Not one of the complex chopping/pounding/craziness baits that I enjoy so much, but I wanted to put a straight one out there for the new baiters as an example of the game. Feel free to steal any and all of the ideas and dodges. The time frame (so far) is just over a month.

And this lad is rolling in it...I'm going to get $2 Billion. Sweet.

Incoming...

Lad: Dear Client,

Billion U.S dollars from Credit Suisse Zurich, Switzerland due to lark

Blah Blah Blah (He sent me the same spam again, halfway through his scam. Like I said, not too bright. I ignored it.)

-----

Carl: Well, I checked and none of those work here. I thought RIA would because they're an online service, but their site says they don't service the area and to use the others I'd have to grow wings and fly.

Is there an alternative?

-----

Delivery to the following recipient failed permanently:

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

(Dead email, rats. A good reason NOT to report these to the host. Email addresses are easy to create, baits are hard to finish when they're gone!)

-----

Carl: I have been talking to the bank, but the email stopped working. What's going on? (I took a shot at the original address to see if I could sniff him out.)

-----

Lad: kindly contact them now with this email,
(xxxxxxxxxxxx) (That's a good lad...)

-----

Carl: Do you know what the hell is going on?

-----

Lad: what just tell me,
what is going on,
and not that the fee will soon be increase ,

(Either they passed me to a new lad without telling him anything, a second lad stole a live one - me - or my lad is a flaming idiot. A whole new script!)

-----

Carl: Are you saying that you have an ATM card for me worth 2 billion dollars? (In case he forgot the amount, since it's not this new script. I'd hate to get cheated.)

Is this some sort of joke?

-----

what joke,
your ATM CARD is here in our office ,

-----

-----

THIS IS FROM DHL COURIER COMPANY IN BENIN,

Occupation:retired
Id Card:HI994876
Phone number; don't have one, no phone service in the area. at my age, i probably couldn't hear the damn thing anyway

What next?

-----

Lad: your email is well received and noted therein ,
now the only thing that delaying now is the transfer fee which can only cost you $500.00
so get back to me if you can afford it because some time you people can even call the right one some illegal name ,
so tell me if can pay it and have your funds transferred to your bank account,

(Definitely a new lad with a new fee amount or the old lad stole me back. Bank acccount? Ah, the magic word.)

-----

Carl: Yes, that's not a problem. I can transfer it to your account just like you're going to do for me.

-----

Lad: that is okay and here are the information where to send the fee through money gram,

1.receiver name______Joseph Onyi
2.country___________Benin Republic
3.question.__________last
4.answer_____________fee
5.amount______________$500.00
6.sender name_______

Await your urgent reply NOW,

you are said to made the payment any time you like but note that the more you are delaying is the more your ATM CARD is expiring ,
it is better that you send it today so that by tomorrow i can transfer your funds to your bank account as i told you that it is the only thing that delaying the transfer,
so go now and send it and remember to attach the payment slip ,thank you,

(Now we're back to the ATM card instead of a transfer. This lad is confusing himself.)

-----

Carl: Moneygram? You said you want it sent to your account and that is how I would prefer to do this. Moneygram is not safe at all, there's no way to be sure the money goes to the right person. Companies like moneygram and western union are perfect places to lose your money.

Please forward the account details to send the money to so we can proceed.

-----

Lad: I TOLD YOU THAT THE ONLY WAY YOU CAN SEND THE FEE IS THROUGH MONEY GRAM SO THERE IS NO NEED OF ASKING MUCH QUESTION GO NOW AND SEND THE FEE THROUGH MONEY GRAM NOW,

-----

Carl: Look, I don't think I can be more clear. Not only is moneygram used by scammers all over the world, but I don't have access to it here anyway.

As I said, I can send the fee to an account with you. You're a bank. Why are you delaying this?

-----

Lad: okay i will give you bank account by tomorrow morning,

(Oink.)

-----

Carl: Thank you, I look forward to hearing from you then. If you can get it to me by this time tomorrow, I can get to the bank that day.

-----

Lad: i will get back to you next 30mnite,

-----

Carl: It is 7:30 am here now, what's going on?

-----

Lad: Dear Client,

The West Africa Monetary Agency re-called your ($2

Billion) five
Billion U.S dollars from Credit Suisse Zurich, ............

(Good lord...he sent me his opening script AGAIN.)

-----

Carl: What's going on? I'm still waiting for the bank account information to send you the money.

-----

Lad: does it mean that it is only bank that you will send the money ,
why can,t you go and send the money through western union or money gram,

-----

Carl: I wrote this to you before, did you forget?

