Ok he's buying it. FJB just got like 10 emails from Ed. He's attached the fake WU slip - - the fake newspaper articles - etc. I'm laughing - can you imagine. I bet this guy has PRINTED COPIES of these things and carries them in his bags and tells everyone he knows about his ordeal. He's probably the village entertainment now - - got a boost up from being the village idiot!

So he also told me that he had some information that he thought I needed to know - about the s e v en dr ag ons being caught! So he forwarded me the email from the guy.

Also - INTERESTING - I need to check the headers - because only ED has this email for FJB - and FJB just won the lottery while ed was online - and inbetween times that ed's emails were coming to FJB. So it's hilarious that Ed sends like 3 emails - then FJB gets a lottery win - and ed sends a few more emails. And Ed is the ONLY one who has this email..

HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM Is he trying to scam FJB now?

The jury is going out and will be back later...

He's gotta raise the money for traveling somehow! Wink

Somehow, it just keeps getting better and better. Surely there has to be a ceiling.

I think 3d has nothing between the ears and the top of his brain is exposed to the air. There is no ceiling with this guy.

He's been sending me scans of various things I already knew about, like westie slips and newspaper cuttings, too. He's fitted into this world we invented so well, I doubt he'll ever adjust to the real one.

^^ It's like you've created the matrix, except even more evil. Laughing

One day Ed will be a legend in the scammer community - - "Hey guys - don't become an Ed now."

People will wonder if Ed really was a real person or a legend...

Update on Ed!!!!!!!!!!

Get out the popcorn. Ed has a very ENTERTAINING STORY to tell - and damn - this couldn't be better if WE had planned it. It looks like the whole forces of earth are against this village idiot! Laughing

Quote:

Dear Father John Black,
Iam sorry it took me long to get back to you.I travelled to Warri a city in the Southern part of Nigeria.My trip wasn't a good one.I regret making this trip.I would have listened to Amy's advise.Last year,I miracously survived an accident involving a truck load of P.M.S(Premium Motor spirit) I was escorting to its dispatching station in the eastern part of
Nigeria.The accident left scores of people dead.Since,She advised me to stop the business,because of the risk involved in it.She was particularly concerned about me
losing my life to road inferno or Dare devil Militants who are a constant menance in the oil rich southern part of Nigeria.Since the December last year,I stopped the business,so that I can make out more time for her and my arrangements for trip to the United States.
Last week,I was tempted into the business again since I needed money to process my visas.But this time around I was caught in a cross fire between Militants and the
Nigerian Army.The gun duel lasted up to 2hrs.It was a very horrible experience.I saw bullets and hand grenade tearing people to threads.The truck load of P.M.S I was to escort was was blown to pieces.Iam lucky to be alive.Iam alive today because of God's grace.God have delivered me from the claws of death on many occasion.Sometimes,When I look back.I begin to ask myself some question.Maybe,there must be something special God
want to use me for.I saw people die and I wasn't able to save not even a soul,because I was afraid and have to scamper for saftey.I pray that God will give the families of the people that lost their in the inferno the fortitude to bear the loss.It is really painful.Please,I beg you Idon't want you to reveal this to Amy.She will really be upset with me.
According to the report,I gathered the militants was on a retaliatory attack on the Nigerian oil facilities in the Oil Rich Niger Delta Region.I also learnt that one of their commander was accosted and arrested in Angola by the interpol last year.He was later extradited to Nigeria
for prosecution.But unfortunately,he died in custody.The militants have promised to unleash more mayhem in retaliatory the lost of their commander.

As regards,on how I got the news of the F.B.I sting operation in Moscow.I got the news from a friend that works with the F.B.I.I wouldn't want to mention the name of the agent.It is highly confidential.He has been of great assistance to me all through Amy's abduction and
rescue.Iam aware that an operation of this nature was going on.But as you know,it was not to be revealed to anyone,because it was a highly classified operation.Although,I was kept in the dark through the operation.It all started when I was Singapore.But I wasn't able to prove that Amy was a citizen of the United States,because as at then I really didn't know anything
about her family background.However,when Amy gave me your contact information in Nigeria.I was able to provide them with some information on Amy.Since then I have been
working hand to hand with them.My job was to provide them with information as regard to Usman and the of which I tried the best I can to do my bidding.I keep
Usman busy.I kept feeding the F.B.I with every of my correspondence with Usman.Frankily speaking,I didn't know you were also working hand to hand with the F.B.I.If you remember during Amy's rescue operation.I kept on asking you to make a report to the F.B.I.Iam very happy that Usman and his group have finally been nailed.To God be the glory.At this point,I want you to know Iam really grateful to you.I wonder how I and Amy would survived
this without you.May the good lord continue to bless you.Usman should be made to pay for all the attrocities he committed against mankind.Amy is a living witness.She saw them killing a woman in Chad for rituals.Usman and his gangs also murdered Doug and almost killed George.Amy saw them killing Doug.He should be made pay for kidnapping Amy. But,I wouldn't her to be involved in their prosecution.It is risky.
Anyway,when will Amy be through with her Cleansing?.How long do have to wait to talk to her?.Iam really missing her.I find it hard to sleep these days.Please,I beg you.Ask her to call me.I need to talk to her.I've been trying to call her phone line,but she doesn't want to pick my call.I also tried calling yesterday night,but all to no avail.It is really fustrating.When will my cleansing start?..I hope mine will not last this long?.I need to know how Amy is faring.I await your positive response.
Thanks and God Bless.
Edward Smith.

