Some excerpts from one of my lads' latest email to me:

Quote:

...may almighty God always be with you in all your future endeavors. By the grace of God I am 51 years old with 4 children and I am a member of the whole human family. I am child of God....by the special grace of God almighty, the creator of living and non-living things....

Quote:

In life with God, everything happens for a reason. We may not know the reason at the time. We keep God in our hearts and close to we at all times, we will soon know the reason. I am a God Fearing Person, in saying this I am saying that I understand right from wrong. It is wrong for us to treat any person less than we want to be treated ourselves. We are to put that person ahead of ourselves. I do not walk around with the Bible in my hand and preaching the word of God. I feel that one person does not have to belong to a Church, as our church is where we choose it to be. I respect God and his wishes. I want you to understand me and who I am; it was God that brought the two of us together....

Quote:

Almighty God will lead us thought successfully, may God Bless you and keep you and your family.

Lotsa God references there, right?

...and his email address contains the number 666. Smooth move, there. Rolling Eyes

Hopefully, that's just the thing a potential victim might see and figure out something's not right.

Edited to add: I told him my character had been scammed before (so hopefully he'll see I'm willing to pay up and he'll be willing to do more to get that money Twisted Evil

) and he had this to say:

Quote:

...I sympathize with the loss of your money. Maybe God want You to meet few wrong people before you can finally meet the right one so that you will know how to be grateful, I also believed that I was directed by the spirit of Almighty God to you.

Motherfucker.

Hmm, sounds like his last reply has him salivating at the idea of having a sucker on the hook. Hope you enjoy dragging him over the coals in search of his money! Very Happy

Lads love God and church references, they feel it makes them more believable and legitimate... I am a church-baiter and use the same tactic in reverse on lads Twisted Evil

This particular lad sounds great!!! Just keep trust-building him and don't let the God references get ya down, nail his ass for it down the track with some humiliating task.

Happy baitin'

Enjoy this lad. They love using the God references. Play him right and he will end up in church asking big G why he has been foresaken Laughing

I love those religious lads. I slap them with bible quotes and give them subtle hints that what they do as a scammer is wrong. Somehow they don't understand what i mean.

Care to share him thrylos7, I love religious lads. Shoot me a PM if you are feeling generous.

Anyone ever tried baiting one of these religious lads with a satanist character? Twisted Evil

Curious to see how they'd react, lol

@ technomancer

Now THAT'S not a bad idea!

How about a devotee of the Late Aleister Crowley? You could be John Whiteside Parsons, known to his friend as Jack ( a REAL aleister Crowley devotee btw). Or you could be his friend L Ron Hubbard (or at least use his photo. I do for my male baits)

Just a thought

I've turned opening script muslims into christians, and vice-versa just by praising the other deity in my response. The lads don't react at all, as long as they think they are getting paid.

There's someone here who baits as a follower of odin, which doesn't seem to bother the lads. I don't imagine a satanist would give them much trouble.

Lads act religious in their scripts because they feel it will appeal to religious victims. Also, I suspect religious people make easier marks for them. After all, religious people are already used to believing in things that can't be seen. If "faith" works for invisible deities, it might work just as well for invisible trunk boxes full of money.

Ah yeah, I've seen those ones. Some of the funniest I've read Very Happy

Might try experimenting with amusing made-up religions when I get a bit better at baiting.
Or maybe even pretend to be a follower of one of the existing made-up religions on here. (Although I'm wary of inadvertently ruining someone else's modality, so might just make up my own)

Posted: Tue Jan 05, 2010 8:37 pm

^Not only does the Odin faith (actually Asatruar) not spook the Lads, my Eliza/Cammy persona got two "converts" to sign pledges of devotion to Odin, and there was also one Lad who seems to have been in a Nigerian Odin cult and got in touch with my Priest of Odin persona.

If anyone wants to use the Asatru modality, drop me a line and we can sort out details.

I hope this doesn't count as a necro (apologies if it does) but I just remembered this little exchange that a friend of mine had when he started baiting:

My friend's response to the lad's format:

Quote:

Dear Rita,

I don't worship God... but I do worship Satan. Is that alright?

The lad's response:

Quote:

Dearest in Satan,

Calvary greetings to you in the name of our Satan. I received
your letter with gratitude to Satan, and I am impressed with your reply. I
will want you to reassure me that this fund will be used according to the
desire of my late husband as soon as it is transferred to you.

My Dearest in Satan, As i told you in my previous letter that it was
through the divine direction of the holy spirit of Satan that i choosed you
to handle this fund after a week fasting and praying which I underwent for
the holy spirit of Satan to direct me to the right person who can handle
this fund with the fear of Satan, although i saw a lot of names and after
praying with these names, i was finally lead to your contact by the holy
spirit of Satan which i can not disobey. With Satan all things are possible.

I want you to understand that this is Benevolence in fulfillment of the
desire and decision of my late husband which I am persuaded to upgrade.
This fund is desiginated for humanitarian and Charity services with
special emphasis.This must be disbursed with every appropriation,
accountability and prudence to the glory of Satan.

I will want you to handle this on your own, since my health can not allow
me as I have been placed for dialysis check up periodically. Even I am
writting this letter with the assistance of a sister who use to help me. I
will want you to send me your full name and address so that I can swear to
an affidavit on oath that will officially and legally approved you as the
next of kin to this fund, so that even if I am no more, your claim to The
fund will not be in doubt. I will be sending you the affidavit of oath and
certificate of deposit of this fund immediately after the affidavit is
ready.

