Inspired by this post ( http://forum.419eater.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=866370#866370 ) I decided to bait a lad speaking only in the third person, along the lines of "Buffalo Bill" from Silence of the Lambs: "It rubs the lotion on its skin." A silly gimmick, but one that took very little effort on my part and seemingly caused a wee bit of confusion on the part of my lad. I selected a Chinese scammer in the hopes that its English would not be so good.

Here's what went down. I'm baiting as "Q" here.

Dear Friend,

Thank you for your reply to my first email. I needed to be very sure of you before I disclose my identity for confidenciality purpose.
I could not give you my true details in my first contact because I feel it will
be huge surprise for you to receive such email from a serving minister of the
Peoples's Republic of China.Now that you have replied the correspondence with interest I will give you more information about myself and the business.

My name is Mou Xinsheng (Minister of General Administration of Customs of the Peoples Republic of China).

Forgive me if you see my business proposal as shameful and not honourable
because of my governmental status.But please excuse me and understand that this is the situation I am and must find a credible partner in the western wolrd.

In my years of government service as Narcotics Control Commission and General Adminstration of Customs, I have received kick backs from smugglers and business people seeking favours from me and as a public officer my bank accounts are monitored hence I diverted the funds Thirty million united states dollars for safe keeping abroad.

I want you to receive the money which has been in deposit since the last Two
years.When the money is in your bank account,I want to use Sixty Percent of the money for charity to help orphanage Children suffering (You will spare head this project and my name will not be mentioned).You will receive Twenty Percent as your commission and I will take the remaining Twenty Percent as my share which I intend to settle with in your country.

Please consider this proposal and reply to me soon.It will certainly do you no
good to report me to my government authorities or devuldge this information to
anybody because doing so will only destroy my person and my career.

Mou Xinsheng.

Its demands for information are annoying and presumptuous. Its refusal to disclose details of the transaction are suspicious and anger-provoking.

It has gone silent, like one who is dead.

No response from here. The lad either got creeped out or figured there was no money involved. I might try to refine this a bit in the future. As it was, it was just a lark and I welcome others to try this modality and report any improved results.

Try mailing him again. I was baiting the same guy, and his addy was killed by someone. His email was the GREETING FROM MOU one, a while back in the surplus forum.

Anyway, the third person thing looks absolutely great. I�ll have try one myself!

I just sent another poke. No high hopes, though.
