I'd like to make it clear that I'm drawing heavily on themes from a bait by Angus McOatupp (view it here, its really funny! http://www.geocities.com/angusmcoatupp/Idi.html)

The scammer's text appear in red, mine are in blue. Comments are in bold. Pretty standard set-up, I guess.

For the record, The Exchange is the name of a crime ring in Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, and Nikolai Sokolov is a character in MGS3. They're both incredible games that I would recommend to anyone, eve people who aren't too into videogames.

A traditional first letter from the mugu:
ATTN: HONORABLE BENEFICIARY
FROM THE DESK OF: DR.PETER MIKE
OUR REF: CBN/CSF/0012/FGN/04.
Comment: Union Bank NIGERIA PLC
Victoria-Island, Lagos-Nigeria.
TELE;;; 234-1-7903732
ATTN: HONORABLE BENEFICIARY

I sincerely write to seek your co-operation and trust to enable my
colleagues and I carry out an urgent business opportunity in my department.
I work with the Union Bank NIGERIA PLC;currently I am the senior manager of
bills and exchange at the foreign remittance department of my bank. I was
the account officer to one LATE SUNNY ZHONG, The deal in details: A
foreigner, LATE SUNNY ZHONG was an oil merchant/contractor with the Federal
Government of Nigeria and resides here in Nigeria not until his untimely
death six year ago in ghastly plane crash.(LATE SUNNY ZHONG)who perished in
the plane crash ofOCTOBER 31, 1999 { with Egyptian airline 990} with other
passengers aboard as you can confirm it your self at this,,,,,,,you can vist
the website at
wbpage:http://www.bromike.com/departed/egypt.html.
Since the management got the information of his death we have been expecting
any of his relation or his next of kin to come up and claim his money.He had
a deposit of (US$18,500,000.00) EIGHTEEM MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND
UNITED STATES DOLLARS,here with the UNION BANK OF NIGERIA before his death
on OCTOBER 31, 1999. I am his accountant officer at the Union Bank, and till
now nobody has serviced this account or shown up for his money since after
his death till date.Below is his account information:

Union Bank NIGERIA PLC
ACCOUNT NUMBER: 2342765709/784768
ROUTING NUMBER: 2342657765
CODE: NIB/LILLACWONG/99/05
BENEFICIARY'S NAME: LATE SUNNY ZHONG
AMOUNT: (US$18,500,000.00) EIGHTEEM MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND UNITED
STATES DOLLARS

Unfortunately, From the day of his death till the time of this letter none
of his relation or friends has come up for the claims.The banking and
financial law of Union Bank NIGERIA PLC stipulates that if such fund
remained unclaimed after a period of (2)Two years, it will be transferred
into the bank treasury as unclaimed bill. On this discovery sir, I and two
other senior staffs now decided to do business with you and release the
money to you as the next of kin to LATE SUNNY ZHONG for safety and
subsequent disbursement.I will soon proceed for my retirement leave , and I
personally do not want this fund to be transferred into the bank treasury as
unclaimed bill. That is why I wanted the fund to be move out of the bank
before I proceed on my retirement from the banking services.The need for a
foreigner as next of kin in this project is occasioned by the fact that the
customer LATE SUNNY ZHONG was a foreigner and a Nigerian cannot stand as his
next of kin or heir.We have agreed that 30% of the Fund would be for you as
foreign partner; thereafter my colleague and I will visit your country for
disbursement according to percentages indicated.as soon as i got you reply i
will send to your the certificate of deposit. To enable the immediate
transfer of the fund into your nominated account,you will first apply to the
bank as the next of kin of the deceased, indicating your bank account number
and location where in the money will be remitted.Upon receipt of your
acknowledgement indicating your interest, I will send to you the text of the
application that you will send to the Union Bank NIGERIA PLC authority for
an approval to submit your claims.Send your reply through my direct and
Private email address:[email protected] Indicate the following:

1. Your Full Names,

2. Address Direct Fax and telephone numbers for effective communication that
this transaction needs.

3. Your Banking details, include your Bank Names, Address, Bank account
Number /swift code and bank routine number.

4) Your Full Profession, Age And Marital Status

Looking forward to urgently hearing from you.

