I got a new scammer. He wants a photo. Is there a site where I can get photos from to use? I told him I have none on my pc and he believed it. But now he asks for one again.

Are you still waiting for your friend who is a professional photographer because you want to look nice on those pics? Sadly, he will not come for some weeks.

If you think the lad absolutely needs the pic choose a less well known celebrity from Google.

This site is popular with baiters who need a photo to send a lad:

@windypops: Yikes! That is one hell of a site. I can't believe folks actually post their pictures there.

I use the Canoe Man sometimes.

Using the pic of a convicted fraudster seems strangely fitting somehow.

A warning:

On this site a window popped up inviting me to click and to strange things to my PC. As a Mac user, I shouldn't worry, but I didn't dare click it.

You could always use pictures of serial killers, like Ted Bundy or John Wayne Gacy.
Chances of the mugu recognizing them is pretty close to zero.

You are a nice woman, just normal, ready to be scammed?

You are a pastor in a small English village, middle age and so eager to send money to his secret female lover in ..?

Google is your friend. I mostly use actors, criminals etc. As long as you do not use an innocent person in real life.

thanks again for your help guys. I use a not so well-known actress now.

When I am asked for a scan of my passport, I utilise a useful tip that I picked up here a while ago. I simply type this at the bottom of my e.mail:

<passport.jpg>

It looks like a dead link. The Scammer asks me to send it again, so I just copy and paste it into my next e.mail. They invariably give up asking.

About passports, if a mugu says he didn’t get one, the file doesn’t work. Always insist it did and or they received the file. I know a lot of baiters have kittens when a mugu challenges them on passports. They have to prove they did not get it, which is impossible.

This also burns up time, and a bit of mugu sanity
