First of all, apologies for the tripple post earlier. I got a hiccup somewhere when posting my initial message.

I always bait safely. I've got a gallery of characters, mainly related to my own profession as that is what I know best, and they have names that don't even resemble my own. It's a very good tip though, the 419 scammers are vicious and they'd try to sell their own mother if there was any profit in it.
Anyway, thanks for the warm welcome! |

Hi everyone!
I've been reading for a few days and now I'm fascinated .
A few things got me interested in baiting, one being that I'm involved with a non-related forum and occasionally we get the "iPhone G5........$500USD" type posts (yes, really a 5 way before they are out) which some of you have probably seen. I've seen a few originating from Nigerian IP addresses too . I've read many stories about people being conned by these and hope to join in with the baiting fun.
I've set up some fastmail accounts, even with a proxy, just for good measure. I even dug up an old binned scam post just for the email address, it's probably cold now though...
All the best! |

Welcome Spectre. Glad to have you on board. We have a forum dedicated to Phone-lads, though it's a bit slower in there nowadays. The Phone lads don't seem to be as prevalent as they once were, but they are obviously somewhat successful or they wouldn't still be spamming their format. |

I am the flash and just remember that.
I have been doing some baiting on my own but am looking forward to doing some more for the amusement factor. I have set up several fake accounts and have started another scambait recently. |

G'day folks,
Am having a ball with this new and interesting sport. I am devouring the guides and forum posts, my first Lad is coming along nicely and his time is being consumed by my 61 yo Sydney, Australia alter ego and his ridiculous doddering questions. I am having a dead set ball with this.
Cheers

Hi guys I'm new to all this, I've only tried baiting once when i received a job offer from a man in Africa who wanted details so he could send me money to buy stuff for him then send the stuff out to him, So i toyed with him for a wee while only 4 emails though, so I'm looking forward to getting to grips and get stuck into these scammers.. I've been reading the posts in forum and can i say well done to you guys on here they were awesome, had me in stitches hopefully one day I can emulate some of your success story's..

Hey folks, I am also new here, well not really, first visiting the 419 eaters as a guest and later signed in, today I would like to introduce myself. I already have a great mentor since March 2011.
This is really a great site, not comparable with what I have seen before. Keep on this good work.
Cheers,

Hello. I'm that one guy over there that you don't really notice but is there, like a omnipresent deity. Right now I'm looking for a mentor to help me get baiting. I tried the Cherrie thing and it didn't work.
Hope I get a mentor soon! |

^^^ one guy Hello and welcome. Since you have made one post you are eligible to sign up for a mentor. Use the following link.
http://forum.419eater.com/forum/cherrie_mentor_program.php
Be sure you read all the stickies, guidelines at the beginning of each thread, Eater U, the FAQs and forum posting guidelines.
At that point your eyes might be quite blurry. Be sure to bait safe and sign up for an email account not using RL information. Most of us use Gmail since it strips the IP and we can remain relatively incognito.
Also remember that some of the forums/threads are not behind a login so if you want to post something that might be googleable, put it behind Hints, Tips,.
Now I will go back to sleep whilst waiting on lazy lads to respond to my latest fiction writing! |

Hi all,
First off, let me get things straight- Hugh isn't my name, it's only the name of my persona Hugh Jarsse
Though since it's my display name everyone is free to refer to me as such.
Anyway, it's been great so far, reading through the archives. Many of the pranks you pulled on your lads really made my day. Look forward to working with you guys.
All the best,
Hugh |

Welcome to Eater!
Is that your baiter name? It's not a good idea for baiter names to have any connection with real life names or Eater names. Googling my baiter name gives no hits on Eater, even though my published baits are visible to all, because the name is obfuscated. Googling my Eater name, of course, brings up Eater hits. |

I have a few more personas that I'm still thinking of, and I've run Hugh/Hugh Jarsse through Google; it's, well, shall we say- common- enough to shield me (161,000,000 results for Hugh). Even more so is his similarly-named relative, Hugh Jarse. I added an "s" to make it look more European- not that your typical mugu would care anyway.
By the way, rest assured that this has NO real-life links whatsoever. Possibly with the size of my posterior, but that's a story for another day. |

^^^ True enough, but you already are #8 with google!
Welcome to Eater Hugh!
Pull up a chair and get to work! There are lots of lads out there!
Grab yourself a mentor, read all the stickies (there might be a test! ), bait safe, and have fun! |

Hello folks. I am still fairly new to this baiting thing. I have been trying it out for maybe a month or so. A lot of the safe baiting techniques have been a lot of help to me. I also really appreciate all of the links to the silly forms and generators that have been posted here.
This is a pair of items that were sent to me by lads already. What a strange bunch they are. (Notice the name I gave him on the second one)

Thanks for reminding me to write FAKE all over the ID card. Sometimes I forget that even though we know these as obvious fakes, a lot of people can and unfortunately do fall for it a lot. |

Hi, this is Otherfisse. I'm interested in baiting. Already signed up for Cherrie, and got like a dozen scam mails in my baiting account.
I was actually inspired by a Cracked.com writer. |

Hello again! I'm not a new user, in fact I've been here over 5 years, but I mostly lurk and it's been a long time since I've posted anything. I just got a name change so it's kind of like being a new user and I don't think anyone would have remembered me from the old days anyway.
I'm returning to baiting after taking a 3 year break. I'm also hoping to train a young friend of mine into the ways of our dark art.
I've done some pretty wild stuff but I haven't really posted much of it here on the Eater. Perhaps that will change. |