Yours Faithfully,
DR PETER MIKE
SENIOR MANAGER OF BILLS AND EXCHANGE ,Union Bank NIGERIA PLC

My first reply is almost a complete rip-off of Angus', I hope he won't mind Embarassed

Dear sir,

My name is Nikolai Stephanovich Sokolov.

I represent a certain group of Russian businessmen operating in St. Petersburg.

I received your email and I knew immediately that you are a Nigerian advance fee fraud scammer. However, I like your style, and I have an offer you cannot refuse.

My operation needs partners around the globe, who are not afraid to work outside the law. I need somebody who is trustworthy, respectable, and intelligent, as well as ruthless, unmerciful, and fearless. I believe you may possess these qualities.

Since the Communist party fell from power in our country, control has fell to those who were prepared to stand up and claim it. Using that power, we have been able to infiltrate certain international aid organisations, and with the help of people like yourself we have been laundering billions of dollars worldwide, each year.

If you are interested in becoming an associate of ours, and earning more than the combined annual turnover of everybody you know, then reply as soon as possible.

I am offering you this chance with the greatest respect, and I expect that if you respond, you will show me the same respect, and not forget this chance we have presented to you.

Yours,

Nikolai Sokolov

DEAR NIKOLAI,

OF COURSE, YOU ARE 100% CORRECT.

PLS. YOU HAVE MY RESPECT.

I AM IN

RUN THE PROCESS DOWN FOR ME SO THAT I CAN ANALISE IT TO KNOW WHERE TO COME IN.

SEE YOU

PETER MIKE

I took some themes from Angus' bait here, too, but I added a lot more of my own content. Hopefully from now on I'll be able to put my own spin on how the bait proceeds.
Dear Mr. "Mike",

Thanks you for your promt reply to my email.

Allow me to give you a more detailed description of my business, and the activities you will be required to perform.

My business, as you may have guessed, involves itself in activities that are considered illegal and immoral. While those words may apply to us, we prefer the word "profitable". Of course, due to operating outside the law, my business has no formal name, though it is commonly referred to as simply "The Exchange". You are to use only this term when talking about the business.

The Exchange engages in operations including, though not limited to, blackmail, gun-running, kidnapping, drug dealing, assassination, smuggling, counterfeiting, and countless types of theft. If you choose to join us, you must be aware that the services expected from you (while not as potentially violent and risky was the ones just listed) won't exactly be what Jesus would do, if you understand.

You are already a criminal and a thief. By accepting my proposal and joining The Exchange, you will merely be taking your illegal activities to the next level. With this comes increased responsibility and pressure, as well as the oppurtunity to make exponentially more money than you are at present. To give you a rough estimate of just how much you will be making, foreign partners such as yourself receive 5% cut of any money that they bring in. This is a lot of money when compared to the magnitute of the jobs you will involved in. A typical worker in your position can easily make several million dollars in a 6 month period. On top of this, exceptionally good work on your part can lead to a substantial increase in the percent that is given to you.

You must also be aware than when you join The Exchange, you are making a commitment. You cannot just decide you have made enough money and "retire". Leaving The Exchange is difficult and often expensive. Remember this.

If you are still interested in joining, get back to me as soon as you receive this email. I would first like to know your real name. I understand that Peter Mike is only an alias for you, probably to sound more Western and trustworthy to your victims. Obviously, I often employ these tactics too. You are, of course, aware that Isaac Sukondik is not, as my email address suggests, my real name. Be aware that I am not a victim or "mugu", as people in your business sometimes refer to the people you scam, so there is no reason to use a fake name around me.

I will also require a fairly recent photograph of you. This must not be a forgery or a picture of somebody other than you. If it is, I find out sooner or later, and I will cease all communication with you, and you will miss out on this chance to make more money than you can imagine.

I will expecting a prompt reply, containing your real name and photograph in your next email, as well as an honest description of your background and talents.

Yours,

Nikolai Sokolov
