This is a real quickie I tried just for a lark. It didn't take long for the lad to figure I was more trouble than I was worth, but maybe someone will be inspired by this to find a more tolerant lad. This one, oddly enough, was using a cable modem in Amsterdam, even though he claimed to be in Ghana.

Dear Mr.Hacker,

Thanks for your email,am trying to understand what you meant in the mail that you sent but i can not get it,but if what i taught is what you meant then i can guess that you are trying to say that you don't agree with the percentage that i we offer you.That's exactly the opposite of what I said. Oh, well.

I would appreciate it if you can make a make a suggestion as to the percentage that you will want then i can discuss it with my brother and our family attorney,hence you are required to send to me your personal information so that our family attorney can draft and agreements with us.I appreciate all your effort for far i believe this is the binging of many good thing to come.

I will need to know information about you like your nationality,address,full name,phone and fax number.

Thanks for your co-operation

Best regards
Jeanny Kaho

I am baiting him too as manpo. He's no fun and I think he's about to flake on me.

Another tool for h4X0r translation : the dialectizer at http://www.rinkworks.com/dialect/. it knows other interresting dialects such as moron or redneck lingo Smile

its also good for a laugh. it can dialectize plain text, or act as a translation proxy to browse any site.

Thanks Martin. Great tool!

very interesting! i would never have thought of doing somthing like this.

I couldn't get over his name - manpo. To my feeble mind it could easily have been misread as manpoo! Maybe you should start referring to him as that if he ever gets back to you.

Then you could gradually progress through all sorts of terms used to identify excreta, and use them as pet names for your mugu.

L33t is what these guys get for trying to scam teenagers Razz

This is great stuff, really plays off their limited grasp of English. It's probably going to be hard to find one who'll put up with this for very long though. Maybe if you mentioned a 6-digit amount of money in your first reply?

(I hope my response here is not considered necro'ing since this thread is still on the first page with responses quite a bit of time apart)

I never would have thought of using l33t h4c|<3R type speak in a bait, and while it was short, very creative IMO. My ONLY concern in mind on that one would be the fact we never want to educate the lads, plus too many l337 baits, and I think they'd catch on that the person they're talking to is a w4$t1ng the1r t1m3. Nonetheless, A+ for creativity Very Happy
