I have, like most people, had to deal with 419 scammers for most of my life, and I was very excited when I found out about this website a few years ago. I have only just now decided to take the plunge and give Scambaiting a try, and I am still quite new, but I am trying my best to figure things out as they come up. Thanks for making this site have such a great community, everyone 
--James
P.S. Not my real name. Not even close. Aphex Twin rocks, though 
And before it comes up, yeah, I know his name is actually Richard  |

Wow, thanks for the (awesomely quick) welcome 
I have a quick question: Is there an IRC or chat anywhere? I am starting my first bait (with a Korean person who apparently doesn't know Hong Kong isn't in Korea?), and I could use some help (and live help might be a bit better)
Thanks again |

Welcome, James!
We don't have a chat, we use the forum. There are baiters on here around the clock because we have members all over the world. So, you'll usually get pretty fast responses to your questions.
You can also sign up for a baiting mentor who will correspond with you one on one and give you guidance. Look in the scambaiting help forum for the Cherrie Mentoring program link to sign up for a mentor.
Edit: corrected name.  |

I tried once previously, but I will give the mentor thing another shot... And thanks for letting me know about the forum, I will post if I get in a pinch, that will be helpful
Thanks for the help! |

I think you have to have a little activity on the forum before you can sign up for a mentor. Do try again.
Sorry I had your username wrong when I welcomed you. I've edited my post to fix it. |

Yay, this time I got a mentor
Don't know why it didn't work last time, it was probably my fault
I will let you guys know how my first bait goes, I will try my best to work hard and stay committed. Thanks for all the help, guys |

Thanks for the welcome, Bravo! Yeah, it is a bit odd, but after making the posts, the registration worked just fine... I suppose it is to keep bots from being able to get mentors? Anyways, loved the clown trophies, hope I will be as good as you one day

It would appear you lost the mentor lottery.

Howdy James, and welcome to Eater! You got a good mentor (they are all good, actually) -- don't worry, he looks scarier than he really is. Also be sure to check out the invaluable information in Eater U.
As Ima said, a post in the forum will get a response that's just about as quick as chat. Bait safe and have fun!
@Corona, your goat is looking very well groomed today! |
