Hello all!
Today I received this e-mail on my catcher account. I'm already trying to bait some other scammers, but this one looks pretty interesting for me.
Since I live in Costa Rica I can speak fluent Spanish. I want to play around a little bit with this lad but I'm wondering if he really speaks Spanish. I guess not and he had this translated (some spelling errors inside this mail + some English words).
What is you suggestion to continue with this lad? Continue in Spanish, English or in a Costa Rican 'street language' called Pachuco?
I'm still investigating where this mail originated from, but as I'm writing this my catcher account is unavailable due to maintenance. I will post the IP ASAP.

Madrid is another lad hotspot so it is possible, but it's more likely he's translating ... but as I don't do Spanish I can't tell ....

It's most likey a Nigerian lad, using an online translator and sending to spanish speaking email addies. The number is nigerian. Bet he doesn't speak one lick of Spanish. You could call him safely to find out. You can check the headers here to find out where he is:

A bit of French has crept in too.
Very odd. No translator, human or machine, would do that.
As you speak Spanish, I think you should bait in that language. Especially as he can't. Get him off-script and see how his command of the language holds up. |

Thanks all for the quick replies .
I've noted that his IP is from Nigeria:

I think I'll fire a couple of Spanish e-mails (from a new e-mail address that I need to create, in order to play a Spanish character). First I'll start with messages that he can translate so he will respond (hopefully). When we are in business and he doesn't do it my way I will get angry in the local dialect so he has no idea what I'm talking about .
About calling him: will be funny, since I don't speak a word english . On the other hand: I don't want to spend my money on a guy like this and calling from here to Nigeria is not cheap, even when using Skype. |

My experience as well is that they don't speaka the language. I've had "Spanish" bankers who didn't understand a lick of the language. Just keep responding in Spanish and let them spend time using the translator. And don't forget...you have a hard time understanding English.
Pura vida mae! |

Are you sure? I think he was trying to say that you could withdraw money from anywhere in the world. But why wouldn't the translator say, "Parte del mundo" instead of leaving "world" untranslated? |

The Ghost From Germany and I did this to a lad, Don Steady in Audio forum, and it was hilarious. He went nuts trying to understand the MTCN in German. Get your lad to the hooked payment stage, and I can do it for you in Spanish. Just signup for skype, and send me a PM when you are ready, if you want to to do it. I have Skype and I don't mind picking up the tab and waking up a lad on a funny modality. |

Im still waiting a spanish-spoken lad!!!
BTW Im from Central America, too!
I think he used a translator... bait him in spanish, use your "pachuco" language and tell him in a perfect spanish that you are gonna send the money ..
Make sure he understands perfectly the payment part, so he can see your interest instead of your demands.
Good luck!!! Dont forget to post it !!!!

@SlapHappy: thanks for your offer! Let's see if I can get him to call you, or you calling him, to have some fun with him .
@Ana: you are more then welcome helping me with this lad. Let me see if I get a respons and I'll get you in the loop. If you want to you can also try to bait him yourself . It's not a bait that I own and the more Spanish replies he get the better |

(I keep it English here so everybody can follow it)
Ana, the mail was sent from -mail address-, but in the mail itzelf he also refers to -another address-. I've send mail replies to both addresses.
Here is what I wrote him, just to make sure you won't write the same :
Code: |
Estimado Sr. H4rr1s0n,
Estoy sumamente sorprendido de haber recibido este correo! Nunca he ido a Nigeria ni tampoco utilizado el ATM allá. Pero estoy increiblemente feliz por el premio que gané! Me podría explicar como es esto posible? Estoy muy interesado en recibir este premio lo antes posible!
Gracias de antemano,
P3dr0 V4lv3rd3

Dear mr. H4rr1s0n,
I'm very suprised to see your e-mail. I've never been in Nigeria and never used an ATM there. Still I'm very happy that I won this prize! Can you please explain me how this is possible? I'm interested in receiving this prize as soon as possible.
Thanks in advance,
P3dr0 V4lv3rd3 |
I've insterted the letters so the names won't appear in Google.
Have fun, and please keep me updated as well . |

I've got an answer in my mailbox:
Code: |
querida,
He recibido su correo electrónico y estaba bien señalado.
Me pondré en contacto pronto. |
Clearly from a translator. I'm curious why I received an answer like this (he's telling that he will get back to me soon) instead of a 'normal' answer. Perhaps he's looking for a translator?
I'll give this lad a call later today (at a very inconvenient time for him) to check his Spanish. I've had some great help yesterday evening and feel confident enough to do this (using Skype).
Edit: forgot the tell that he addressed me as a girl, while my character "P3dr0" is clearly a guy... |

@Ana: your reply came 5 minutes after mine. The text is *exactly* the same, just translated into Spanish for me.
@All my fellow baiters: should I respond and look like I can't wait to collect my prize or is it better to relax and wait for his answer? |

After I teased him a little bit by telling that I'm very happy with the prize because I just invested $100.000 in a real estate project (so he thinks I'm a wealthy person) and asked when I can collect my money he came up with this (again horribly translated) answer.
Code: |
mi querida He recibido tu correo y te entiendo.
Como se vio en el mail que le enviamos a principios de este dinero de ustedes fue aprobada legalmente por el gobierno de Nigeria.
por lo que es en el documento adjunto es la letra de la aprobación del gobierno de Nigeria.
todos se fueron para usted ahora que hacer es que nos diga cuando va a llegar a África y recoger su tarjeta de cajero automático con su carta de aprobación del Gobierno de Nigeria, pero si usted no puede venir a Nigeria decirnos lo que debemos saber qué hacer .
|
Attached was a document from the government of Nigeria. Unfortunately (for him) it was in English, so he needs to translate that for me . Let's hope he's willing to do that. As long as I play rich and willing, do you fellow baiters think he will do this?
@Ana: how's your bait going? |

He's playing along nicely so far for you.
@w00tzer - He will probably have trouble getting a Spanish version of his scamming proficiency certificate or whatever document he sent you, so my guess is you'll end up with your name on a marriage licence from Chile. |

The lad really thinks he has some big fish I think because yesterday I didn't bother to answer him and today I received 2 messages containing the word 'URGENT'.
I didn't give any clue about going to Nigeria or not (as Ana wrote: he gave both options) but I did tell him that I don't speak any Spanish. He has to translate the document for me.
The money is no problem, since I will pay with my new ATM card .
Let's wait and see what his next answer will be. Does anyone have experience with a 'duo bait'? Perhaps Ana and I can work something out together to keep the lad even more busy. Maybe we should both travel to Nigeria (ofcourse, without knowing from eachother). Any tips? |

Duo baits are quite common. Just work out the details with your partner. One baiter pulls him one way, another baiters pulls him another way. If you're both travelling to Nigeria, make sure the dates are the same, but the cities are not. Maybe he'll have to recruit some lad friends to handle two victims at the same time. |
