A couple of things I can ask which wont ruin it if that idiot happens to stumble on this site.

1) This lad is pestering me for a phone number, but at the same time is trying to pass himself off as an American. How is he going to pull this off over the phone? An American contact maybe?

2) Would anyone be up for taking a phone call as myself? I've set up a fax number, but I work nights so the last thing I want to do is mess with this guy on the phone. Someone who could record it and upload it to the net would make this bait all the sweeter.

The other help I require has nothing to do with the phone calls though, so even if you dont want to help with the phone, PM me as I have a couple more questions!

Thanks

The lad by the way, has sent me a classic passport mock up of that actor from NYPD blue (at least i think it is him).

Yep, sent me the same fake. Rolling Eyes

I am feeling like this guy needs to be slapped. Sending a picture of a famous AMERICAN actor to an AMERICAN, who by the way hardly looks like any kind of a military man, let alone a young buck sergeant. (Not really a regulation haircut or mustache, if you know what I mean.)

On the other hand, if I slap him will that just teach him not to use such an obvious fake in the future? Does that fall into the "teaching scammers better tricks" category?

I am feeling like this guy may just be playing with us. Has he asked anyone for money yet?

Withholding my slap for now...

Love the pic of the trunk box, don't you all? If I had a nickel for every time I've seen that stupid flowery lid . . .

I don't necessarily remember seeing the hands in all of them, though, so I suppose whoever took the pics must have taken a series of them. Why do you suppose they chose that crappy Grandma's-living-room-wallpaper pattern instead of something neutral??

Well, I didn't want to get off-topic, so good luck to those of you who are baiting this guy!

@schmoebob: IMHO you should NOT call him on the passport pic. I think that would fall into the educating-the-scammers category. You might even want to put in a subtle reference to how trustworthy he looks. Reinforce the stupid stuff and discourage the realistic things.

@pug: the flowery wallpaper must be the special anti-money-detecting foil

We had the security company come to Iraq to carry the trunk box after we have packaged the money inside and sealed the box with a special kind of foil. After passing the trunk box on a scan they confirmed that truely it contains just ordinary paper.

I need to get me some of that for my new beanie! The mind control folks are starting to catch on to the shiny silvery kind... (and the flowers are much more fashionable!)

He hasnt asked me for any money yet, but he is pestering me about contacting the security company to get my lovely flower decor box delivered! I'm stalling but I guess the money asking will come soon.

OK, so this lad is trying to cheer me up because I am getting depressed again and thinking of going off my meds. In his last message he told me he had a lot of humor and I told him to tell me a joke. Here is what he sent me:

Quote:

An old man and woman were married for years even though they hated each other. When they had a confrontation, screams and yelling could be heard deep into the night. A constant statement was heard by the neighbors who feared the man the most. "When I die I will dig my way up and out of the grave to come back and haunt you for the rest of your life!"
They believed he practiced black magic and was responsible for missing cats and dogs, and strange sounds at all hours. He was feared and enjoyed the respect it garnished.
He died abruptly under strange circumstances and the funeral had a closed casket. After the burial, the wife went straight to the local bar and began to party as if there was no tomorrow. The gaiety of her actions were becoming extreme while her neighbors approached in a group to ask these questions: Are you not afraid? Concerned? Worried? that this man who practiced black magic and stated when he died he would dig his way up and out of the grave to come back and haunt you for the rest of your life?

The wife put down her drink and said..."let the old bastard dig. I had him buried upside down."

A lad with a sense of humor! I wonder if I can get any more jokes out of him?

He won't ask for money the security company will. As soon as you cantact them they will have a nice bill for you. If you are really lucky they won't have charged interest Smile

That is when you real fun will begin.

This bait has taken an interesting turn. I got bored with the back and forth about my depression and his fake war stories, so I decided to go off my meds and have a genuine bipolar manic episode. When he sent me a photo of him and his buddies that was the size of a postage stamp I went postal and called him a thief and a liar. I then sent a message to the security company (which oddly enough has the same exact Nigerian IP address as the lad...) exposing him and his scheme.

He wrote back shortly cursing me and begging me to write the security company and deny that I sent the message. Almost simultaneously, I got a message from the contact at the sec co from a new e-mail address. Apparently, our contact at the sec co had "fortunately" intercepted my e-mail, and was able to prevent anyone else from reading it. He then offered to fly the truck box to me personally, if I would send him the money ASAP and then we could split it.

I will get all of the messages together in a while to share. I think I underestimated the effectiveness of an unmedicated, mentally imbalanced slap! Twisted Evil

uhh... you mean kind of like the big red lettering across the image that says "FAKE"?

I am a noob, so if my method of marking it fake is not sufficient, please let me know, but I ensured that I marked it fake before uploading it to photobucket.

