Is it just me, or are all lads celebrating easter?
Today I got only 5 new scammails and no respone from my lads.
They are really ruining the weekend! Sad

It appears they observe Easter to some degree, although mine are still mailing:

Have a nice weekend and remain blessed.

I wish you happy Easter in advance.

I think probably they're celebrating Easter. I have one lad though who seems a bit confused. He sent me this on March 30 in an email:

Quote:

Happy New year to you in advance..

I don't know why I always get the stupid ones that have been dropped on their heads. Confused

This lad has disappeared for now, but my other ones are still with me for now.

Quote:

happy greetings of the season

from a lad yesterday.
In my reply i wrote back

Quote:

i should stop reading the thesaurus now.

I was told the "bank" was closed for the holidays and they would get back to me on Monday. Doubt they are celebrating, probably just trying to seem more legit. Though who knows? I guess criminals need a day off every now and then too.

^^ or an Easter truce. March 30 was Passover, not too many lads are Jewish that I know of. Yes, it will be a quiet weekend in Lad-land.
I have the same thing going, a decline in scam-o-grams.
"Criminals need a day off too."

I am really bored.
No Mails! Neither reply nor introducing mails.

How can they do that? Don't they know that I need some baiting to make my day Wink

Mystery solved.

My outlook isn't syncing correctly.
Luckily I have one lad on facebook and he wrote me about mails he sent me.

Let's do some baiting!!! Razz

One of my lads is on "easter celebration leave" until Tuesday, while my character is stuck in a hospital! And the lad expects the money on that Tuesday, too!

Brainiac: Criminals just wanna have fun! Laughing

So they use holidays as an excuse, even if they don't celebrate them! Twisted Evil

Well if you're really bored write to my lad tracyben2010 at hotmail.com , he is active today. Just name a price and ask him if he is ok with that price. He will be ok with most any price and he wants to send you a check plus a little extra for shipping.

^^Well, what about 1 penny? Laughing

Worth a try.. Smile

I'm selling him a Japanese pizza oven and sushi roller, 22 inches of alsatation hair, an intrepid device, 12 inches of dark dog hair (might be a different guy) and a yellow pony tail. All with different ID's, of course.

I wonder how much it is costing him to mail all his bad checks to fake addresses?

^Email sent (Offer included golden condoms, pennies, a golden refridgerator, etc. + a randomly large amount of Icelandic Crowns!) Laughing

Well that should make a nice change for him. He must be tired of buying dog hair... Smile

I don't normally tell him what I'm selling until the check has been sent. The lad and I just call it "the item" until I have the check and then I make up a name for it. The lad dutifully cuts and pastes the exact name of the item into his follow up emails.

This actualy worked well for me. I'm in a big Easter production. I have a singing part. With all the prep and rehersals, I've been fairly busy too. It's over now, so we can all get back to the grind. I've included the RL activity in the active mass bait in the I've been hacked thread. I just sent out a bunch of letters explaining my late replies due to the holiday and activities. I think they won't have much trouble buying it.

hey, uh, yo partysan; would it be OK to hijack your format for Lad use?
You can use my "WestinOnion call center" k7 206# which i generously posted in Hints & Tips. Sound like a fair trade to you ?? If you need more than that pls let me know and I can sweeten the deal somehow...

@ brainiac

Very Happy

Sure, go ahead !

Actually - the [email protected] is a working one, with a autoresponder giving more details, like the handling fee, (if one of this suckers will ever claim his prize).

And I am thinking now of setting up the website with FAQ's, etc. So - more to come !

update: FAQ's for winners .. http://futurelabs.eu.tv/FAQ-winners.html

Let's have fun.
Parteeeeee!

Hey Agent, good work gettin' a shameless plug in re: the I been hacked thread. That particular lad needs some serious hard pokin' to get a rise out of them. I find 4 in a row, 1 minute apart has been working for me.

They may have partial blindness, really HUUUUUUUGE Fonts work well too

Nancy Smith: Thanks for the mail - just about to write a nice offer for "A surprise box full of different things".

There is one that takes Easter seriously :

Quote:

Thanks and may the almighty God who resurrected from death yesterday be with you and every member of your family in Jesus name, I will like you to send to me your direct telephone number so that I can call you and pray with you on phone, I am promising you that I will do everything humanly possible to help you and your partner secure the documents and sign them on your behalf and if there is any way you may need my help do not hesitate to let me know.

Now and then I understand that the lads are falling for our fake churches and orders so easily.
I like the idea that all the lads are little calvinists.
