So... what was the biggest payment lad requested? Smile

My current lad wants 12 000 and I think it's the biggest fee I've encountered.

Post your "records" Smile

i've got one now asking for his $139,000 that you get for joining the gboyz, but thats a product of me disinforming him. he is hard up for money, he has (supposedly) gotten the tattoo, but cant afford to have photos taken and doesnt own a camera so im left waiting again, it took forever just to get the tattoo, he kept telling me he would as soon as he could get the money, took him months of begging his friends for the cash, and now he's back to begging for more just to prove he got it.

but he wont get his $139k without the pics Smile

I'm currently getting a demand for $20,000. I originally owed a mere $3,800, but the money was intercepted by Mr. Gomer, and the lad kindly paid the fee himself. Now, however, I owe an additional $20,000 in demurrage charges because of all the delays.

My highest was $17,000 but like others mentioned above, that was the product of my own story. I was the president of a fake college fraternity that had raised $17,000 for an overseas charity. I haven't used that character in a while though.

Aside from that, the highest asking price I ever got from a lad was (I think) $4,000.

^^Mortal, in a previous thread, (and it is a current co-bait with credit to PG Malone here) our pet lad requested $38,000 to ostensibly
"pay the Private Investigator" and in what may be a first for REFUSING that amount of money, requested that we PLEASE DON'T send it to him.
(That was later after a series of events.)

The influence of Chairman Gomer had more than a little to do with the refusal. Once again the might and power of Gomer is manifested in Lad Land. btw the thread was titled "Scammer refuses $38,000"

One current Lad is demanding $100, 400 in two separate lots; another wants 13,300 euros ($17,700).
Just under a year ago a Lad wanted $200,000, while at the same time wanting $432,000 for twelve bottles of wash-wash chemicals (using a different Lad persona on the same :maga")...

I had one Lagos lad ask for £20,000 which equated to $23,000 Canadian Dollars (just under) at the time. He even kindly worked out the amount using a currency converter.

He was one clever lad as well. I think he really felt he had me hooked and I was good for the money.

Finally he caught me out as he actually read about my bait on here and put two and two together. When he fronted me about it I told him it wasn't me and he had shot himself in the foot effectively by letting me know he was a scammer. I told him I was good for the money and he would have got it if he had not tipped me off. It shows the value of keeping in character, he wasn't happy.

I had a love lad ask for $20,000 US. It was so he could come to the US from the Gambia. He claimed that is what it would cost to pay the "travel agent" to get him his passport, visa, plane ticket, and pay their fees, etc. He was not shy about asking for it. He asked my character if she wanted him to come over and be with her, and if she would marry him. She said yes and in our next chat he came right out and told her that is the money he needed to do it. I have never had a love lad ask for that amount of money just like that before.

From my very limited experience love lads and refugees are the quickest to ask for money. The business proposal ones are the ones that take the time to cultivate you and tend to ask for a lot less

My highest - $50,000 followed by $60,000 from the same lad. He was a bit of an excitable fellow as you can imagine. (He's the source of the threesome quote from my sig). All this for $17,000,000 I supposedly had in a swiss bank account.

The first $50,000 arose before he realised I jsut didnt have that kind of money. Every week or so, he would raise a little more and eventually I was going o send him $7000 when I was hospitalised on the way to the moneygram after being in a car crash and robbed Crying or Very sad

I had to sell my car for it damnit XD

Finally, as soon as I sold my house to help him, he hit me with the $60,000 fee. I supposedly sent it to some dolla choppas and he flipped the shit, resulting in many funny phone calls. Eventually though, he got bored of jumping through hoops and dropped me. I had fun with that guy.

That comes out to just $36,000 per bottle - quite reasonable really considering how much similar bottles are going for on ebay currently and how many black construction paper $100 bills each bottle washes.

F@ther Tuck3r mailed a suitcase filled with $40,000 USD to this nice lad in Chad, ... it ended up in the wrong country 4 times ( darn the Air Mail carrier.

But the elderly priest was determined to get that orphanage built, and decided to take it over himself. Too bad he ended up in Guinea, kidnapped, and held for ransom. Crying or Very sad

*sigh* what a world we live in.
