By the way, does anyone else find it unusual that the lad was using his real name? It struck me as kind of odd.

Congratulations on your safari.

It is contrary to accepted wisdom, but I have seen one, probably two scammers using some derivation of their own name as the receiver of WU transfers. I assume those are the ones that cannot afford a fake ID.

Posted: Mon Dec 14, 2009 2:21 pm

Thanks, that's good to know. I was beginning to worry that I sent an innocent man on safari. Smile

He ain't moving anywhere soon, though.

i will do exatly what you have said and wait for him in the hotel from Rev.J.B.J0hnson

Well done mate!!!

Posted: Mon Dec 14, 2009 6:57 pm

Well done!

You should open up a travel agency you're so good at this. You're stimulating the world travel economy one lad at a time! clapping

Posted: Mon Dec 14, 2009 10:15 pm

Nice work. It's nice to see a lad stranded, since that appears to be a one way ticket.....

Posted: Mon Dec 14, 2009 10:53 pm

Nice job! Congrats! Do you suppose he has enough dough to get back home? Razz

Posted: Tue Dec 15, 2009 12:11 am

Congrats, Nick!

happy crowd

Flight + hotel ~= US$270.

A fine result... Very Happy

You do realise you are making a contribution to the global climate problem with all this unecessary flying aorund by assorted lads ... you should be ashamed of yourself!

NOT!!!!!

I'm trying to beat my old record of $6000-and-something. I don't think it'll happen this time though, unfortunately. Razz

By the way, I've been completely booked up the past 24 hours or so, so all of those letters came with no responses in between.

But now that I have a bit, I sent him the "encouragement" he asked for. Very Happy

EDIT:

N N N: Considering last week it snowed here for the first time since the 70s, I'm not really concerned about global warming. Wink

Everyone else: Always a pleasure. Very Happy

Posted: Tue Dec 15, 2009 1:11 pm

Uh Nick, I've been baiting a guy with the same name. Check my signature, I sent him all around Togo and Benin. We might be baiting the same guy, which would explain why I have not been able to get him on the road again.

Congrats on a job well done:D

One of my lads, also uses (what i'm assuming is) his real name on bus & flight tickets.

Posted: Tue Dec 15, 2009 1:25 pm

SSA: Yep. Same ol' Reverend J0hnson.

AL1VE: There's been a lot of that going around lately. I wonder whether there's any significance behind the phenomenon. Confused

Great work! You know a lad is dumb when he can't even spell "stredded" correctly. Smile

Posted: Tue Dec 15, 2009 5:58 pm

Aaaah, lad torture. Conveniently NOT against the Geneva Convention.

clapping

Posted: Tue Dec 15, 2009 6:03 pm

I love lad pain. Can you get him to move a little further and stred him good? He's still got some cafe money so a nice taxi ride to the next town might eat up a bit of that and any chance he has of getting home for Christmas. Very Happy

Posted: Tue Dec 15, 2009 6:03 pm

Fire up the blowtorch and burn this lad... Fantastic work mate!!!!!!!!

Posted: Tue Dec 15, 2009 6:27 pm

Mike: Where does "more than stranded" find itself on the scale between "stranded" and "stredded"? Baiter semantics. Very Happy

Nap: The whatta convention now? Wink

BD: No burning yet. I wait until I've sucked them dry and broken their spirits. Then, and only then, when they have nothing but a dim flicker of life left, does the "BWAHAHAHAH" come. Razz

I rarely get that far with lads, though. Mostly I just get bored of them before I reach that stage.

Jose: You know I'm infamous for my absolute dearth of skill when it comes to maintaining - or rather, extending - safaris, but I shall most certainly try. Very Happy

Posted: Tue Dec 15, 2009 7:03 pm

Well, it seems it's time to act. Good thing L@urent's family can sort everything out in Yamoussoukro.
