Hi folks!

First I'd like to apologize for an unfinished bait that stood there for months and people got pissed because they wanted to know what was next. Now I've managed to finish it finally!!

*Please, I'd like to ask the admins to delete the previous post with the half of this bait called "A South African in Togo" and if possible, move the answers of other members to this topic here*

Hope y'all enjoy

Following the traditional format setting, all scammers text is printed in Italics, and my comments are printed in bold and sometimes in square brackets [like this]. Some parts of the scammer's text are highlighted in red to enhance some words, and I had to correct many others, because our friend's grammar sometimes goes beyond our knowledge. Some parts of my text might appear highlighted in blue.

[NOTE: Because I've been using my russian email account, there is still some text that has to be translated, so I removed the dates, some subjects and other small texts. All events occur between May 5, 2011 and July 7, 2011.]

Good afternoon Utz,

I don't know if I can help you with your transaction, because right now I am involved in a huge project in our company, with a profit of approximately Rand 250 million (USD 32 million) but you can help me if you can, we are looking for members all over the world and we are willing to pay, and pay well, for some minor skills.

So if you wish, you could help us too

The next day then, he replied:

Hello Dear Dwayne,

How are you today? I got your mail, i thank you for getting back to me.
As I was trying to inform you in my previous email, From the above, you can easily deduct without been told that we will need to handle this project with all sincerity and confidentiality that it required for the successfully execution of the project. I will therefore need you to assure me on the following;

1. That you will handle this project with all confidentiality and trust. That you will not inform any other person that means that the transaction will be between me and you only. This is in other not to raise any eyebrow or put me at any form of risk here in my country before the project is successfully to you. I have a family I cherished so much that I will not like anything to happen to them because I am their sole provided.

2. That you will not cheat on me, try to ran away or do any funny thing when the fund is transferred into your account in country for our sharing.

I look forward to your next response, For the full details on this project.

Yours sincerely,
Utz Ofori

[Well, well, I really wanted to get rid of this one quick, by puttting huge AMOUNTS of money in his face, but seems to me that he doesn't care.]

Quote:

Good evening, Mr. Utz,

thank you, I am ok today, and my day was busy, but good too. How are you? How's your wonderful family?

Once again I understand your wish of working with me and I am really looking forward to work with you too, but seems to me that you did not understand my previous email, stating that we are working on a project that will give us more income than your proposal, so I would have to choose to either drop the current project our company is developing, or to ignore your further emails. But then, I cannot simply ignore such nice offer and invite you to take part of our project.

The project is about contemporaneous african art, so we are flying over the continent looking for people with ORIGINAL artworks to buy, and exhibiting them in our expo to be held on the June 12, 2011.
The artworks include statuettes, paintings, masks(Bamana, Senufo etc) and other pieces of art. We need to collect 15 missed pieces, and will be offering up to 250 thousand rand per piece, that will be something like 32.000 USD per piece.
As a respectful man, I'd like to ask you, Mr Utz, if you can get us any of the pieces of art, wherever you are, we can send our men to pick up the piece and make the payment via a secure online source of your preference.

I'd like to ask some questions regarding your points. As in, what do you mean by "running away or doing any funny thing"? Do I sound like a kid who will run away with your funds or something? Or is this some kind of threat from your part?

I am not interested in your transaction, unless you give me strong reasons to drop our contemporaneous and classic art project which will make a profit of 250 million Rand, or 32 million USD.

I repeat, if you wish to join us, you are welcome - but I cannot do anything with your transaction

Wishes,
Dwayne

Mr. Utz seemed not to understand english, or he must have thought I AM THE ONE who has problems with understanding, so the next day he sent me EXACTLY THE SAME MAIL:

I sent him a short message, very clear and straight-forward:

Quote:

Mr Utz,

I don't know what are you trying to achieve, but you are sending me the same mail twice, and thank God I know how to read ONCE to understand. So please I suggest you to stop with this nonsense because you are wasting my time. Tell me the details once for all, or please seek another partner. No details, no deal

Well, he shut up completely, and that got me worried. So 5 days later I decided to poke him again:

Quote:

Good afternoon Mr Utz,

Haven't heard from you in a while, are you still interested in working with me? If yes, please inform me ASAP, if not, please kindly inform me too

Regards,

Dwayne

Interesting enough, he replied the same evening, saying some very interesting stuff.

Quote:

Hello Dwayne,

Thanks for your mail, I will get back to you with the bank contact, So that you will contact the bank, Like i told you.

Thank you and have a blessed day.

Sincerely,
Utz Ofori.

