I've having trouble getting my lads off scrupt, I think.

What do you guys do to break them off asking for the standard list of personal info:

Quote:

1. FULL NAMES AND DATE OF BIRTH
2. YOUR OCCUPATION
3. YOUR PICTURE I.D
4. YOUR CONTACT ADDRESS
5. YOUR PRIVATE TELEPHONE AND FAX NUMBERS
6. THE NAME OF BANK WHERE THE FUND WILL BE TRANSFERRED
Etc...

I've got two at this stage. Help me break em!

- Ignore the request.
- Feed it to them one item per email.
- Give them a whole set of (false) details and try some other way to stall them or drag them off-script.

Or anything else you can think of!

I love Donvito's method of answering these lad questions.

If he complains tell him that he will need to upgrade to Vista.

I just give them the bare necessities, that being my "name" and a fake address, and then ignore the rest even if they keep asking. Probably infuriates them.

Thanks for the replies guys.

I think I'm gonna try Donvito's method.

EDIT: I've just had an idea Twisted Evil

I'm going to send him the info in seperate emails...one letter at a time. When he complains, it must be an error on his part right?

This is where you get to be creative. This is where you get to slow the pace down to a pace that is comfortable to you.

Make up the answers. You can give more details than they ask for, like:
Name: My name is Jonathan, but my friends call me Jon. My family calls me Jonny, but I don't like that anymore. I keep telling them that, but they don't listen and it makes me so mad that I want to blow ther f-ing heads off. All except my grandpa who calls me Little Jon. I like that because to Robin Hood and the Little John there. I feel all big and powerful when I think about Little John. Of course my GF doesn't call me Little Jon though. She is totally impressed with my size and she brags to all of her friends about me. That is totally awesome and I love being the subject of their conversations. I have even had some of them offer to make me happy. I turn most of them down. Do you think that is good, or should I do what they want. I know that I have spoiled it for some poor smuck in their future, but it was so worth it to me, and they didn't complain. What next so we can get this transaction going? I need money asap!

If you do that he probably won't want anymore information from you.

It is possible that he will drop you, but then it probably would have been a boring bait anyway. For me, the more you slow it down the more control you have. If you just rush in, giving him everything that he wants, he controls the pace.

On the other hand, he is probably just checking to see how compliant you are so he can pass you up to the next level and start asking for money. It is your bait, so play it how you want. Learn from what happens and use it next time. Sadly, there are plenty of scammers out there.

Best and bait safe!

Usually I use the ASEM method so this really isnt my forte, however I have a couple of times straight baited for a laugh.

What I did was filled in the name and telephone number, then basically said see attached file. I attached a medical resume with 25 years of different jobs as a doctor, at which hospitals, what duties, clinical priveledges etc.

He then emailed back asking for more details, so I made up a false brochure advertising my services as a doctor working as a locum.

He emailed back again demanding this detail and that detail.

I just kept emailing him attached files with medical type resumes etc.

In the end he gave me a mouth full of abuse on the phone and called me 'A false professor, a fraud star'.

haha was a hoot.

If he asks for a photo of your passport play stupid. When i got asked this it took me 5 emails asking before i sent him a photo, i sent him a photo of the cover off a passport, which i got off google.

Slow to a crawl, one email per lad per day is a nice pace, means you can keep dozens slowly stewing and working through their scripts so you can torture your favourites whilst lubing up the next toys Smile

It's nice to appear compliant yet stupid - ask what he means by picture ID, etc. Answer the questions one email at a time. Then your scanner is broken so you have to fax him the ID and what is his fax number? Oh you didn't realise the scanner and fax used the same broken bit can you send a photo of your passport (then send a massive and unopenable DLL renamed passport.jpg) etc - but if you appear compliant and stupid you'll almost hear his teeth grinding Smile

I just give them details from here: http://www.fakenamegenerator.com/ and skip the ones I'm not sending (like ID). Once in a while you'll have a lad push for a picture ID and then you can go through all of the junk file modalities, but most of the time they think you're compliant and just move on.

Posted: Thu Feb 05, 2009 6:09 am

They need your name and suchlike for their pretty certificates, so you'll probably have to give them up after a while. No problem letting them stew for a while though.

The difficult one is when they ask for the information as a form that you have to print, fill in, scan and send back. Filling in forms is best avoided. It's easy enough to do, but it proves you have access to a working printer and scanner and that you know how to use them. Bad idea.

They need the info for the scam to go ahead, and also to gain trust in you. If you are doing your job right then before they give up on the idea of a form, you will have proved to them that you are real and trustworthy, but they still need stuff to put on the certificates. So be sure to send them the info in text. ("Here's the info you wanted. The scanner's broken and the cat widdled on the printer, so can you fill it in for me?") They'll complain like hell, but if they trust you are for real they wont insist on the form.
