Dan has redone his 'Blagging Scum' picture, see 'Pictures'.

By a strange coincidence, David Beckham and Roy have both won a new Mercedes Lotto, agent one derrek walters. Roy wasn't fooled:

Maenwhile, in 'pictures', Yeawhatever photoshopped Dans pic onto a Hollywood billboard, so Dan thinks that he is famous in LA. Sadly David Beckham has no idea what this western onion thing is....

Poor Dan. David Beckham is getting hassled for his advertising money, but has heard from Roy, who asked if he had won both of Dan's fake lotteries yet? (He has)

David is furious and will have nothing more to do with Dan. Meanwhile Dan is worrying about everyday life with a vintage Ast0n Martin. Also the wicked president doesnt want him to have it.

Quote:

He's upset with Roy for tipping david Beckham off that if he won any lotteries, they were from dan.

Need your urgent response.

Dan

Anyway, SP, Roy was far to tight to pay for the door to door service, he only paid for port to port.

send him this, from your agent on Tin Can Island, we'll see if he's tempted despite the cost and problems.

Quote:

Dan,

I forgive you, I dont know if David will, he feels its my fault for giving you his email.

I'm away on holiday for a week with Hayley, I hope you have got that car by I come back, I'm sick of you whining about it. Just go and get the bloody thing, its arrived. I've no doubt that if you don't get it, some scumbag will steal it.

Still, not my problem, as they say in Weatherfield.

Roy

I'm away for a week, anyone fancy knocking up a newspaper srticle about a Mr Bello being seen driving around Lagos in Wayne Rooney's priceless old ast0n m4rtin?

EDIT:

Quote:

Hello Dad,
The car is in the port Shocked

and i told them everything about how you sent me the car and they told me to bring some funds about twenty three thousand naira Shocked

and i dont know where to get that kind of fund from please Dad and my work i just newly started last week the month is not yet done so Dad i'm really happy and i appreciate what you have been doing for me is it true that the Uk visas are now cheap Dad
And please Dad when will the premiership start again and please Dad who is that germany guy that manchester united is buying and are they really going to change some old players like paul scholes and Ryan Giggs and two more others because i saw it on the paper Dad

I'm really Happy Dad won't you let me to be in the next premiership Game Dad I'm very angry that i could'nt come to UK to join them to complete this premiership Game.
Pls tell Mr Alex that i would like to come to manchester so i'll be the only Africa player there and i believe i'll be carrying the africa best player Dad.
From your Son
Dan
I'm very happy

Sounds like Nigerian Customs are only too happy to get dan on a safari and rob him blind at the same time. Nice that they confirmed the arrival of the 4ston though. Razz

Quote:

I just saw this email as well, I'm glad you've cheered up. Owen Hargreaves is an england player, we bought him from Bayern Munich, I went over to sign him. Giggs has a lot of games in him yet, but he has given up playing for walesHargreaves will replace his role though. we may buy Brazilian midfielder Anderson, 19, and Portuguese winger Nani, 20, in a deal that could cost about �30m. (Stolen off the BBC website)

I wouldn't know about visas being cheap, are they for sale?

I'll tell Sir Alex to keep a place in the dressing room for you.

A short email from Dan:

Quote:

Please if i come there i dont want to have any problem hope i will just come and drive my car home
From,
Dan

Nope, no problem at all, I replied:

Quote:

Dear Sir/Madam,

I can confirm that your Aston Martin car, with tracking number xxxxxxxxxxxx, is awaiting collection by you from Tin Can Island, there are no problems with this shipment, it is a simple case of you collecting the car and driving it back to your destination.

All you will need to collect the car, is a security code number, that number issued to you is "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx", you are the only person who knows that number, it is 100% secure, your car cannot be released without the security number, when you collect the car, give that number to the shipping officer at the dockside, he will then give you the car keys and paperwork, you will have to sign and date the docket to show the car has been passed in to your possession.

Yours Sincerely,

Cxxxxx Mxxxxx.

^^^^^ I don't have enough room in my sig for that Sad

, but it's nice he thinks that way, although he might change his mind if he goes to collect Laughing

, just sent him a reply confirming that his car is awaiting collecting and not for delivery to his address:

Quote:

Dear Sir/Madam,

Thank you for your email.

I understand what you have said, the problem is, the sender only paid for delivery to the docks at Tin Can Island, so you will need to collect your car from there, this car is not for delivery to your home address, your address is only listed on the tracking page as a legal reference, not home delivery.

