't send that to him again !!!

Posted: Tue Jan 13, 2009 9:01 pm

He contacted me again today, all of a sudden he's in contact every day again ...

I asked about the package and mentioned I was upset since I put a fairly expensive surprise in it for his brother and him...

He's told me the post office has the package and it will be delivered this week and not to worry about it.

I told him that I paid PD to have it delivered on the 6th and it's been a week and he told me again things moved slower in africa and not to worry about it.
I told him if it were me that I'd contact Customer Service to find out what is going on, he doesn't want to do that yet ... I may contact "customer service" and be told the package has been delivered to the proper person and they no longer have the package.

I brought up his aunt's orphanage lie. He claimed it was not a lie, rather than get into a cut & paste argument with him again I told him I expected him NOT to lie to me again.

He didn't bring up the bank account today...

He's become demanding that I am on IM in the mornings when he comes on, I told him I'd try since some days I sleep in ...

Today he came on, was casual as ever about the delivery of the package.
Told me that he knew it would be delivered by Friday.
I was upset since I paid for it to be delivered a week earlier and it hadn't been delivered yet.

He asked why I didn't use Fed Ex and I explained they lost packages of mine before which was why I was so concerned about this shipment.

I let it slip that I packed a laptop as a surprise for his brother since he was ill. This caught his attention (350$ hadn't).
He assured me it was going to be delivered by Friday and he had been in contact with the postal department.

Later this afternoon I received a urgent letter asking me for the tracking number again - he expected it to have a cp? - so I provided the PD tracking number again. Explaining the "T WAS A CAPITAL T and the n was a lower case n".

So now lets see how lost his package got, and how much insurance money can get him on the road

I hope the lad comes back to us today so we can inform him of the insurance... after he claims he didn't get it of course.

In the future, I would suggest a lot bigger of a carrot, such as $5000 or more in the box, if you want to entice lads for safari. The higher the dollar value, the greater the chance of getting them moving. Very Happy

I just sent OD some pictures of smashed and damaged shipping boxes. It would be a huge shame if the lad's laptop computer was in one of those boxes. Twisted Evil