"Look, I don't think I can be more clear. Not only is moneygram used by scammers all over the world, but I don't have access to it here anyway."

This has not changed

-----

Lad: OK
thank is no problem and note that you have to go now and send the money now with this account information,
1.Account Name....Dossouyovo Virgile wisland (Now THAT is a name.)
2.Account Number...xxxxxxxxxxx
3.U B A BANK BENIN (U B B)
4.Amount to send..$500.00
Thank you very much for patronages in this transfer and note that your funds can betranser to you once i received the alert ,MR.
Joseph Ngen

(So much for my ATM card.)

-----

Carl: The last time I transferred money like this, I needed a SWIFT code. Do you have that?

-----

Lad: why are still waiting ,i told you this that there is nothing like swift code and other people from different continent are pay with this account without asking for and swift code but why your own is difference ,so kindly go now and send the money now with the account bank and send me the payment information now,
1.Account Name....Dossouyovo Virgile wisland
2.Account Number...xxxxxxxxxx
3.U B A BANK BENIN (U B B)
4.Amount to send..$500.00
Thank you very much for patronages in this transfer and note that your funds can betranser to you once i received the alert ,MR.
Joseph Ngen

-----

Lad: i don,t have a swift code and we are not use for it,
so go and send it and then send the payment slip,
thanks,

(These last two were sent 14 hours apart so we're definitely working with at least two lads and they haven't been comparing notes at all. ALL CAPS lad and short-odd-sentence lad, which may really be two. Fun.)

-----

Carl: Okay, thanks. I've just never been able to send money without a swift code. I'll get to the bank this morning

-----

Lad: WHAT IS GOING ON HAVE YOU SEND THE MONEY BECAUSE IT IS THE ONLY THING THAT DELAYING THE TRANSFER OF YOUR FUNDS NOW,
SO LET ME KNOW WHEN YOU SEND IT,
THANKS,

-----

Lad: WHAT IS GOING ON YOU TOLD ME TO GIVE YOU AN ACCOUNT AND I GAVE THE ACCOUNT TO YOU ,WHAT AGAIN IS HOLDING THE TRANSFER ,TELL MW WHAT IS THE DELAYING ,

-----

Carl: I got a message from the bank manager saying he stopped the payment because this was a scam. Why would he say that?

What's going on here? Are you trying to steal from an old man or is he wrong about this? This is all very confusing.

-----

Lad: Mr man don,t be faster than your shadow ,all what e are doing here is with guarantee so don,t be shit on your self ,look left and right you will know that you are not saying the truth ,that is capital lie so kindly go and send the money if you can ,while you can not then forget about it okay ,bye,

-----

Carl: How dare you use that kind of language with me? I'm beginning to wonder about this whole thing now.

How do I know this is all for real? What proof can you offer me? Surely you must understand that I have nothing that really tells me any of this is true.

----

And he moved on to the next. My favorite kind of bait:
- Kept him (them, actually) on the hook for weeks.
- Got my piggie.
- He (they) never knew that it was a bait, leaving them wide open to get pounded again.

Pity you couldn't keep him going, a few more gems like that would have been worth it!

I absolutely love your Carl character, whether it's a chop bait or straight bait, you have him down pat!

Lads have no concept of the numbers thay toss around.

I love the idea of lads sending 2 billion dolars via an ATM account.
My own bank allows no more than $300 to be taken out of an ATM per account per day. It's not as if they keep a hundred grand in each machine and then restock them every night.

So doing the math:
2 billion / 300 = 6.6 million days to withdraw the payment.

Doing anything else for 18,264 years?

If you started withdrawing money around the same time humans began building shelters you would still have more than another 5 thousand years of work ahead of you today.

I used to think the same thing but I read somewhere (it may have been on cracked.com but I wouldn't swear to it) that it is intentional. By throwing out crazy high numbers, the lads are trying to weed out all but the most gullible of magas. If you think about it, it makes sense -- it might be possible that you won $50K in an online lottery but if you really believe that a complete stranger is going to give you $2 billion, you'll believe anything. (Or, you're a baiter... Twisted Evil

)

Posted: Fri Sep 05, 2014 7:41 pm

^^^^ An article by Microsoft's Cormac Herley possibly - he suggested the same thing, that by sending an email that repels all but the most gullible, the scammer is increasing his chances of getting replies that will produce a payment as they can concentrate on those that are the most likely to believe the continuing excuses used for the promised funds not being transferred.
