Hello I'm New here! Joined: 10 Sep 2010 Posts: 1

I have been aware of this forum for several years, and get a kick out of some of the scam baiting stuff. I had a wonderful time with the BustedUpCowgirl a few years ago, reading her blog.
Today, I got a frantic letter from a friend who had been mugged in the UK and needs cash fast! Wow! My lucky day!
So I sent "her" back the following email.

"Oh dear. what an emergency! I will send you thousands and thousands of dollars and all in cash or Euros as soon as possible. I have way more money that I could ever spend, and would love to help out in any way possible.

I can send overnight express or by my own private jet so you will get a huge bag of cash within 12 hours at the most.

Will ten thousand American $ be enough? How about $50K? I can send up to $500k American overnight. Any more would take a few days.
Let me know immediately what you need. "

Moronic, I know.. (see my handle). It was just too easy. I suspect the dopes that sent this will never email me again, but it was fun for 15 seconds.
Just wanted to share that "yup, I'm in the 'are you a dupe target' club"...and NOT just emails for amazing drugs and "pictures of my wife"... but a real scam.

whooohoooo

Welcome to Eater. Very Happy

You should warn your friend that someone has phished or otherwise gotten access to her address book. Everyone else in her address book was probably sent the same email. One of them might send the scammer money, so she should warn them, and she should change her password immediately.

If you are sticking around to do some baiting, get yourself a couple of safe email addies, using all fake details. One is used as the "catcher account," to collect lads, and the other to bait them from. Sometimes lads will get mad and shut down your catcher, if you do baiting from there, and it's more of a pain if that one gets shut down or bombed by a lad than the baiting account.
Read a lot, and have fun. Ask questions if you need a hand, and sign up for a mentor. Smile

Hi, Amanda. You don't have to quote the post right above you. I'm sure a mod will be along shortly to wipe that up.

Oh, welcome to both of you. Read some stickies, get a mentor, cause massive amounts of mental trauma to heartless criminals... Just live the dream, I guess.

Is Amanda Steward's feminine portion? Ahh the duality! She has a missing post now!!!

Amanda's was a life of excess and it ended up being the death of her.

Am I the only one who can still see Amanda's post?

I just got off the phone with Amanda. She told me to tell Slightly he left his plus size thong in the shrubs outside her window again (she said it was recognizable by the usual smell of rotten onions and ammonia) and something about a tazer waiting for next time.
Oh and she told me to tell Dutch to shut up and stay out of this.

I think there was something special about the OP's join date. It must be a sign from Steward. 10-9-10

It HaS to mean something.

We are humbled! bow_down

That's definitely not how I know Amanda. At least I quoted her PM, I doubt that you recorded your telephone conversation, or did you?

@'Noid: Help me out with the 10-9-10 bit, why do you think it's an omen? I have to know!

She has a birth defect which makes her voice impossible to preserve in any media format. If you truly knew her, I wouldn't have to tell you that.
