This damned bastard is ignoring me. Another lad sent me his scam via attachment, and a short message to open the attachment. Its a jpg, and of course I sent the usual "i cannot open this" routine. The email came in less than 15mins ago, so I would have thought he would replied by now, thinking he 'hooked' a victim, but nothing.

So I am requesting a mass emailing from different 'characters' stating they got his email, but the attachment is broken.

[email protected]

0 = o
3 = e
5 = s

Sure maybe this seems extreme just to get the initial script out of him, but still I would figure a few bunches of mails from everybody might annoy him a bit.

I've sent him a request, but don't you think 15 minutes is a little short to wait before thinking he's ignoring you. It could be that he has other accounts to monitor, calls to victims to do (after reading their new emails with contact details), or it might be something as simple as him buying a tiny amount of time at the cafe and it's now up so he's gone and won't see your email till next time?

Probably, then again I usually always get an instant reply, this is the first time I haven't gotten anything from a lad in such a long time. Either way, I figured I would use this kind of laddish tac against him, in the way they do when they think they are about to get a payment, and suddenly send mail after mail telling the 'victim' to hurry up and give them the info for the payment or whatever.

I guess I also shouldn't have had so much coffee this morning. I'm quite jittery Y`KNOW!? WHEEEE!!! Very Happy

edit

Who cares if he has 'so much to do?' , he should be paying more attention to ME dammit. ........ I like to badger these lads... badger badger badger badger........mushroom!.. Very Happy

Curses!!!

I've only just now received his first reply. I wonder why he waited a day to respond to mine and not to Cathartic Kate's? Nevermind.

I've responded saying that I once knew a Mohammad Imran Sa1im who was involved with drugs and such, might this be the same man? I've got a whole heap of other baits on the go, so if this one goes nowhere, I won't be too bothered. However, if I can get him moderately off-script with his next reply, it'll be a nice bonus.

...because I am cuter?

Well cute and sharp and well able to pull the wool with lads.. and sometimes baiters as well.

Cool

Duh!

Posted: Mon Feb 22, 2010 12:23 pm

Happy_Slacker, did Simon reply to you?

He's being slightly responsive to my questions about the identity of Mr Imran. He still wants to stick to his script, but he's addressing my concerns. Definitely worth keeping.

At least equal, let's put it that way.

Posted: Mon Feb 22, 2010 1:19 pm

The only 'reply' was the same mail a day or so later, asking me to open the attachment. Since then I have lost interest, since Cathartic Kate got his initial script from him I just copied it from her. Thats all I really wanted, and since he insists on being a complete dick and not replying to my request and sends me emails asking me to view the attachment, I don't really see any other reason to care.

Posted: Mon Feb 22, 2010 1:23 pm

Well, he's willing to discuss things I mention that are not entirely in his script, so he's got the potential to be entertaining. For a while, anyway.

Posted: Mon Feb 22, 2010 8:17 pm

Well he did FINALLY now reply, TWICE with his script in the body of the email. pff Rolling Eyes

Posted: Tue Mar 09, 2010 12:56 pm

Are you still dealing with Simon Ridley, Happy_Slacker?

I am, and he's VERY entertaining. I've now introduced my character's teenage daughter and Simon suggested that she and one of his own sons start writing emails to each other. Lots of fun ahead!

Posted: Tue Mar 09, 2010 7:17 pm

Nope, as the original purpose of this thread I just wanted his initial script. As he finally got around to sending it, I then didn't do anything else with him.

He hasn't bothered to check back with me anyways since, so thats his problem, not mine.

^^^ Did you unl33t his email address?

Posted: Tue Mar 09, 2010 11:55 pm

I tried to dilute him by being a vic. Older guy using a text to speech screen reader. I tried to hint that I opened the attachment and saw text but unalbe to read it. I asked him to resend as text so my screen to spoken voice converter could read it to me.

Sadly it bounced. He didn't get it.

I did no tricks to the box.

That was my first mail. Just a note to the team the mail is dead.

Posted: Tue Mar 09, 2010 11:59 pm

No, it isn't dead. It works fine.

Did you convert the numbers to letters (which the original poster did so that the proper email address wouldn't show up on Google, etc)? If you don't change the email address then... yes... it won't work. Because what's written up there character-for-character is not his actual email address.

Posted: Wed Mar 10, 2010 12:41 am

didn't fix the addy.. I'll try again. Thanks.

Corrected addy worked. Waiting a reply. I hope he can help me as my eyesight isn't so good anymore.

Shocked

Posted: Wed Mar 10, 2010 12:34 pm

Well, he's now got his 20-year-old "son" communicating with my character's daughter.

Here's the picture that the son sent this morning...

Apparently, he's called Brown Mike Ridley, and he didn't explain what he has in his ears.

Agent1002: If you get along with him, he'll send you to his lawyer (J0ubert Sch0ltz) who will ask you to write to Mary James at the bank, who then passes you back to the lawyer, who then sends you two of the three documents that Mary asks for, who then passes you back to Simon, who asks for a contribution to pay for the final document of the trio.

But that's just his script.

See if you can distract him elsewhere because he's definitely willing to invent new people if it looks like it will help.

Posted: Mon Mar 22, 2010 11:31 am

Hmm. After several weeks of things going well (for me, that is), Simon Ridley appears to dislike the idea of my character sending a cheque to his lawyer.

I am fine Mr. xxxxxxxx
Regarding your mail, I am sorry for the cheque you sent
Because I told you to follow my instruction but you decide to do your own
mind
Now I don’t know how to start about this cheque please my lawyer will not
listen to me I know him please kindly forget about this transaction let me
find another partner we listen to me and we can help each other and get
this fund out
Thank you Mr. xxxxxxx for your understand please contact the people you
give your cheque to retune your cheque we don’t need your cheque ok
Do you know reason why I am not happy with you I give you the name to pay
the money but you went ahead to post a cheque no I am not sure I we
continue with you.

I've written back to say he's being unreasonable, of course.

Posted: Mon Mar 22, 2010 11:42 am

finks son is GAY and offering!

Posted: Mon Mar 22, 2010 12:09 pm

GAY? He's very much playing the "I love you, you're so cute" line to my character's daughter at the moment. You think he's just, I dunno, pretending or something? Oh no!

Anyway... within half an hour of me responding to his last email, he comes back. Never underestimate the power of apologizing!

Lad wrote:

Mr. xxxxxxx How can I believe you that you are telling the truth I don’t
mind to go ahead and pay for that document without your money but I want
to be sure that I am dealing with a good man that wont disappoint at last
because this fund is coming to your account first before I will have my
own share you know that so I am afraid because as you cant afford to pay
250 pounds fees for the document so how can I trust you with such big
amount of money on your hand tell me Mr. xxxxxx how ?

Ok Mr. xxxxxxx if you can send 150 pounds today and tomorrow to me true my
instruction, then we can proceed and I we complete the rest of the money
and pay the lawyer for the document ok
Regarding what you said about western union listen Mr. xxxxxxxxx western
union is the easy way to received money as a little money like this one
250 or 150 so I know and for your information I am an old man and you have
all my information’s so I don’t need your 250 or 150 I just want to be
sure who you are before I can trust you with my own share.

Thanks you Mr. xxxxxxxxx for your understand

Regards
Mr. Simon

Posted: Mon Mar 22, 2010 12:42 pm

250 reduced to 150 and doen't need them.

Of course he can trust you didn't you introduce your daughter to his son? Ypu are family now and always you can trust family.
