Hello I'm New here! Joined: 10 Jan 2013 Posts: 9

Hello All,

I have a few names but mainly I am known as Christopher Ransom, I have been baiting for about a year for my own personal entertainment but recently met J.Hancock through a LAD by accident, so thought I better join up.

Previously I have done prank phone calls and face to face pranks which without sounding too big headed I mastered pretty well, altogether I have about 12-14 years of experience in that field Smile

so the next step up the ladder to me is to put it to use and hopefully ruin some 419ers.

One issue I am having with my current LAD is that he wants Western Union payment on-line I have blagged him and blagged him "sent him 750 Nigerian Naira instead of dollars" the nice chap is even offering me instalment payments. any ideas to progress this one would be appreciated.

Anyway Thanks for a great website!

It would be such a shame if Western Union was having an issue and the lad needed to send you a bank account you could transfer the money to for him.

Yup, tragic.

Welcome to the board xjester! Nice to see the person from the other thread came visit us. One thing to keep in mind is that you control the direction of your bait, not the lad. Control your pace as you are comfortable, control method of payment and mostly recognize that MG is a much better way to pay if you cannot get the bank account. He can check WU online without ever leaving that stinking cafe. With MG, he has to physically go check it. Think of it as a benefit for your mugu!

I was online trading stocks, out with friends deep sea fishing on the yacht, out elk hunting, etc. You don't spend all day as a slave to a computer.

One of my persona's is a rancher and has to milk cows, feed them, round up strays, fix the fence the deer damage, shoot coyotes that take the young, etc. This leaves me out of cell range most of the day everyday.

Greetings, Xjester! I'm new here too, but I've only been baiting for a couple of months now. What kind of face to face pranks did you do?

Next Victim- Thanks for that info on MG, I didn't know they can check WU from the cafe. From now on I am insisting on using MG.

^^^You're welcome for that one although bank accounts are preferred by me. They get you these little pink pigs in your sig line for reporting them.

I remember reading something on here about getting bank account info and reporting it, who do I contact if I get an account to report? I'll definately work on getting some accounts, I want to be as effective as possible in my new hobby. The MG thing is good info though for getting them off their lazy butts!

Send the account to Alan (a small animal of some sort who lurks around on a pair of jeans). There's a sticky explaining how to send them to Alan.

Alice,

Me and a few friends have always been good at talking absolute rubbish and keeping a dead straight face. When we were younger our main idol was Tom Green so that sort of explains our humour. from weird orders at shops to confused tourists with "limited" English. We have hundreds of hours of video footage and telephone calls.

To get a piggy, let them smell the money, then let them know MG WU is out.. Bait hook and reel it in..

I told my lad, my bookkeeper won't let me use it for tax records as it is unverifiable.

With MG WU out.. wave the cash..

Would you prefer a money order or bank transfer?

1, Your full name snip
2, Your home address fake
3, Your occupation Rancher out of cell range most of the time
4, Direct Telephone Number 1-google voice or IPKall number VM hell Very Happy

Thanks for the link to Alan, I bookmarked the stickie.

Xjester, I love the 'candid camera, confuse the poor bystanders' sort of pranks on video. Have you loaded them on youtube? In not, you should!

Agent...I will definately work that. I have a lad now from India (checked the IP, it's my first non-African lad!) who I had fill out a lengthy 'anti-money laundering form', but I told him I was sick with the flu so I'll bring it vack to WU tomorrow (tuesday). So later in the day tomorrow, I'll tell him WU's system is down and I can't find a MG near me, so I'll seee if I can get a bank account from him 'for my deposit to secure my loan'.

Besides being a public service, baiting is just too much fun, I am so glad I found you all!

I have used this one i the past also. I told them he would shut down every bank account I have for a audit if he caught me sending money that way.

So I have sent my first bank account off to Alan, and have a few more on the cards. God I feel powerful Smile

Lads are mostly wise to this and can use an online locater to give you directions to several of the closest locations. It is hard to bait when your lad is a step ahead of you and point out a location a half block away.

It has worked with this one lad from India, but I have seen what you're talking about in other people's baits posted on here. They send a long list of WU or MG stores in the baiter's supposed location. My good baits are ones where I either say I will only show up to their country with cash in hand, or I make them go through lot's of hoops to get any cash. The others I have been playing really slow minded and kinda dumb potential victims, sending them lot's of exuses. Those won't be much fun to read on here, but they seem good for taking up some of their time.

I just had one bust me for using photos of actors (from the show Warehouse 13, so it's not really well known actors), and I thought the bait would be over then. But then I gave him the line 'I was just protecting myself, I would have told you the truth before I got there', and damn if he didn't accept that and come back for more. So yeah, they are definately getting wise compared to baits from earlier years that I read, but I am finding their greed overcomes their intelligence.

Nice recovery!

I still can't believe he actually went for it! It's part of my first ever bait, which has gone on for a few months now. It's still going strong too, but I'm definately taken aback by how their desire for that cash just preceeds all logical thought.

@xjester - Good going on the piggies. Wink
