As I've mentioned before, I have a certain baiter character which some lads believe is a famous hip hop star (for reasons entirely unknown to me Wink

). When they try their games on me, I scold them. Often they will drop their facade and go straight to flattery and begging:

Quote:

Isn't the answer obvious? Tell him you're actually a scammer as well - ask him to share his email contacts to prove to you that he trusts you, then send them all an email saying "the guy you're dealing with is a 419 scammer".

@Yrubraj -- that's a fine idea, but it would be a short-lived exercise. All it would take is one victim to forward my email which warned them and he would shut me down and then he'd be smarter going forward. That kind of warning activity is counter-productive in the long run.

No, it's better to use their fawning adulation against them and get them thoroughly discouraged and humiliated. Wink

Shouldn't that be Dr Ken Kaniff and nor Dr Ken Kofi Twisted Evil

Seems to me a heartfelt confession like that is a cry for help. Maybe you can help him mend his ways. A detailed inventory of his sins might be a good start.

I can't wait to find out. Knowing your nasty devious mind, I'm sure the lad won't enjoy it.

Get him to make some small jewellery in the shape of the church symbol and have his nipples pierced so he can wear the badge with pride. Twisted Evil

Wait, does he mean 'hussler' as in the actual meaning or is he trying to use 'ghetto speak' because he thinks you're a Hip Hop star?

Get him arse tatooed.

'Hip' on the hip and then 'H on one arse cheek and 'P' on the other. The 'O' is thrown in for free. Twisted Evil

You could tell him that you need a new backing group, and if they are good enough you could arrange a green card and permanent work.
Or better still, say that break dancing is making a big comeback. Laughing

Proving his love for you by taking a picture of himself dressed as one of your idols growing up. Can't you see a lad sported out like Flavor Flav with a big clock around his neck? Yeeeeah Boyeeeee! Or maybe Rev Run from Run DMC with his Adidas gear? Something where he's going to have to work and purchase items to prove his love for you!

Well, I'd enjoy it anyway...

Compose a rap for him and have him record it for you as an "audition". If you like, you can use this one I noodled back in the day...

In the shelter of a mountain sits a calculator countin' down
A mock alert to simulate a humanoid eterminatin'
Thermo-nukin' armageddon, Georgie get yer bombers headin'
Over to the enemy lan'
Ya got ta nuke 'em in the bud
Before they mobilize the missile command
So ya activate yer military, neutralize the adversary
Barbeque a billion, give or take a coupla million
Either way it doesn't matter if the population scatters
Cuz the bodies only get in the way
Ya got ta show 'em what ya got
Ta put the anchor on the action today

The only revision is that "Ronnie" was prez when I wrote it, not "Georgie"... Wink

Heheh. Nice ideas, all. I'm going to see where the lad wants to go. Right now I have my record producer contacting him to see if he wants to display his talent. I also have my artist's charitable foundation ready to contact him to see if he wants to apply for a donation...

I can see a nice tatoo opportunity with your lad.

Great... he has to prove it with a mark on his body to prove his devotion.

Couldn't you open a new account and then email them from that? Explain to the victim exactly why the person they're dealing with is a 419 scammer, send them links to examples of people who've been scammed of money, and tell him in no uncertain terms NOT to inform the lad of what you've told them. I guess it would potentially spoil our fun, but hopefully save a few victims. In saying that I definitely don't think you should do that immediately, perhaps win his trust over for a while, get introduced to a few associates, and when you do throw a spanner in the works you may end up being able to make a bigger impact.

You should ask him if he and his friends would like to make a rap posse called "Thug Naija Bois". Then you can get them signed onto Scam Patroller's very own Cr!minal R3c0rds Laughing

You could tell him you are planning a tour of Africa and need someone to help set up stuff for your up coming arrival.

Warning victims counter-productive? To Whom? You?

I've got a almost completely written application brochure for an ' type competition. You could pose as one of the judges for that. PM me if you want a copy.

If he believes that you are some famous star, then you have the perfect excuse not to give out personal details such as phone numbers. Maybe it's time to consider an African leg of your next world tour, for which you need an organiser on the ground booking stadiums, hotels, transport and hookers for your entourage.

Reasonably common African name I think. There used to be a Zimbabwean cricketer called Blessing Mahwire I think.

I like your ideas.

I actually did have a lad a while ago look into booking, transportation and hotels for me. He got me quotes on mini-buses and looked into various clubs for me to appear in -- he was trying to work out a kick-back scheme with the club owners in exchange for my appearance. But in the end, he couldn't come through with what I needed and I told him that if he wasn't a go-to guy, then I wouldn't have any need for him....
