Just got a cry for help from a particularly unprofessional (aren't they all?) lad. Apparently his client died in a plane wreck. Can anyone guess what kind of plane they were in?
It starts with a "C"...
Cessna you say? Nope...
IT WAS A CONCORD! 
1) A Concord hasn't flown since November '03.
2) The news article he sent me is dated for July 31, 2000.
I guess this firm likes to take their sweet time with clients.  |

Yeah, that accident happened on the 25th of July 2000.
Lads like to bend time to suit them. Just like the little Japanese guy in Heroes. 
You'd think wouldn't you, that they'd pick a less memorable crash, and a less memorable aircraft? Ah well, let them keep doing it, hopefully he'll make sod all money from scamming (as he clearly sucks at it) and become something honest. A Barrister maybe. Or an Engineer. |

I made sure to sound VERY convinced in my reply...
Off topic... I closed my reply with "Waiting in precipitation". I wonder if he will pick up on the pun? |

They use the Concord one a lot. No idea why that one in particular. Probably because of what the Concord signified.
They also like to exploit:
Tsunamis
Hurricanes
Genocide
Famine
Global Warming
Regional wars
Amongst other things. |

It's always fun to sign off in new and interesting ways isn't it?
Just this morning, my character Pat Bateman wrote to his new boss . Now normally he signs off "Yours Sincerely". Seeing as Pat is a dab hand with a fire axe however (and this will be worked into the bait later on), today he signed off with "Yours severely".
It's a sign of things to come for poor Rick. It'll be "You're severed" next.
Has he noticed? Has he buggery. |

It sounds good, but I gotta have more cowbell!
Sorry... couldn't resist. I once asked a lad about that very thing. All I got was "I don't know anything about that ok I am just working for my client" and back to the script.
Plane crashes, auto accidents, tidal waves, etc. Doesn't anybody just get sick and die anymore? Oh wait, yes they develop cancer and send e-mails from their death-bed. Silly me... |

^^^ Well I guess who are we to argue?
Average Joe Bloggs sits at home, sees on TV that global warming is bad and is causing rising sea levels that will destroy the earth, gets an email from some bloke who says that he was a victim of such rising sea levels etc and Joe thinks to himself 'Oh yeah, I heard about that stuff, sounds bad!'. |

My characters frequently visit "Western Onion" for money transfers. I haven't had a lad call me on it once. |

You should've responded back with something like:
Oh my gosh, I too lost someone on that flight. My dear depart grandmother was killed in that crash on her way to her funeral. |

I'm forever asking my lads why they want me to go to a Union, what does our dealing have to do with employment relations after all? |

What is native language of the Nigerian/African scammers? I think the language barrier is why they don't pick up any of these mistakes... and laziness... |