Let me again confirm that all you will need to collect the car, is a security code number, the number issued to you is "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx", you are the only person who knows that number, it is 100% secure, please bring that number with you when you make the collection, as the car will not be released unless you have the number with you, so print this email off for reference.

Yours Sincerely,

Cxxxxx Mxxxxx.

Dan has sent a reply saying he will collect the car, but as it's Dan, don't be surprised if he comes out with some poxy excuse or asks again for it to be delivered to his address:

His car dealer is completely clueless. Tell him that there are of course special regulations for vintage automobiles and that your company declared it as such. The AM certainly isn't a rusting "old modern" wreck that falls apart at the first look but a prized antique wanted by rich collectors all around the world.

Dan has mailed me, except the writing is nothing like Dan's, he is usually an illiterate numpty, this email sounds too good for him, I wont bother replying yet:

Quote:

Subject: ATTENTION!!!

To whom it may concern.

I am having a very big problem trying to locate the car ) your company claimed to have shipped to Tin Can Island, Lagos, Nigeria.

Please, I want to know the Container Number, the Shipping Company and the address of the company here in Nigeria. In fact, I need you to seed to my email an attach copy of the bill of landing. What I have here looks like a junk with unspecific information’s.

I need the following information’s to be able to get to this car:

Cargo Company in Nigeria
Container Numbers
address of shipping company here in Nigeria
Name and Number of the Ship that brought the car into Nigeria

Please it will really be kind of you if this situation is taken care of in no distant time. As the case is right now I will be force to pay demurrage fees for 9days.

God bless you, while I look forward to your urgent and honest favorable response.

Regards,

Dan.

Ok, I have replied to, Dan, or whoever it was that emailed me as, Dan:

Quote:

Dear Sir/Madam,

Thank you for your email.

Sir, as per my previous email, we do not give out the full shipment information, that is for security reasons in the event of a high value shipment being sent, as is the case with you, the car is classed a an classic car and a high value item, hence the reason why we gave you a security code number, which was, "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx", this is done purely to prevent the fraudulent collection of goods sent to Nigeria by people other than the true receiver, as you are probably aware, Nigeria has a high rate of fraud, and we have to take extra security precautions as a result of that, it is the same for any country on our list of fraud hot spots.

All you require to collect your car is the security code number, only the holder of that security code can collect the car, it will not be released to anyone without it.

Yours Sincerely,

Cxxxxx Mxxxxx.

Dan has sent me another email today:

Quote:

Dear sir,
Please i'm waiting for your fast response please i need the details and the description of the company location in Tin Can Island
Regards,
Dan

I replied to his last email:

Quote:

Dear Sir/Madam,

Thank you for your email.

To answer your questions, yes, all you need for the collection is the security code number of "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx", when you arrive at the docks in Tin Can island, you need to go to the dock masters office and give them the security code number, they will release your car to you.

We do not have offices in Nigeria, we are simply freight forwarders, if the shipment was paid to be delivered to your home, we would have used a local courier company for the last leg of the journey from the port to your address, but as you know, in this case, shipping was only paid for the car to go to Tin Can island, which is now for collection by you, from the docks in Tin Can island.

We have also received an email from the person who sent you the car, they have sent us a photo of you for identification purposes, and they request that the car can only be released to the person in the photo, I attach the photo for your perusal.

It goes without saying that, if someone other than you tries to collect the car, it will not be released to them, only the person in the photo can collect it.

Yours Sincerely,

Cxxxxx Mxxxxx.

Of course, I forgot to attach the phot of him in his pyjamas Rolling Eyes

, so I had to send him another email with it:

Quote:

Dear Sir/Madam,

Please find attached to this email, the photo that was sent to us by the sender of the car, only the person in the photo is allowed to collect the car, if any other person, other than the person in the photo tries to collect the car, it will be refused.

The dock master at Tin Can island has also been sent the photo, he is under strict instructions not to release the car to anyone else but you.

Yours Sincerely,

Cxxxxx Mxxxxx.

Roy is supposed to be away travelling, so I can ignore him for now.

If this lad actually travels than Roy deserves some sort of gold plated safari helmet. This is, without a doubt, the laziest lad in existence. Very Happy

I'm really hoping he goes, but I'm not going to hold my breath.

Hello I'm New here! Joined: 03 Jun 2007 Posts: 4

I would tell him that the car can only be held for a few more day's, then it will start to incur charges, and ultimately will be returned to the shipper.
There must be some way to get this guy off his ass.
Very Happy

btw, you prob don't know me as I haven't really posted yet, but I have been following this closely with great delight. lol