He told me that story about the gunfight between the rebels and the Nigerian army a long time ago, and now he's saying it happened again last week. Confused

Ed does hail from the Niger Delta though, and Port Harcourt's a pretty rough place. Kidnappings of foreigners working for the multinational oil outfits happen regularly.

The 'FBI guy' is a friend of the 'lawyer'.

Posted: Sat Feb 23, 2008 5:14 pm

This story is twice, nay, THRICE as entertaining from Ed's distorted view of his own life! Laughing

Posted: Sat Feb 23, 2008 11:57 pm

Like @Psyche I call shenanigans. He told me something very similar before he went to Singapore. I checked the Nigerian papers and couldn't find a single reference to the "rebel uprising" he was talking about.

Posted: Sun Feb 24, 2008 2:34 am

LOL

Maybe Ed can't tell the difference between the voices in his head and the voices in his emails now.

LOL

I think we could TELL Ed he's been baited for the past 4 years and he'd NOT believe that! (but I don't plan to tell him)

He possibly took some inspiration from this accident and mixed it with his older story.

Well, I'm trying to get Ed to travel.....

Quote:

Dear Father John Black,
Thanks for your response.Amy and Doug have told me alot about Uncle Ozzi.Uncle Ozzi have been really kind ton Amy and I.He has been really helpful.He tried to use his contacts in Singapore to smuggle me out to Lithuania.But somehow it never worked out.The Seven Dragons screwed everything up.It is a pity,I have not really had the opportunity to thank him.
Iam really happy that is now history.But I advise that we should still be on guard.There may still be some of them out there.
Frankily speaking,Iam really missing Amy.Is there a way I can talk to her?.I feel so empty inside me.I miss her alot.It will do me alot of good,if I will be granted the permission to call her or If she can call me.Anyway,as regards the package,it is too risky to allow her travel to South Africa alone.But on the otherhand,I see it as perfect point of unification for me and Amy,because even I go to South Africa on my own to retrieve the package the custom will still require Amy presence before releasing the package of the contents.Can you arrange our marriage in South Africa?.Is it possible?.Is possible for us to make a special security arrangement for her?.Although,I require a visa to enter South Africa.But,it is easy to get an entry visa to South Africa from Nigeria.But there are two things bothering me as regard this. First is the security risk involved.I don't want to anything bad to happen to her.Secondly, is my finance.How do I finance this?.Anyway,I will try and make some enquires and consultation tommorrow as regards this.I may have to discuss it with my lawyer.
Meanwhile,I want to assist me in making enquries as regards this.Lets put our heads together and figure out a way to work out this plan.It will be a dream come true,if it works out.I look forward to your response.
Thanks and God Bless.
Edward Smith.

So I shoot this back....enjoy my wording...lol I tell Ed that I know what 419 scams are and that he is having to suffer due to them. LOL It's awesome when you can tell the truth...

Quote:

Dear Ed,
Amy doesn't have to go to South Africa if you can go there to get the package. They require that only one of you go.

As far as financing the trip, I am not sure what to tell you. The church cannot help you, as we do not give financial aid to people who are not members of the church. Plus you have committed a sin and have not gone through proper cleansing. This will mean that the committee would not fund such a trip for you. You cannot even begin the cleansing period until Amy is done. The church tradition is that when any type of sexual relationship has taken place before marriage, there will be a three month cleansing period to make sure the female is not pregnant. You will be able to have instructions and begin the cleansing period at the end of Amy's cleansing period. The woman must go first. This means that it will be a while before the church could help you cleanse and then to get funding from us, you would have to become a member. This would then mean that the time frame for picking up the package will expire before you can get to South Africa.

Is there a way you can get the money? Maybe borrow the money and offer someone 10% extra when you get back? I'm not sure how much it will cost to get to South Africa, but Amy did leave $10,000 in cash (US) in the package. This is why the box has been held in customs. The people are wondering why a woman in the United States is sending such expensive things to a man in Nigeria. Amy has talked to them on the phone and told them that you are her fiance, and they have explained to her that Nigeria is known for 419 scams and that there probably is not a man named Anyaeji Edward Smith in Nigeria. They said that you probably gave a fake address and that the package is going to an internet cafe where people will use the electronics that she has sent to commit further crimes. This is why they said that either she has to come pick up the package or you have to come with your ID to prove that you are a real person.