[Like HE TOLD ME...... I said to myself: please, deal with ONE CLIENT AT TIME; TO AVOID SUCH MISTAKES. Well, I don't remember of anything he told me. Anyway, at least I know he is still alive. But still, got to push him a bit more. I hate people who delay me, so I wrote:]

Quote:

Hello mr Utz,
I am not waiting anymore, got extremely important things to do, if you cannot handle such big business, please do not come up with such proposals.

Though the answers don't seem to match (this must have been a preset email, like in many cases), this definitely gave him a big push, and things started becoming hot... Just the way I like it.

Well this was a failure because an automatic response from @mail.ru sent me a report: FAILED TO DELIVER. The email address had been discarded or something like that. So it was time to come up with a new trick. Mr Utz, impatient, decides to show up again:

Quote:

Dear Dwayne,

How are you today? any good news? why haven't you get back to me?

Remain blessed.

Sincerely,

I was really busy in person, had to go to Namibia, so it took me a week to get back to Utz. I bought a new sim card and gave the number to him:

Quote:

Hello mr Utz,
I have been very busy lately, reason why i could not contact you. I just sent the request to the Bank, but unfortunately I will not be able to call, hence I am in a business trip to Windhoek, Namibia for 3 weeks and if you can, please call me to this nr: +264 (0) 814XXXXX74, that is my personal number for the time I am here.

I didn't reply to that because I was really busy with my personal life so I just sat and waited for his call that didn't take long to be made. Meanwhile, the Bank contacted me. Yupiiii, finally we start talking about money.

First, I don't know what means CLIAM. Second, take a look at the bank email address: does it come from China or something? Oh, and the Bank kindly sent me the form: It even has my name on it! And third, they were kind enough to add 500K to the general amount!

I thanked the Bank, by telling them I'd send the form ASAP.
Next evening he called me for the first time, but I was driving so I couldn't pick up. Well I had to excuse myself, obviously, and to complain about the fact that the Bank had already started charging me very stupid fees for stupid reasons.

Quote:

Hello Mr. Utz,

I saw your missed call yesterday but unfortunately I could not piuck it up because I was in a very important meeting.
In the other hand, I got the email from the bank with the attached document, and they require some information that only you have at this stage. The information is a copy of the death certificate of the deceased person, a sworn affidavit of claim by a lawyer, and some personal documents that I can provide. Meanwhile, mr Utz, I'd like you to send me a scanned copy of all these documents so that I can forward them to the Bank.
One thing I do not understand is the amount that has to be paid to the bank which is 950USD. Mr Utz, since you are the person directly involved with this, I suggest that you provide the 50% of the amount by making the deposit to my account, and then I provide the rest and make the deposit to the Bank.

So he replies:

Quote:

Dear good friend and partner Dwayne,

Thanks for your update letter from the bank.I have understood your explaination of not picking my calls last time. I'm very glad that the bank has respond to you. According to the letter from the bank to you,you said that the bank needs you to provide the proof documents of your cliam and the fee of $950 USD . And i want to know this $950 is it for what purpose?.

I'm going to send you the death certificate of the deceased person,and a sworn affidavit of claim that i obtain in court of justice on your name.Then, as for $950 USD , i sugesst that you should take care of it ,because i spent big money than this amount to secure the proof documents in the court but i did not ask you for money to avoid you complaing that i ask you for money for documentation. I have done well as your legal representative here to secure documents on your name ok. So I want you to help and pay for for it for now , but try to find out from the bank the reason why you are paying for such fee, whether it is right to pay such fee to the bank.

I Wait for your response,while i will be sending you the documents by tomorrow to forward to the bank.

Thanks for your good understanding and anticipated cooperation

So he called me, and I understood 20% of what he was saying, all I got was, I had to prepare the money, get the money, pay the money, give the money, send the money. All about money.

Next days were stressful in my personal life, so I ignored the small mails he would send me, until I woke up the beast in him... It had been two weeks of silence, so Mr Utz shouted:

Quote:

Dear partner Mr. Dwayne, what is happening? AND WHY ARE YOU SILENT ON ME????

YOUR PARTNER
MR OFORI

I was stressed with my exams, was spending the whole day in the University, and the use of CAPS to express his anxiety really irritated me.

Quote:

Mr. Utz,
Right now I am very busy, and you'll have to wait for my feedback, for I will get back to you in 3 weeks.
And, I can read very well so YOU DO NOT HAVE TO USE CAPITALS TO EXPRESS YOUR FEELINGS. It shows me lack of professionalism from you which makes me start doubting of your legitimacy.

