Dear Beloved Brothers and Sisters in Christ.
My hearty greetings to you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Rom 16:16.. I request your kind permission to introduce myself with your compassionate attention.
My name is Mrs.favour Johnson, I am a dying woman who has decided to donate what I have to you and the charity organization around your community.
I am 62 years old and I was diagnosed for cancer for about 2 years ago immediately after the death of my husband who has left me everything he worked for and because the doctors told me I will not live longer than some weeks because of my health I decided to WILL/donate the sum of $5.7m to you since I don't have a child.
Therefore I humbly request your benevolent honor, to please remember in your divine prayers of Orphan Children, Aged widows, Sick people, Leper people, family and Church, and consider our supplications, to share this service.
You should contact me immediately with your Complete contact information so that I will put you in contact with the establishment to enable you arrange with them on how to get the money for the purpose mentioned above, I can't predict what will be my fate by the time you will recieve the fund, But you should please ensure that the fund is used as l have described above.

Basically, the top one wants me to think of a charity to donate the money to, so if I contact the top one, tell them I want to donate to Saint James, and the bottom one to say I have someone who will donate, exchange email address etc.. Do you think they'd bite or realise that they're both at it?

I think if you play it right, you might be able to get them to team up and both scam you together. That could get pretty interesting.

It's a tough one though, lads tend to ignore other lads and just focus on their own plan.

If you send them to write to each other, they'll spot that the other is a scammer immediately and probably warn you about the other or just drop you.

You could play go between for quite a while and then eventually introduce them down the road. They'll still likely warn you that the other is a scammer at that point but it would be more fun if they're each hooked.

I had the bottom one and was seeing about buying a baby from them. I think I pushed too far too fast though as he's gone from sending several messages a day to none, although its only been 24 hours.

It might be even more fun to get them both hooked, then introduce them to each other and call one a little bit later - after he has written to tell you the other is a scammer. Record the call - we love hearing lads explode, and they tend to explode when trying to convince you he's genuine but the other one isn't. Laughing

^^ I did that once with a couple of lads, using Skype to 3 way call them and just sit there quietly and listen. I am so glad they invented mute because it was hilarious listening to them try to stay in "character" and figure out what was going on. Of course it helped calling them at 1am. Too bad it didn't record correctly.