I'm sorry this is happening, Ed, but some people in your country have done some really bad things. Now people such as yourself are having to suffer at the hands of those who have the power to make your life miserable. It's very unfortunate that some citizens of your country have given your country such a bad name. Now you have to suffer due to this. I hope that when you and Amy get married, you can get a United States citizenship. Then you will be an American and people like these customs officials in South Africa won't be making your life miserable.

I tried contacting customs on Amy's behalf, but they told me that information regarding this package cannot be released to anyone except Amy Judd or you. So, I have not been able to help out with this. My best advice would be to make a business deal with someone. Ask the person to sponsor your trip and offer to pay 10% extra once you get the package.

As for the , they are actually being held in Singapore right now and are being treated horribly. The officials have been torturing them to get information about any other people. It seems that all of the 7 dragons are caught. They have committed a lot of crimes in the Singapore area, and a mean group of officials actually kidnapped the children of Usman and were threatening to kill them in front of him. I was unaware that this happened at the time, or I would have done anything possible to stop it. Usman's wife was raped by the Singapore police, and Usman had to watch her scream. Unfortunately, the officials who did these horrible things to his family in front of him are not able to be punished in their country. I do not agree with how they treated Usman's family. I can assure you, though, that Usman and his followers have all been captured.

Remain Blessed,
Father John Black

I've been active in the background, too. I'm hoping Ed chooses Johannesbug in a way, because I have a plan involving a South African next-of-kin lad. Wink

In fact, if anyone has any surplus South African lads, we can arrange quite a party.

Posted: Sun Mar 02, 2008 5:26 pm

I have two South African lads, both in Jo'burg and both too lazy to travel. Both also are pretty poor scammers as they get upset with me for not paying them, but come back begging again after a few months. I'm sure they'd love to meet Ed.

Posted: Sun Mar 02, 2008 5:57 pm

Are they next-of-kin lads? In order to play it out, I'll need to get my lawyer character to contact some ZA lads, telling them he's a 419er too, who has a maga called who will be coming to Johannesburg to collect his inheritance. I'll tell them I can't get to Johannesburg myself, and the associate I had down there has let me down. I'll offer to cut them in on the cash Ed will be bringing with him, if they'll meet him at Johannesburg airport. That way, they can play the bait out perfectly, with names, details of inheritance, everything. Even phone calls will be good.

Posted: Sun Mar 02, 2008 7:20 pm

Oh yeah. This would be awesome....the s e v e n dra_gons may be caught but no one knew they had relatives (or rivals??) in SA - - the SA w i l d Hogs or SA safari tigers....or some other name...lol They can be out to chop B_ell_o's dollar and now have the opportunity with him and his miscreants in jail.

Now to find some SA lads and set up a lad convention. LMAO

We can tell him that there's a 4th Anniversary Safari Festival going on and he'll be staying at the 4th Anniversary Safari Resort.

Ahhhhh - - Ed..... I can see it now. We need to get dumbass tattooed across his forehead soon.

Posted: Sun Mar 02, 2008 8:27 pm

What a great goal that would be, a tattooed forehead. WOW! Laughing

Thanks for taking the time to keep us all updated Eliza!

Look - Ed can tell the truth sometimes:

Quote:

