Speaking mugu seems quite simple, found it easy to learn a few key phrases to throw in to replies. Most mugus seem to speak igbo (or atleast understand insults in igbo)

thedevguy is the resident mugu-speak expert. And it would be good to have several coordinated baiters involved, playing the role of various g-boyz, or victims or wahtever.

I am going to respond briefly to the lad posing as the recruiter for the Gomers. I will tell him that my email was a test and that he passed. I will post the headers from his email in a new thread called "Phone Plan Mass Bait", so you will all have his info, and we can coordinate a mass bait. Let the games begin!

As a travel agent for the WIMP modality I can attest to its efficacy. Just send your lad the scripts after he has gained your trust and away he goes. As an insider at WU you would never let out that special information to anyone you did not trust. Laughing

I use a variation on the Lotto winner on check senders. As the check is being sent to the Premium drop box I let the lad know that I have a very rich stock broker boyfriend. While its never a good idea to educate a mugu, I feel its not a problem to waste their time educating them about the margin buying of stocks and how a $10 profit is converted into a $50 profit.

Once I know that the check should have arrived at the drop box I let the mugu know that I cashed the check and invested it all on a margin call on a stock such as TripAdvisor. I use this link to pick my stocks and always pick the high flyer.

The lad will come back with a CAP LOCKS SCREAMING and SHOUTING message. I send him a reply with a link to the high flyer and tell him I have doubled MY investment in two days.

Once I've gotten his undivided attention, I tell the lad about the parties I thrown with MY money involving champagne, cocaine, Viagra and more stockbrokers. By the next week I've heard some insider information, act on it and profit again. Dangling lots of cash keeps the lads on the hook.

^ very nice Very Happy

Lads HATE IT when you spend "their" money. Absolutely hate it. hate it to bits. In fact, reading this I feel the need to do it again.

Another favorite modality: snail mail.

Lots of mugus will pretend to be an officer/director or employee of a real bank or other real organization.

To discourage this practice, I like to send the following e-mail (assume the mugu claims to be working for Central Bank of Nigeria):

"I went to Western Union like you asked but, when I found out how much money it would cost to send the funds to you by Western Union, I realized that I could get it so much cheaper by regular mail. And the post office is just across the street from the Western Union office. Anyway, I mailed the check to your attention at Central Bank of Nigeria (insert address of REAL Central Bank of Nigeria). The guy at the post office said you should have it in about a week. Let me know when it comes in."

Naturally, the mugu cannot admit that he does not really work for Central Bank of Nigeria. And, when you advise that your check has been cashed, what does he say then??? If he denies getting the funds, you insist that he launch an internal investigation at Central Bank, because (obviously) one of his assistants must have received and cashed the check.

This tends to cause considerable mugu frustration - - particularly when you decide to pay the second amount by mailing a check also!

You are so evil Bruin I love it as well as Connie's ideasl.

When the mugu is the official of some made up bank or company if you have some basic web building skills you can create a site for his company on one of those free sites. If he has sent you one of his offical documents with their RSOT even better you can scan and cut and paste them into the site. If you do use the provided details of the mugu make sure this company has a separate mailing address which you make up.

You can then say you used the mailing address on this site and will make him think that his dolla is being chopped by another mugu.

Orphelia - Be careful making a web site for a bank! One of our eater members got into trouble with "the authorities" some years back who were not amused with a fake bank being established on the web.

Thanks for that Bruin so when they come with their fake bank say I'm sick of all the red tape dealing with banks I want to deal with venture capitalists instead.

Bruin, I am very interested in using the friends and family calling plan modality that you described here. I think that could be a self-perpetuating bait, as more and more frustrated lads who can't reach you give you their phone numbers to call, and you just pass each new number around to your "lad phone chain", to be bombed in turn. You could also ask the lads to send SMS messages with certain choice phrases used "so you know it's them" to the recipient's phone if you know it's a cell.

I'll start it up soon and let you know how it goes.

Posted: Sun Nov 18, 2012 9:59 pm

It can very easily turn into a perpetual chain!

Let me know how it goes.

Bruin

Posted: Sun Nov 18, 2012 10:11 pm

^very easily, since for every number you flatten you get dozens back.

re, fake banks: Don't make them! Big legal trouble head if you do. let your lads make them up, then put them in our fake banks and sites section for killing. This will waste a lot of their time and money.

I've started up the lad phone chain and it's working well so far. I have sent four numbers through the mass ASEMs already, and I'm getting several more back. I'm putting some of the formats I receive into surplus, and I'm using multiple baiting characters to keep the phones going. One is a regular victim character asking for info, another is a fake lad insulting them in ladspeak, and the third is a fake bank president asking where they can send the check. I'm trying for piggies too with that last one.

Posted: Mon Nov 26, 2012 4:14 pm

Good luck! Post an update how it is going in a week or two!

Posted: Thu Nov 29, 2012 11:57 pm

Got this from one of the lads in my phone chain today:

Quote:

So thank for been unfaithful to me. why am saying this is because the number you gave was wrong and i tried it several times it was wrong and it finish my credit

I call that a success. Very Happy

Posted: Fri Nov 30, 2012 12:57 am

I love doing that. So much fun.
(904) 241-1080 (FL united states) is the notorious Whistling Pickle. Give it to your lad and tell him to leave voicemail after the whistling stops Twisted Evil

It has been whistling continuously for years and guess what ...

Posted: Fri Nov 30, 2012 1:10 am

^ Funny you mention that, I have given that number to lads before and they tell me it doesn't work. They might be lying, I haven't checked by calling it myself.

One of my characters even "lives" in Jacksonville because a brighter than average lad checked the area code.

Posted: Fri Nov 30, 2012 1:34 am

I've always loved the "Evil Bank Predident" modality.

Posted: Fri Nov 30, 2012 1:58 am

I'm now giving some lads a number that perpetually sounds like someone with bad reception:

202-629-9226

Works very well. I'm google chatting with a lad right now who thinks he's also talking to me on the phone. He's complaining about being low on credit, and when he asks me to call him back I just say the connection is bad in Ghana and it says I can't get through.

14 UK lads have had their phone numbers put through the lad phone chain now, I ramped it up over the past week. I have a baiting character and email account devoted entirely to this modality, and I'm going to keep it running for as long as I can. Hard to keep it organised though, the sheer volume of emails and needed replies is tough to keep up with.

My fake lad character I have reassigned to baiting for piggies. He's more effective that way, the insults weren't doing much.

Posted: Wed Dec 05, 2012 4:03 am

Big x -- Don't burn yourself out! Baiting should be fun, not hard work.

Posted: Thu Dec 06, 2012 12:03 am

Don't worry about me. I am having fun with this one. It's minimal work for maximum frustration. I just copy/paste the same message over and over, adjusting the phone number as needed. It takes a long time, but it keeps the phone lines going.

Yes don't do this, it is 'possibly' illegal. Fake church maybe Smile

20 UK lad numbers and 3 US lad numbers have gone through the phone chain now. I still have a character devoted to this and he's keeping the phones going better than a telethon organiser.

I had one lad email me telling me he changed his number and that I should call him at the new number, and that's how I know it's working. I'm not going to call him, but I will have several other lads call him. Smile

Posted: Fri Dec 28, 2012 10:31 pm

Bumping this one again, I just got my favourite response yet from a lad who has gone through the phone chain:

Quote:

What sort of rubbish number you gave to me? i called more than 35 times and the person that picked always said i cant hear you if you can hear me call back, what sort of rubbish is this?

Bruin, you are an evil so-and-so.	View next topic View previous topic