Quote:

Dear partner Mr. Dwayne,
You don't have to doubt my professionalism or my legitimacy.because of my typegraghic erro of some of the content of my message in capitals. I did not write in capitals delibrately and i'm not expressing any feelings but i was just trying to know the cause of your slight silent for some time now. I hope it is not a wrong thing to ask you what is going on as your partner. Eventhough you are busy, it is your duty to lnform me of your busy ,so that i can be patient and wait for an update from you.

Secondly, it is unfair for you to keep the bank waiting, because i contacted the bank and i was made to know that you have not yet send the bank requirements to the bank up till now.So, you should write to the bank and let the bank be aware of your busy so that they will not feel negelated and cancel your fund transfer programme because of much delays..

As i quickly forward you the documents, i thought that you will follow it up fast by sending those documents and other requirements to the bank for quick approval and release of fund to you , but you keep silent for some while and later come to explain now that you are busy. Let it be that what you are busy for is whort more than this $25.5M which is to be approved and release to your account, if not your busy is meaningless.

Finally, since you said that you will update me in 3 weeks, i have accepted but one thing you should know is that a stiches in time saves nine and delay is dangerous in this kind of fund transfer. So if anything goes wrong because of your much delay, i will blame you. So i suggest that it is better you write to the bank soonest and plead them to grant you an extension of time to sort yurself out and get to them for the transfer to avoid any jeopardy in this matter.

Thanks for your good understanding and anticipated cooperation.

Your sincere friend and partner,
Mr. U;Ofori

HOLD ON! DID HE JUST THREATEN ME? DID HE CALL MY BUSINESS MEANINGLESS?

The couple of mails that come next will have a certain degree of explicit language and insults, so if you are sensitive to such language and feel easily offended, please do not read the emails in red.

Quote:

Listen carefully you asshole,
first I don't need you to warn me about any wrong step, you stupid *DELETED*. Second, I told you I was busy and this transaction should wait. If your ASS is itching from impatience, then you should look for another partner. If you want your part of this money YOU SHOULD WAIT until I proceed with the next step. And remember, don't you threaten me or blame me because your sorry ass is not going to do anything, sucker.
The stupid bank and your ass can wait very well, if you send me more of your stupid threatening letters, you might as well kiss our business goodbye and bye bye the usd 20m. It is your choice. Patience or loss of this business opportunity, you stupid asshole

Then a couple of threatening and insulting emails going back and forth, for the whole week. I do not have the patience to post empty mails with threatening subjects, insults etc. Enough of explicit language.

Suddenly I decided to go sweet on him:

Quote:

For your information, I wanna contact you personally. I can fly to you. Where are you from and where do you stay? Can I fly to you next week?

I believe this was something unexpected to our friend, and next day he replied, also in a sweet way (or so I thought before opening the mail). Duh, who doesn't want USD 25.5m?

Quote:

Subject: It will me and you good if you can came to TOGO. [Someone explain please, what did he mean by that]

Dear partner Mr. Dwayne,

How are you today? Hope all is well with you and your family.

I can see you are actually a nincompoop. How is scam how?? I have a lot of thing to do with my time, See, I don't have any bad intention you contact you on this matter.This is why i sant you the contact of the bank for to get more proof about this fund. Please, take this very important and understnd this is not a childs business so you have to abandon all you are doing there to take up this mantle and get the crown to out head now.

I explained to you severally that your send the bank requirements from over there will help clarify the fact that I am not just using you to claim these funds, i explain to you fool and senseless person, trying to get you on your foot but you lack sense of reasoning.

People that lack simple ideology are damm fools.

Your sincere friend and partner,
Mr. U.Ofori

Well, there are two things here, that even I did not understand:
1. - Subject doesn't match with the content of the mail.
2. Did we stop beefing or not? Someone still has bad feelings Twisted Evil

If I lack ideology then why are u insisting into emailing me? OUR CONVERSATION ENDS HERE. NO MORE DEAL. LOOK FOR SOMEONE ELSE TO DEAL WITH YOU.

Well, this finally woke him up:

Quote:

Subject: Re:Dear partner Mr. Dwayne,...( I think we have finished insulting ourselves as partners, so lets wave it out with smiles as go on into business ok!)

Dearest Dwayne, you can read again your below message you send me, and you can see all sort of words you used on me. I have forget and forgiven you. Why not you forgive me if i also use a bad words that annoyes you. You need to forgive so that you can be forgiven ok. I think we have finished insulting ourselves as partners, so lets wave it out with smiles as go on into business ok. If you are serious, this is not a thing to say bye bye in a deal that what millions that is coming to hit your account for our sharing and good investment.

