Not a super long one, just Lagos to Abuja. About 700 miles. Maybe a little less...

Original IP: Lagos
New IP: Abuja

He and I have been dealing with each other since about mid December. He has been to the Western Union office about 15 times. In his own words:

Quote:

i went there so many times i cant count

Well, we were having such problems, I suggested he just go to the WU office with an ID. However, since it was an ASEM he had to assume a name that I wanted. He had to go and pay to get a license made. Now, normally I wouldn't be happy with that. But, since it was going to cost him money, I figured I would go for it. And, since he had been to the WU office so many times, I thought him using a fake ID might get me an arrest. It did not. The fake is pretty decent.

Again, this is all because of Scam Patroller's Courier service. Anyway, he is there now. I am still waiting to move the goods because I need more information on him. I told him just to get a one way ticket, as is standard. But, we will be moving the goods a little farther away here shortly.

Glad to be of assistance again, JoJo, let me know when you want his shipment moved again Twisted Evil

Nice work! What are you gonna do with all those safari helmets?

Posted: Wed Mar 14, 2007 6:07 pm

I am not worthy! Can't wait to get some safari helmets... I'm working on one!

Grow them and make them multiply! I want to get as many mugus moving as I can! Some of my favorite lad moments have come when in the midst of a safari.

Nice work JoJo! Laughing

Geez, those helmets are just PILING up- instead of a pyramid you could have the Statue of Liberty in your sig line Laughing

Great work, both of you, Jojo and SP. Erm, Jojo, how about a triathlon next? If anybody can pull it off, it must be you Laughing

Posted: Wed Mar 14, 2007 8:14 pm

Triathalon eh? Question

Posted: Wed Mar 14, 2007 8:19 pm

Yeah, thought that would be an appropriate challenge for you. No way in hell I could ever get a lad to do so, but I have faith in all things called Jojo. If you can pull that one off, shiny orange name on me Very Happy

Nice one Jojo... Laughing

What is the criteria for a safari? Does one have to leave ones country or is there a certain milage involved? Please elaborate.

Thanks,

Grimey

I think it qualifies if the Lad crosses a national border and/or travels over 200 miles. There's also a scoring system somewhere.

For space reasons in your signature, jojo, you should put in for a 'lad travel agent' emoticon, with the current number in the middle. Very Happy

While you're at it, get Kevin Will Tony to have one tattooed on, too...

Okay....just imagine this in handwriting with big RSOT and a signature:

I, Persephone, will buy you, JoJoBean, an orange username if you, JojoBean, can get the lad of your choice to fullfill the requirements of a 419Eater Triathlon:
lad swimming (NO BOATS!!! Lads spend so much time in internet cafes, they can use the physical exercise)
Lad on bicycle (The lad can ask Agi for a bicycle <-- anybody curious can PM Agi about that one.)
Lad on foot (since this one is obviously way too easy for all things called JoJoBean, we need a requirement for this one: at least 10 k on foot - lads are lazy and getting 10 ks out of them is hard enough in my opinion)

Of course, evidence needs to be presented to the jury of our peers: the peeps of 419eater.

Signed,

Persephone (and the mods can kick me later for signing my post)

If only there were such a beast! My siggy is getting quite full and it needs some modification. If there were a nice travel agent icon, such as a super big safari hat, that would be awesome, but me thinks there isn't.

Got a great update from his best friend!

Quote:

Good day Sir,
well he really did travel there,and he travelled by road transport,what he took was a one way ticket for road transportation,i am in Lagos here,but are u the bigger boss?We are all praying morning and night for him to have a safe journey and also to hear from him.
Sir,let me tell you this,before he travelled he was acting strangely and would hardly talk to anyone,the only day he talked to me,he said that things are not going smoothly as expected and said that's all.The other day i asked him for some money to solve some financial problems he just yelled at me.
The day he travelled we all prayed that he'd be safe.i saw him off to the bus that took him.No body is happy here,everyone is just weighed down,
I hope all is well with him.
God Bless you Sir

Jojo - I am sure you could arrange a scenic sidetrip to one of the many hot tourist destinations along the way, thus breaking the 700 mile barrier. . .

I am still waiting to hear back from him. Once I do, I will move the package further away.