Posted: Thu Jan 18, 2007 9:40 pm

hey sorry about that...think I should stop drinking now Wink

Your method is sufficient...while my method of sight does not seem too sufficient today... Laughing

Posted: Thu Jan 18, 2007 9:42 pm

No problem. I am comfortable with my noobness, and will gladly accept any and all advice. Very Happy

Posted: Thu Jan 18, 2007 9:56 pm

Yup, here's why we don't send anything to lads that they could turn around and use. Upon seeing that passport, I was pretty sure it was made by a baiter...it has too high a quality to have been made by a lad.

Just thought I'd take a moment and point out the object lesson sitting here in this thread...

Yes, Nurse Nasty, you can have your jackboots back.

huh, I sent a message to this guy a few days ago (demanding 50%), and got nothing.

But today he replyed, offering 30%. Of course he was slapped.

He must be catching up on old emails.

Posted: Fri Jan 19, 2007 11:08 pm

This guy must not mind getting slapped. I slapped him pretty good, and now it is like we are best buds again. Immediately after getting slapped:

Quote:

I have got a word from Dr pete sampson of the britania security, everything is over we have been BURSTED the British government will confiscate the money OH we are in a deep shit here

YOU FUCKED ME UP

WHY DID YOU FUCK ME UP ??????

WHY??

Today, after an explanation that I was off my meds and not thinking straight:

Quote:

I have a joke for you today:

There's this old priest who got sick of all the people in his parish
who kept confessing to adultery. One Sunday, in the pulpit, he said,
"If I hear one more person confess to adultery, I'll quit!"

Well, everyone liked him, so they came up with a code word. Someone
who had committed adultery would say they had "fallen."

This seemed to satisfy the old priest and things went well, until the
priest died at a ripe old age. About a week after the new priest
arrived, he visited the mayor of the town and seemed very concerned.

The priest said, "You have to do something about the sidewalks in
town. When people come into the confessional, they keep talking about
having fallen."

The mayor started to laugh, realizing that no one had told the new
priest about the code word.

Before the mayor could explain, the priest shook an accusing finger at
the mayor and said, "I don't know what you're laughing about, your
wife fell three times this week."

I will catch you later my friend, please do not forget to be praying for me.

Your Friend,

Dennis.

More jokes to follow I hope...

At the moment I've put him on hold. He is getting "worried" about me becaus he hasnt heard from me in a few days. I'm going to make up some story whilst I've been away, see if I can mess with him any longer before I contact the "company"

Ok so I FINALLY got back to him, but when I did I slapped him for being impatient and told him there was no way that my fake lad was a terrorist. I then get this (from the same person or at least the same cafe).

Hello,

My name is Mrs.Julene Ellefson I am a dying woman who have decided to donate
what I have to you/ church. I am 63 years old and I was diagnosed
forcancer for
about 9 years ago, immediately after the death of my husband, who has left me
everything he worked for.

I have been touched by God to donate from what I have inherited from my late
husband to the you for the good work of God,rather than allow my relatives to
use my husband hard earned funds ungodly.

Please pray,that the good Lord forgive me my sins.I have asked God to forgive
me and beleive he has because He is a merciful God. I will be going in for an
operation in less than one hour.

I decided to WILL/donate the sum of $8,700,000.00(Eight million seven hundred
thousand dollars) to you for the good work of the lord, and also to help the
motherless and less privilege and also for the assistance of thewidows.At the
moment I cannot take any telephone calls right now due to the fact that my
relatives are around me and my health status.

I have adjusted my WILL and my lawyer is aware I have changed my will you and
he will arrange the transfer of the funds from my account to you.I
wish you all
the best and may the good Lord bless you abundantly, and please use the funds
well and always extend the good work to others.

Contact my lawyer with this specified email: ([email protected])
and tell him that I have WILLED ($8,700,000.00) to you by quoting my personal
reference number Law/chamber/je/nd/WILL/TT453276542/Jrrr/086. And I have also
notified him that I am WILLING that amount to you for a specific and
good work.

I know I dont know you but I have been directed to do this.Thanks and
God bless.

NB: I will appreciate your utmost confidentiality in this matter until
the task
is accomplished as I don't want anything that will Jeopardize my last
wish. And
Also I will be contacting with you by email as I don't want my relation or
anybody to know because they are always around me.

Regards,
Julene Ellefson

I guess he thinks he is going to lose me on this one. Anyone want to help create a Satanist church for the donation with me?

i traced those IPs, it`s an israeli satellite service i`m getting, which means there`s a very very slim chance of that mail coming from your lad, send your Lad a mail saying someone else has mailed you with a better offer, see what his reaction is. set up a different account to bait the other one

Posted: Thu Jan 25, 2007 8:29 am

I got a diferent angle on the saddam scam today, interestingly the lad is either clever and spoofing his mail or its a snafu, in the small leader it appears to come from "[email protected]" but in detailed header the IP (195.117.114.133) resolves to a server in Poland (@wsi.edu.pl)

Feel free to bait the scumbag, Im to busy!