Dear ,
Thanks for the mail.It is really a Shame.Look at what these
Fraudsters have done to the good image of Nigeria.419 has now become a stigma tagged to every Nigerian.It is really a pity.The problem is that the Nigerian Government is not taking the fight against Fraud,Corruption,Extortion,and Emblezzlement seriously.It is a charade.I wonder how the fight will when most of our so called politicians are big time 419er.Do you know that some of our Legislators and state governors are fraudsters?.Recently,a serving Senator in Nigeria representing Niger State cried out in anger.He said most of his colleagues in the Senate and the federal House are Fraudsters.He said he arrested most of them when he was the head of the state security intelligence before he became a senator.He was even ready to mentioned names.But he was advised to soft pedal on the issue,so as to safeguard the image of the National Assembly.Sometime,I regret being a Nigerian.What else do you expect from a society,where criminals are glorified like demi-gods instead of a good name or Character.Where people worship Money.Where the Justice system is a total failure.where the Police Force is cankerworm of corruption.What do you expect from a society like this?.Nigeria is a modern day soddom and Gommoriah that is why it is difficult get visa to Europe or America from Nigeria.
In Singapore I was stigmatised by the Singaporean people,because I was a Nigerian.When I reported that my fiancee (Amy) have been kidnapped.They never believed me.They thought it was a cooked up story.I was so embarassed.It is took the intervention of the FBI Agent attached to the American Embassy in Malaysia for them to act on my report.I thank God I have been vindicated.Usman and the which they claim doesn't exist is in their custody.Iam not happy with what they are doing to wife and Children.Are they among the ?.
To be honest with you.Internet cafes in Nigeria are the nest of these Fraudsters that is why I finding it very difficult to access my mail in public internet cafe.The best way to avoid falling victim to these fraudsters is to stop responding to unsolicited mails.Never respond to Juicy business proposals.If people stop responding to there prospals or mails.It will going long way in discouraging them.Secondly,the Nigerian Government should set up a Central Computerised Data Storage Centre for all its citizens so as to check impersonation and multiple identification. These will go a long way in fishing out these fraudsters.Cybercafe operators/ owners must meet up to some security criteria i.e your I.P address must be registered with confirmed and verified Owner's name and Address before they could be allowed to run a Cybercafe.
As regards the package,It is important you send me the shippment receipt and the contact phone number of the South African Customs.It will be alot of help to me.I needs them.I've already discussed with my lawyer friend.He is not happy about it.I may decide to take a legal action against them or I may decided to travel down to South Africa that is If I raise money on time.Honestly,I wish I could find someone that will borrow me the money for the trip with 10 percent.It is not going to be easy. Iam still weighing the possibilities.How much time do we have left?.Why did Amy have to leave such an amount of inside the package?.It is very risky?.If that package had gotten to Nigeria.It would have been stolen.Why didn't she send the package through Courier services like UPS, DHL and TNT?.If I eventually succeed in travelling to South Africa.I may not coming back to Nigeria immediately.I may decide to stay for awhile.After my cleansing will it be possible for me and Amy to wed in South Africa?.Can you it be arranged?.
However,how Amy faring?..Is she back from her vacation?.Send my love to her.Tell her I miss her alot.I look forward to your urgent response.
Thanks and God Bless.
Edward Smith.

Nah, one claims to be a refugee and the other started out by saying his mama needed a liver transplant, then wanted money for rent and school and now just resorts to begging. I'm sure we can work them in somehow. Both think I'm Alicia Keys.

Ah, good old reliable and forgetful Ed.... Playing the role of a reformer. There's no angle he won't use to work to his advantage. His holier-than-thou account of those nasty scammers in the net cafes that keep him from accessing his emails prompted me to dig back and find his first format sent to me.

Turn on the Wayback Machine, it was on May 25, 2005:

Dear friend,
I am Mr Edward Smith the personal driver to Mr Robert Brown the director of Highbrons construction company contracted under the ministry of mines and power for the completion of the last phase of the multi billion dollars Ajaouta steel project here in Nigeria.
I have been his chauffer for the past twelve years and before his departure six months ago to Italy for the procurement of some of the industrial machineries for the Ajaokuta project completion we the wrkers has not been paid which made the workers union to go on strike.
Fortunately for us and unfortunately for Mr Brown the personel manager phoned him and intimated him of the strike.
Mr Brown on hearing of the strike had to rush down to Nigeria so as to have us paid and have the wank continued.
I was despatched to go and pick him up at the airport in Abuja upon his arrival and after picking him from the airport we headed for Ajaokuta in Minna Niger state where the site is.
It was unfortunate that when we arrived Suleja he saw some women selling fruits and opted to buy some so i had to stop.
Unmanly of him i would have gone to buy the fruits but he decided to do it by himself.
After buying the fruits and was coming back to the car he looked right and left there was no car though there was a bend and immediately he entered the toad to cross over a car came out from that very bend and that was the end of my master because he was rushed to the hospital though it was too late to save his life.
The workers on hearing of the death of Mr Brown started demonstration which resulted in farting away company properties.
As the driver i had not option than to force open the briefcase which is still inside the car and discovered a huge amount of monkey infact at first i got confused.
At the moment i cannot invest the find in Nigeria because that will create avenue for the Nigerian government to suspect me of foul play.
I want you to just indicate your interest to assist me get the find transfered to any European country for investment and i will give to you every document of coverage.
It may interest you to know that i never made mention of this monkey to anyone and neither did i stop coming to work.
I am still coming to work and the work is in progress now because the mother company in Italy sent another director to come dsown and continue from where Mr Brown stopped.
I was first accused of keeping his briefcase because they knew that he left Italy with a briefcase but since no one can prove that i am with the briefcase i was discharged and aquitted for lack of evidence Wink

.
I will stop here untill i receive your response.
Thanks and God bless.
Mr Edward Smith.

Maybe he has amnesia as well as a capsaicin-damaged pecker...