Think twice and let us conclude this tranaction with the bank and meet together and celebrate it with Dancing Banana

What I'll need from you now is the basic info about places I can stay in, prices for the food etc. From which city are you emailing me?
Once I get all information from you, I'll be ready to buy the ticket and fly to you. Can you send someone to wait for me at the airport?

Quote:

Hello Mr. Utz,

Hole all is going good with you.
Things are becoming serious between me and you and this is indeed very important.
I've got good news for you - I just bought the ticket and will be flying to you very soon. Now it is important that you prepare the conditions for my lodging as soon as possible. This is what I'll need from you now:
- A booking in a nice hotel, 4 or 5 stars if possible
- A nice rent-a-car reservation for me, I'll stay for 8 days. Please book a nice car for us to use. A Wolkswagen Polo Vivo will do.
- Nice places for us to eat, best restauants.
Please understand mr. Utz, I'd like to have really good conditions this is why I am asking all this from you.
So here go the flight date and details:
I'll be flying from Johannesburg to Accra on the 25 of June, and from Accra to Lome on the 26 of June. The flight will arive at 12:30 of the 26 of June. So please I want you to be there personally and wait for me. If you write down my name on a piece of paper and wait for me at the door, it will be a pleasure for me.
I'll be waiting for your answer.

As things started becoming fun and serious, I had to do some researches about real scheduled flights for the days I stated in my email. Our friend might be smart enough to go and check out... So if he happens to pick me up at the airport, the real flight will be there... But, will Dwayne Boois be bold enough to leave the beautiful Johannesburg to land somewhere in the jungle? Let's find out...

Quote:

..............................

Oops... He went quiet again. It is the third day. And I only have three four more days. Three actually. I think he is testing me, see if I am being honest about me and my ticket... Well of course I am.

Quote:

Hi Mr. Utz,

Time is flying so I am waiting for your information. I already have the ticket and do not intend in wasting it. I cannot arrive in a country I do not know without any support.

Dwayne

Quote:

Dear partner Mr.Dwayne,
This is the information that i have given you;
1)You should come with the signing fee of $3,500 AND the amount of the proccessing fee of $950 , making it the total amount of $4,450 USD only.

Note that the bank will not attend to you without this total amount of $4,450 USD..

As for the hotel, i have booked a nice hotel for you and you will pay the hotel management upon your arrival, the hotel can provide you a car or i can rent a good car for you.

So do send me a copy of your international passport .and a shit of your fight sheldule , it will help me to wait you at the airport in other to recoganise you quick ok.

I wait for your response,

Your sincere partner,
Mr.Utaaz Ofori.

Alright. I proved my honesty.

Quote:

Hello mr Utz and thanks for your response.

Thank you for booking a hotel for me.

Unfortunately I cannot send you the copy of my passport because right now it is awaiting for the visa stamp at the Togolese embassy in Johannesburg, for I will recieve it only at the day of my flight, the 25 of June.
I would also like to tell you that my ticket is completely electronic, which means, there are no papers or sheets, only reference numbers which I can provide you with:
Note that I am only putting the last flight reference, from Accra, Ghana to Lome:
e-ticket number 1912 200 069 548, Booking Y0 S (your ass LoL) - STFU-78N.
Flight number ET23 operated by Kiwi International, from Accra International(ACC) to Lome International(LFW)
[The flight is real obviously].

Please explain to me, mr Utz, why do you need my flight information? Sounds quite weird you asking me these details now.
Now about the 4450 fee. What is it for? And how should I send this money? Are you sure it is safe?
Anyhow, I think it is absurd for the Bank to ask such huge fees just to attend me.

Hope to hear from you soon.
Also, please give me your mobile phone number to enable me to call you at the day of my flight.

Dont worry, i can bring you the money for the banking transaction. Everything is ready.

Subject: Huge problem

Good evening Mr. Utz,

First I address you my apologies,
I am still in Johanmesburg because the Togolese embassy cannot find the application for my visa so the stamp was never put in my passport. It is negligence from the staff of tjat embassy, they lost my form and made me fill another one.
Right now I am sleeping in a provisory bedroom provided by the ambassador, because I know nothing about Johannesburg, since I lived in Cape Town all my life.
The flight was postponed to the 3 of July.
Again, I am extremely sorry for not getting back to you. I am using the embassy computer. It is a shame that an embassy would lose a visa application form.

RE: Huge problem

Dearest partner Mr.Boois,

I have read your message with understanding and i'm believing you and also wecoming your apologies for this sudden occurance caused by staffs of Togolese embassy on your application for visa .Well, you should make sure that you sort yourself out with the visa issue quickly to avoid any delay since the flight was postponed to 3 of July. Your hotel reservation is still valid till july 12. When coming make sure that you indicate the actual time you will be arriving here in Togo Airport so that i or the staff of the hotel will come at the airport to pick you ok. This morning i was expecting your phone call that you are at the our airport before i say let me check my mail and know whether you send message. I hope there will be no more postponement after 3 of july ok.I will let the bank and hotel management the new development about your coming and they will be aware and expect your arrival as from 3-4 of july ok.

