@YW 99 more fake church lads just heard of . the least I could do if I'm shamelessly copying your format. This is my ASEM of the week. (Still working on the rhino though), same letter but from a Mr Halitosis.

I did consider changing the bank and question, but if ETB is threatening the police to every lad who turns up asking 'Who is number one?' then who am I to interfere! Perhaps I could ask ETB if they'd stick up a rhino picture with 'WANTED' on it (next to the one of Professor Chuck Soludo).'

99? Not bad. Over the weekend, I sent out about 400 more. I kept the ETB in the letter. I have also spammed about 300 lads looking for a rhino-broker, no luck yet. Crying or Very sad

Man, I have some very angry lads. I couldn't resist copying the format. I sent it to about 500 lads, but I used a different bank in Abuja. Is there any real way to find out if they have been bombarded by mugus?

Other than having an insider at the bank, no. That's why I do not have several dozen pith helmets in my signature. However, IM_Dumm had an excellent suggestion. He said,

Quote:

You should always make sure they tell you the name of the person they spoke with at the bank, their title, and where their desk is located. Tell them you need this information so you can make sure the lad gets his money the next time. If they do not have that information, you should question whether or not they really went and get them on the road!

Also, you are going to get a few of these guys pretending to be from the orphanage asking you to stop the payment and send it to someone else via Western Union. There are several options here but a nice one is to agree to their request and then send them all of the WU security forms to fill out.

Another option to shut them up and get them moving is ask them why they have not already picked up the money since their orphanage is right down the street from the bank. You can tell them that you called the bank and told them that someone from the orphanage is coming to get the money. You have also instructed the bank that personal identification is not necessary since you are not sure who is coming from the orphanage. This one has worked quite well for me.

Jumping on this modality myself. I sent a variation of it to about 30 lads. I changed the bank to Lagos, but most of my lads in in Senegal, Ivory Coast, Ghana or South Africa Twisted Evil

.

Truly great stuff. In my variation, I represent a church giving out the dough.

I have been thinking about how to get these thieving bastards to the bank in person, and confirming it. I don't know if this was a 5am eureka(!) moment or is too unbelievable. I leave it for wiser, more experienced heads to ponder.

Prepare a document similar to a bearer bond which entitles the holder to the donation and monthly payments. Then cut it in half, but make a jagged edge, leaving key words such as ".....orial Bank" part of the Bank's address, "....sand dollars" etc visible in one half which is then scanned.

Send this with the ASEM and include a paragraph along the lines of:

"You will find attached one half of a scanned document. The other half is held by the Treasury Clerk at the Bank. Please present your half of the document to the clerk. Provided the two halfs of the document match precisely, this will confirm you are the rightful recipient of the money. It is important you present this document in person.
Due to earlier fraud we have introduced a security measure. The scanned document contains code. The code is not harmful to your computer and will not therefore be detected by virus scanners. However if the document is forwarded to another email address or rescanned the printed document will resize itself and the documents will not match. You will not therefore be able to claim the money."

Have you ever purchased a ticket to a movie online? It's basically a coupon that you print at home with a unique bar code that gets scanned at the the theatre. I periodically try this method as well. I call it the "electronic cashiers check". I have scaled down the image as to not cause blow out.

I guess one of the recipients thought I was a fellow scammer, and was disappointed in me for not reaching my full potential. I told him I am just begining and asked for some pointers.

I was starting to wonder if some of these lads are not starting to get multiple ASEMs of this same format from different baiters. I usually send out 400-600 per week. If there are 4 or 5 other baiters doing the same thing, we are bound to begin overlapping at some point, wouldn't you think? I know that there are many thousands of lads out there, but it just seems inevitable.

Posted: Wed Mar 08, 2006 4:10 pm

I think you are right. Especially since there are only so many places that we get our lads email addresses from. I am sure that this modality has caught on like wildfire. I sent the email out to 100 lads and I did not get ONE reply. I figured that the group that I pulled the addresses from probably had received the same email.

Posted: Wed Mar 08, 2006 4:19 pm

My response rate has also dropped dramatically in the last week. Man, I never though that it was possible to contact EVERY lad out there.

I'm sure the whole big list from 419baiter has been hit.

I've been a heavy user of http://mailer.happyhost.biz/ How about you others?

Posted: Wed Mar 08, 2006 5:10 pm

Me too YW, but it hasn't been updated for a while, I get a high bounce rate. Also those lads are getting a lot of ASEM's these days.

Dunno why I didnt start doing this sooner, but I am now keeping all the lads who appear in my catcher account (from an over enthusiastic guestbook seeding) on a word document, separated by commas for mass mailing, that way (a) I am baiting lads who have tried to scam me, making it personal (b) They are recent so not too many bounce.

Duncan Rustin the phone lad did me a big favour, after really losing it with me (see bottom line of siggy) he signed that character's account up up for a lot of spam, which is 90% 419's. I get as many fresh lads from that now than
mt catcher account - Cheers Duncan!

Was thinking about this earlier and I added to this modality by sending another note a couple of minutes laters asking them to disregard my earlier note to them as it was not meant for them but for somebody else etc:, I think that this give's creedence to the first ASEM Smile

Posted: Wed Mar 08, 2006 5:51 pm

I think it would be a smart Idea for us at the eater to start up our own happyhost website. We could probably get thousands of fresh new lad emails in a week's time. I think that the lads on happy host are probably getting familiar/suspicious of the baiter formats they receive.

Posted: Wed Mar 08, 2006 5:59 pm

Could be, but I am still getting about a 5% (down from about 25% the first time I did this) response rate, more than enough to keep me busy, even with the many people doing something similar to this.

People,

what do you think about following projects:

a) get more than two mugus meet at the same remote location, based on promise of cash payment

b) organize another race to abuja, to a certain hotel address where a visiting charity official will hold a conference and subsequently will disburse cash to kickstart some projects

Posted: Thu Mar 09, 2006 12:22 am

A shedload of 'money' at the same Bank/WU, at the same time, does (a), and is a lot less work than (b).

Let them do the work.

So I went a little overboard on this one and sent out a lot of these emails. Now when I try to log onto Gmail I get that server error. I was wondering if maybe someone complained and had me shut out. Is this possible?

Posted: Thu Mar 09, 2006 3:53 am

Yes. How many did you send and in what amount of time?

Posted: Thu Mar 09, 2006 11:53 am

I had Gmail dip out on me for a while yesterday, it said there were server problems. Would you beleive it, there IS a Mr Halitosis out there, I just had an email from him!

Then, make sure you tell the lad the the since you worked something out with the bank, the lad does not need to bring and kind of personal identification.

@YW,

I had to borrow your modality a bit. I cribbed together a fake moneygram, and plastered it to about 20 lads who'se headers resolved to Lagos.

In a nutshell, it looks to be a mis-sent email to Brother Timothy, for $7500 for a new roof and food for his church.

Ready for pickup.

In Gusau........

Don't think I'll get any biters, but ya never know.

I just "accidentally" sent this to about 200 lads	View next topic View previous topic
