Hey all...

Newbe here. Call me "THE PUNKER"

Here in the Colonies, we have a TV show called "Punked". Some of you may know this broadcast.

Basically, It's a show that puts the real bag on somebody for our viewing pleasure.

So, the moniker I've chosen is kind of appropriate for the fun I'm about to embark on.

Briefly,
I have recentently experianced what could have been financial devistation. I am a writer by hobby (please bear with me 'cause I can't spell for beans...) and during email contact with whom I know now is a 419 "lad" I noticed the change in tone and timbre of my contact.
My S/O is a legal beagle and upon her prompting, I became suspicious.

What started out as an innocent posting on "craigslist" with items for sale, turned into a crash course in the world of internet scams.

I have made several international transactions as of late, and became quite comfortable in dealing with world-wide customers. It was a new kind of contact, but not entirely out of the norm. But as the corrispondence continued, I became warey of the fact that this contact "danced' around the specific conditions that I had put upon this sale.
Soon, the "lad" had become impatient and so laid all his cards upon table so to speak.

So I had him, the rest is history.

The funny part of this is, not two hours later, After I had broken contact with the first "buyer" another lad sent an email with nearly the same content...

Once I get the "gist" of this site, I will prepare the story and upload it in it's entirety. It will most likely be a story you all may have heard before, but hey, Why not...

I took the time the time the other day and read our benefactors accounting of his most recent bait. I must say, "brilliant"! Now I am lusting for more!

It is very true that once burned, it is hard not to think about much else. But as is habit for me, I write. It is my medicine. It is my therapy. But so that it may not go to waste, I have desided put my energies into the adventure that is at the offing.
So, With the help and mentorship that is appears to abundant here, I would like to count myself amoung your number and do battle for the greater good.

Thank you Mr. "Timbers" for creating this resourse. I would also like to thank The Sacramento Valley High Tech Crimes Unit for putting me on to
you. You have a fan base in the law enforcement community to be sure.

O.K. Enough of that crap. Where do I start? I have an unaswered email in my In Box and I would dearly like to make this lads life... shall we say, difficult?

Hi Punker, and welcome to the board. Off the top of my head...

1.) Watch out for folks who want you to send $$$ via Western Union or MoneyGram. Both systems are abused by scammers.
2.) You may want to check out the hand mentor thread in the baiting helps and hints forum...the mentors are quite handy. Smile

Kiss your spare time goodbye.

Hi there Punker,

I came across Eater the same way... scammers trying to buy stuff from my website!

Sadly I now spend more time baiting and perusing Eater than I do on my website, so be warned... no-one's kidding when they say 'kiss goodbye to your free time' Wink

Welcome Punker.

Freetime? what the h3ll is that? never heard of it! Laughing

Welcome to Eater.

BAIT SAFE
READ THE STICKIES (at the top of each forum section)
Get in touch with a mentor (see the sticky in the main forum)
Read through the published stories, you will find a lot of help there.
Use the 'search' facility to avoid asking questions that have been answered to death.

DO NOT FEED the Mods! Wink

We have enough trouble keeping them in line as it is.

Hi Punker,

Welcome aboard.

Undoubtedly your Lad has given you a cel-phone # to call. Don't waste your money, tell him you tried and no success.

So have him call you in Sacto at these #s--
916-440-0029 (home)
916-440-0015 (office)
916-440-0005 (brothel where you can be reached on weekends)

Every time he tries he will hear "we're sorry, all circuits busy, try later" etc. Sounds like a free call but isn't!! One Lad called me 30 times, I wish I could have seen the phone bill! Tell him a grizzly bear knocked down a phone pole in the neighborhood.

Bait safe and have fun. Above all else, lose no sleep on any of it now that you're onto them. Wasting the time and cash of mugus is what we are all about.