Do keep in touch both on mail and phone call till the time of your departure ok.

My Regards to you,

Your partner,
Mr.Ofori.

I'm waiting for yoiur urgent answer

Subject: I will be coming tomorrow

Hello Mr Utz,

As I said im my previous mail I am now sleeping in an accomodation provided by the embassy, and the access to the internet is restricted.
Indeed I got your calls but could not hear you at all.
About the embassy, well, this is the information they gave me, that South African citizens have to travel vith a previously stamped visa and active banking account...
Yes, I'll be flying to you tomorrow, using Kiwi International, from Joburg to Accra until 19:15, and then from there to Lome the arrival was rescheduled to 23:55. I am really sorry about all this bloody situation, but as you have seen, I am not giving up at all. I know it is a bit late for you to come and pick me up at that time but please I need your personal presence there and not third parties, so I feel safe. Please wait for me at the reception corridor of the terminal with a piece of paper with my name on it at exactly 23:55, so I recognize you easily. I flew with Kiwi International many times to Nigeria and Morrocco in business trips and must say they are very rigorous with their time tables.

Once again I apologize for the trouble I am causing you, but hopefully this will come to an end soon and you'll even forget this happened after you lay your hands on that cash. Well, I will relax too...

See you tomorrow, Utz!

Dwayne has arrived to Lome but there is no one to pick him up. Dwayne starts worrying as he's in unknown territory with a briefcase full of cash.

Quote:

Mister UTZ,

Good afternoon I am in Lome writing you an emal from a cyber cafe.
First, no one came to pick me up, so I slept at the airport which is already stressing me.
Second, I am trying to ge hold of you and cant call at all, because Togo Cell is a very crappy network.

So where are you? i need to meet you ASAP. I cannot wait here anymore.

[Dwayne cannot call him, doesn't he get it? He's not going through! But somehow he managed to find the hotel...]

Quote:

I am at Novela Star right now. I had to make another booking because they said the previous one seemed to be faked. Still cannot get any sim card because no one speaks in english here, and people insist in speaking french. I cant speak french at all!
Find me at the room 12 today at 10 o'clock because time is flying.
And, if I had to lie to you about anything, I am sure you would never notice.
I am already stressed by the fact we haven't met. Let us finish this quickly so I return back to Cape Town in peace.

I'll be waiting for you at my room or the hotel sitting room. You'll recognize me quickly. I am the only white person here.

UTTAZ.

I definitely appreciate your lack of professionalism. I am leaving your crappy place you call city as soon as the first flight back to South Africa arrives. You made me spend a thousand bucks to fly to you, now you cannot even show up at the hotel when I ask you to. I cannot call you for obvious reasons. Your phones are ass-expensive, credit is expensive and everything in this country of yours is crap.

Goodbye Utz, I cannot do business with non serious men like you. You are a joke. Thanks for making me spend money with no use.

I am flying back tomorrow.

Lad then sends an empty mail with the same subject: my number is *snip*, call me now.

Quote:

Utz
Why are u not saying anything??? Your mail is empty.

Quote:

Mr.Dwayne,how can i waste my time to answer a joker like you? I never knew that you come to joke. I have respect on you and that is why i book hotel for you and you did not come Togo, but you sit in your house in South Africa and written message that you come. If eventhough you are a joker as i regard you. What can prevent you to call me on phone where ever you are so that i can come and pick you. I also inform the bank that you come and the hotel management but later it was true that you did not make the trip. How much will it cost you to make a local call in lome TOGO? .What convince me that you are really a joker is when you said that making call in TOGO is very expensive for you. Could immagine a person that come for business of millions, can not make a phone call?. That is bulshit and i was speachless ans surprise of your uncalled manner.

If you are reasonable, only one thing will convince you that i'm for real and this business is real. I refuse you to send me when you ask me and i told you to hold your money and if you come here, i and you will go together to the bank and do all the bank formalities. But your igorance has made you to loose what belong to you.

Thanks for your dissappointment.

Mr.Ofori.

A couple of days went by, I think 12 days, and Uttaz's silence was definite. I thought he had given up on me, until... I got another email from him!!!

I don't need a joker like you in this Business.

Mr.Utz Ofori,

[Yes, I made a terrible mistake, I burned him openly.]

Quote:
