I've been doing an Inheritance bait on this lad for 3 months; I guess he got a little tired of my demands for documents, photos, bank acct number, etc., so he sent me this, along with an attached picture:

Quote:

The attached picture was taken in my office where i was serving verification documents to the Whitemen who stormed my office in company of the Black Gentleman (on white African attire). the black man claimed to be your representative and the supervisory Engineer that supervised and certified your money execution that was shifted from the previous Paying Institute to the (OUR COMPANY) because of their inability to have paid it at the agreed time.

They said that you were dead and before your death, you appointed them as the next of kin to your fund presently under our custody. These two whitemen and the black gentleman quickly applied that your fund should be presented to them at the spot.

All sounds pretty reasonable, doesn't it?
The bank (in London) won't give me an account number for me to pay the "transfer fee" (all banks use WU for international financial transactions), and total strangers are aware of this impasse, and happen to show up in Lagos with all the right documents, hours after my latest email; and of course there was a photographer standing by to record the "office storming ".

The photo was a blurred shot of four men "in a business meeting"; they all seemed rather calm- but hey- maybe office stormings happen all the time in Lagos.....

I love the bit about "before your death, you appointed them..." -kinda like a shlockey Western ("He willed us all his money, right before we shot him")
This lad gets a gold star for creativity, and my gratitude for opening up so many new avenues of delay and frustration (for him).

Life is fun,

I hope you are going to quote some Mark Twain "The report of my death is an exaggeration" or merely brush your death off as daily event.

My condolences to you, can please tell us what happens after death? Laughing

I think the lad needs to invest in an OUIJA board now. He must use it by the computer so that you can send emails to him while you are dead. Without the OUIJA board to call up the correct spirit, the emails could be from any dead person!

Confuse the lad!

Have all kinds of dead people emailing him to give their family members messages. LOL

Walk towards the light!

The story reminds me of an episode of "The Mod Squad".

I thought the Lads had a monopoly on communicating from the grave.

We need to start a Baiter's Version of Terry Pratchett's Fresh Start Club from Discworld (http://wiki.lspace.org/wiki/Fresh_Start_Club) against LaBrea's Lad and mine from this one (http://forum.419eater.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=120355).

I think the lad has realized he's made a "grave mistake" Wink

Quote:

Your e-mail is received with so much surprise thinking that you were dead as claimed by those impostors.... How cruel and deperate could people be.

I have to admit, I'd be even more suprised to receive an email from a dead person than I would that someone would send one to a person they thought was dead to begin with.... Confused

Now I'm thinking at some point I'll have to kill off my character (again), just as he's getting ready to send money..........but then maybe resurrect him again.........did someone mention zombies??
