I´ve spend hours and hours reading guides and hilarious scam-bait stories.
I really enjoyed Stupid Stunt Kevin. But I couldn´t help myself feeling sorry for Stupid Kevin when he got that massive tattoo on his chest. But the easter bunny costume made me ROFL.

I´m a neewbee. The only experience I have so far is dealing with fake romantic profiles. I´ve got one on the hook right now - but under my real id. The scammer also have a lot of my personal photos. I´m afraid those photos will be exploited to lure in others. HMMM. Nothing to do about that now.

Thanks to all who has written guides: Otter and especially TheLoneHaranguer. You write so well. Your chapter about differentiating your characters writing skills was well written and entertaining.

What I miss on the Forum is a single post about characters. A post where we describe our characters: Their live, interest, how they write, traits, fears, quirks etc.

I`m in the process of setting up a Dutch sexual terapeut as my first character. He´s travelling world wide helping women with orgasm issues. He´s sloppy, naive and not good with computers.

His IFP/IPP/controller (don´t remember the abriviation). Is his accountant, who´s eager to backstab him. She controls the money and hates when he´s fucking all the clients.

I´m considering getting a mentor. But I´m not sure how much time I can spend doing this. And I really don´t want to waste my mentors time.

Thanks for an excellent web site

Hello Dugan and welcome here!

For your own safety, I suggest you immediately drop this guy from the hook. Remember - we are dealing with criminals here - just like you don't tell thieves what's your name and where do you live, you do not give internet scammers your real identity. You would be surprised what you can find with just email address. As far as pictures are concerned, you are right - everything you provide the lad can be reused on real victims. What has been done cannot be undone, but be careful in the future. Wink

If you want to feel safer, you can set up Google alerts on your name, ID, address or any detail you have shared with the scammer - you can start here
https://www.google.com/alerts
If you enter multi-word phrase, like Name and Last name, make sure to include it in quotes - such as
"Name LastName"
"[email protected]"
etc. - that way when anything shows up on Google including those phrases, you will be alerted.

I'd say, it is in general not that relevant to share. It might be relevant for you as a baiter, to know your characters and be consistent, but I think sharing this with others is not exactly the content that would attract some big attention. Especially when others have characters of their own. Smile

Baiting is not time-consuming activity if you don't want it to be. With just 1 email per day (as described in Otterfan's guides) you are still baiting, but writing 1 email per day to a lad surely doesn't take too much time Smile

Of course it is entirely up to you how much time you decide to devote to this.

However, if you want to start baiting, I definitely recommend getting a mentor. In that case, you can tell your mentor how much free time you have and you can discuss the course of mentoring. We're all people. Mentors have their real lives and other duties too. So no need to worry too much about needing to spend extreme amounts of time. Smile

Oooppp. I made a mistake. I didn´t wanted to create a new post in the forum. I just wanted to introduce myself in the new members section. Sorry.

Thanks for your reply and your good advice. You seem very dedicated.

I´ll go talk with a mentor
Very Happy

Welcome aboard, Dugan, and thank you for your kind words -- it's always nice to be told you're awesome. Cool

To echo what Mortal said: (i) Stop baiting your love lad with your personal info. If he seems like he could be fun, just respond to his initial email from a fake email addy and start over again. He won't have any idea he didn't email you at your fake addy. (ii) Get a mentor.

And as far as characters go, don't just tell us about him/her -- show us him/her in action. Once you get a couple of weeks into a bait, go ahead and publish what you've done so far. Not only is it a great way to show us your baiting style, it's also the easiest way to get feedback, input, and suggestions.

Have fun!