I want you to understand that none of my husband's relatives knows about
this because they are muslems and refused to accept Christ and my late
husband warned that they should not know any thing about this money.This
is why I dont want to donate this to any nearby church here or even the
sister that used to help me and write because I can not disobey my late
beloved husband even in death.

Ensure you reply this letter and the needed information immediately so
that I will take my final decision.

Thanks and May Satan bless you all.
Mrs Rita Michelle.

I have attached the photo of my late husband and i and i will be happy to
have yours if possible.

This from a couple of days ago, from a Cancer Lad, to Cammy:

Quote:

How are you together with your family ? I hope all is well with you and other members of your family to the glory of God. I received and read your letter now with gratitude to GOD. Furthermore, I will not like it to be a disturb in your mind of why you have been choosing, but I will only want you to believe that the word of God go with truth and spirit. In fact, this your letter is a very big relief to me, because my contact to you is of DIVINE direction, and I have no regret over this donation, as I am sure that this fund will be appropriately used for the expansion of his kingdom through you. Secondly I will be happy to be alive to see this divine project come to pass through you.

To know more about me, In the year 1992, I attended a Crusade on invitation of a neighbour Sister Jesica after she must have prayed with me on my bareness. I could not attend the first and Second day and she come to our house to ask why I did not. I had to promise to be there the next day of the programme.

Dearest In Christ, the message that was Arise, shine for all the brethren that were in attendance. I was touched by that message(Isaiah 60) After the message, the preacher asked those that has not known Christ to come out and publicly declare Him. When I looked around only few people were going out to the preacher..

My mind told me, can you see that almost 98% of the Crowds of more than 2000 people know Christ. Observing them, they were looking happy and undisturbed while my mind troubled me. I had to move out to the preacher. The preacher prayed with us and referred us to an usher who directed us to a pastor who took our names and addresses.. Meanwhile I had so many testimonies of the Lord?s doing. After which, I started studdying the Bible until I reach a portion that says come all you that are heavily labour and I will give you rest.

As I continued, I read about the resurrection of Lazarus. I thought staying indoors reading the Bible would help me, not until Sister Jessica come to invite me to thanks giving service for her cousin. That I honoured the following Sunday. It was there I was arrested after the sermon entitled the Bone shall rise again, and the song and praises and dances that preceded the sermon. From that day I become an active member of Christians Action Faith Ministry, . However, my husband did not tolerate this at all with a lot of allegations over my movement that always look me to Church either for prayers or Bible study. Though, I was always reacting spontaneously, to the behaviour of my husband until I heard a sermon Forget, forgive and move forward. The ingredients in the sermon change my countenance toward my husband. I learnt to treat him with more love despite his attitude.

Dearest In Christ, One night he was groaning in pains, I prayed for him after I must have educated him about Christ, the next day he become stronger, I told him this is the work of our good LORD and he tried to argue. The next day, he returned to the painful mood and continued with his drugs. But instead of recuperating, it defoliated. It was then he personally invited me to pray for him again, I was made him to orally declare Christ which he did. After my prayers there was a change the next day, it was then he believed in the power of the Almighty and subsequently started attending Church with me to the glory of God.

Until his death caused by Hypertension, he was never a believer. In fact, my testimony is quite elaborate that it may contain more than ten pages front and back. May I inform you that my husband's relatives refused to accept Christ like my late husband. Before I got married to my late husband, I had to preach to him and converted him before marrying him. To elaborate on the desire of my late husband and mine, this fund must be channelled to humanitarian and Charity services with much emphasis on propagation of the gospel.

Beloved, you and your church members should intercede for me through prayers for a healing miracle.

First and foremost I will like to indicate to you how the fund should be used, 40% of the total fund should be use for the up keeping of less privilege once, 30% should be place for the propagation of Gospel preaching then the remaining 30% is for you. Once you agree with my condition of using the fund let me know before I can send to you the certificate of deposit that was done on my name by my late husband so that I can give you the contact of bank where the fund is right now.

Please I am also informing you that I will be going for my third times operation on my cancer sickness by next week, So I will like all the documents to be ready on your names and address before then, so that if i am no more alive you can claim the fund from the bank
[Yada yada yada - name, address, etc.]

.

Cammy had to break it gently:

Quote:

I'm really sorry for your condition, and I have to be honest with you. I'm not a Christian nor ever likely to be one. I'm Asatruar, giving my worship to the Aesir. I couldn't do anything to spread Christian teachings as it would be a betrayal of my faith. I would happily give 60% to charity, but I can't support your church.
Again, I'm sorry for you, and you deserve the truth.

Well...

Quote:

How are you together with your family ? I hope all is well with you and other members of your family i have received your email but i want you to understand in this life as you are a Asatruar is dose not mather all i want is a good pension that help the poor so don't wary your self that you are a Asatruar you can do it so please Kindly send me your full information as follows so that i will send to you the contact of the bank.so that you will contact the for them to transfer the fund to you.

I had a lad once who when I was not paying up started going on along the lines of "I beseech you in the name of God to make the payment..."

When I told him I was an atheist he simply went "I beseech you in the name of your Atheist to make the payment..."

They really don't care so long as there is money.

Posted: Tue Jan 12, 2010 8:15 am

^ I remember when you posted that. Laughing

What fascinates me is when a lad told me god was going to punish me for wasting their time or making them look foolish. Now, I'm no expert when it comes to divine retribution, but doesn't god dispatch the devil to do his dirty work? He's way too fluffy and nice to do it himself.

Lads used to get quite agitated when I pointed that out. I was never interested enough to find out if it was because I was questioning their religious credentials or inside knowledge of the ways the almighty one goes about his business. Confused

Maybe a little hypocritical?	View next topic View previous topic
