you have send the payment information, the (MTCN) information is missing from the information you sent, where is the (MTCN), we need the (MTCN) very urgent because without the MTCN there is no way the money can be withdrow from the system of western union here in Ghana.

I shall wait for the MTCN as soon as possible.

Dear Mister O. (is that your full surname?),
I've been fizzling and bimbling to sort out all this for you.
What is these MTNC you talk about. I can't remember being told of. You know I'm an elderly lady and I get rapidly tired even when brushing my false teeth. So please explain me this MTNC procedure.
Sincerely,
Laddy B4te

Quote:

Madam LAddy B4te, the meaning of MTCN? It mean western union control number, call the western union office where you send the money from and get the western union control number, it’s made up of Ten digit number, so check your payment slip you will find the western union control number, send it to me as soon as possible without the control pin the money can not be windrow here in Ghana, Madam when you get the control number send me an SMS to my Telephone line, +233 2450 xxxxx +233 2450 xxxxx , also indicate the city and country where you send the money from, I need the information on my phone, I am waiting to get the full information from you. Madam, How old are you?

Very old

what a nice young man can he give you the number for WU so you can ring and ask for a made up binary number Wink

Posted: Wed Oct 07, 2009 9:24 am

Yes, so next thing you do is, to tell him that you didn´t find any "WUCN" (Western Union Control Number) anywhere on the form. You only found the "Western Union Phone Number" and give him the very same Twisted Evil

Posted: Wed Oct 07, 2009 10:02 am

Maybe *he* should call Westy to ask as you can't see it anywhere...

How about saying that part of the form was just 10 empty boxes? Maybe the counter worker at your Westy stole the money and it'll take simply weeks to sort out, perhaps a bank transfer would be easier (etc etc)

I love it that you gave him the temperature of the Westy office Wink

I am baiting this same guy, Edward, he also wants me to send money now, I told him I don't have western union and he comes back with than use money gram. I got to come up with something else to waste his time, I am thinking I have the flu and can't get out of bed for at least a week, maybe two. Laughing

Tell him, "I'm 97 years old. And now I think I need to dial 911 on my phone right now. I've fallen, and I can't get back up."

@Wickedbitch...
You've got him where you want him. Moneygram is the perfect time-wasting, lad-irritating modality.... Here's how: Send him an email containing the information he's requesting, including the 8-digit Reference No. you've made up. He'll traipse down to his local bank to pick it up and, whoa!, it's not there and he'll complain.

Apologize profusely and tell him that you accidentally transposed two numbers of the Reference No., but here's the correct number. Same fruitless trip to the bank. Same result. Big-time lad complaining.

Then he'll ask you to scan the receipt. No problem. Use Deuzer's fantastic MG receipt generator [] and transpose two different numbers from the previously transposed numbers. Apologize profusely and send to lad. Another worthless trip to the bank and mega lad complaining.

If he's like most, he'll ask you to resend the whole transaction. No problem. Repeat the above. I do it all the time. It's a blast!!!

I have one lad that won't stand for that. I gave him one bad MG number and he's now insisting that I pull my money out of there and send it through WU. Needless to say that won't happen without a fight Very Happy

I get that every once in a while, too, especially when the lad has been to MG three times without success. But the fact of the matter is, there is NO Western Union anywhere around me. Just Moneygram. Of course, if the lad would like to send me a bank account, I'd be more than happy to do a wire transfer! Razz

How does WU work on their end? Can they find out the amount or just that the MCTN is valid?

I'll let a veteran member decide if this is a good idea, but maybe you could send $1 (it was supposed to be $100 or $1000 but the incompetent clerk typed it in wrong). Then the mugu has to go to the WU office for that. It might infuriate him even more than a fake number.

Of course, all that depends on it being untraceable, and him having to go to the office to find out it's only $1, and it not being too expensive/troublesome to send that $1.

^^^^^
I don't recommend sending acutal money, since A) you'd still have to pay a fee to send $1 and B) Lads spend money, we don't Very Happy

Baiters like MG over WU because there's no way to check the MTCN online, so they don't know it's a bogus number until they actually make a trip to the MG outlet. With WU they just have to check online.

Scammers like WU over MG for precisely the same reasons Very Happy

Thanks, that makes sense.

I don't mind putting in extra effort and wouldn't mind putting in extra money as long as I'm having fun Cool

But I haven't spent any money on baiting yet and I only put minimal work into it. Creating alternate identities is a lot of fun, though.

Posted: Wed Oct 07, 2009 5:44 pm

Yeah, I found out the hard way that lads can check a WU payment online using just your name, they don't even need a number. I had to scramble a bit to explain that. From now on, I'm pushing hard for bank to bank transfers.

OMG - you just reminded me of one Lad who panicked when told:

Quote:

I made the transfer, to the equivalent value of £2500 (slightly over $4700), today, by Moneygram. For safety's sake I chose to have it collectable from one location only – the Hadlow Post Office at High Street, Hadlow, Tonbridge. That's pretty close to where you work.

He wrote back:

Quote:

I begged you to help me make the transfer through the Western Union Money Transfer with the details I have given you because I know that is the best way it will be received easily considering the urgency of the need and I am assuring you that in terms of the security of this Money, you have nothing to worry about as long as you use the details I gave you because I do not have a confidence in that Moneygram and I do not trust it. The last time my friend made a transfer through it, his money got stocked till date and he did nothing about it. Since then, I have always preferred Western Union Money Transfer. So my brother, please do re-claim the money from the Moneygram and transfer it through that Western Union Money Transfer details as I gave you since he will be the one to collect it from the office and I trust him like I trust you.

Several days followed of pleading to use Western Union that just left me helpless with mirth.

I can feel his pain. If my money were to get stocked till date, I'd probably be mad too! Laughing

It is Bob de Mol's tag line, so there is no hiding from google. Better to just not send it to a lad at all.
Accuse him of trekontlasting instead? That's quite a serious offense as well.

Edit: trekontlasting is the thing where when a wire is connected to a plug or an appliance, it is clamped to the body or chassis, so that when you pull on the wire, the force goes to the mantle and the chassis, not to the actual wire and the circuitry.
Whoever suggests that it has anything to do with Master Baiting or scat is the little pervert here. Razz

^^ Trekontlasting? I leave the translation for that word up to you. Little pervert Laughing

Anyway, a small update:

Quote:

The number you gave me is a foreign number. My phone contract doesn't allow me to dial numbers abroad because it is too expensive.
I will try with the sms method you are talking about. Do you have the emailaddress of this service?

Quote:

have you confarm the western union control number? Madam Laddy B4te, when you send money via western union money transfer, the office at the office will issue full payment information to you, eg, receiver name, security question, security answer, receiver country, control number with 10 digit number eg, 1, 2,1,1,-9, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, i hope you understood me clearly, thank you madam stay bless.

Guess what MTCN I mailed back to him Very Happy
