I was wondering if the proliferation of internet scams in general and 419 in particular might be reaching a point worldwide where a major motion picture on the subject might be a hit. Might the world public be cognizant enough and angered enough by now to welcome such a thing?
There would be a great opportunity within such a production to inform the public of the inner workings of the scam industry.
If it involved an epic safari or some serious justice in the end, I would camp out to buy a ticket.

Johnny Depp can play me.

I don't see it as the plot of a movie. A character in a soap opera being scammed out of a lot of money, on the other hand, might inform a lot of potential victims. |

Feel free to have me played by Brad Pitt. Chuck Norris would be a good idea for Akai Ryu.
Now as far as a movie, I don't know. I would think a Michael Moore style documentary would be the easiest thing to do. Don't invite Moore to the forum though to discuss this... he'll melt as soon as I manage to nail him with a can of slim fast. |

I think it would be a pretty good film, why not? Similar things have been done before..
Of course there was the hit Nigerian film about internet scamming, "The Master" starring Nkem Owoh. (Famous for the soundtrack number "I go chop you dolla"). Maybe we need a film about baiters to balance the books.
I'd be played by Kate Winslet. And I'm not sure why. |

Are they? Probably not.
Are they ready for a movie where a guy gets scammed out of his money, travels to Nigeria, and kills a bunch of lads(hundreds, if not thousands) with a pistol and his bare hands? Yes. |

He could do a Festac City internet cafe with claymores and a flamethrower.
Or how about a plot where a female family member of a Mafia Don gets scammed and the Don takes it personal. After a brutal safari into the Sahara, the lads are "rescued" and brought to the states to face justice Mafia-style. |

Sure.
Any public that's brain-dead enough to sit through six Star Wars and four Indiana Jones films is ready to listen to 120 minutes of a lad speaking almost unintelligible English through a cell phone to a greedy loser who thinks he's hit the jackpot by reading an email written in capital letters.
I even have a title: "No risky free, no fun." |

That I am!
I am currently mulling over ideas for a film screenplay on baiting. Personally, I think it could be quite successful if done properly. The difficulty is, however, doing it properly.
Naturally it could not be JUST about baiting. It would most likely have to consist of several separate but decidedly connected storylines, potentially including:
1. A baiter telling the story of his bait to an audience
2. A depiction of the story the baiter feeds his lad
3. The POV of the scammer
4. What happened to (the Greek guy who got scammed/kidnapped...etc.)
5. The bait ending very badly with a sting operation gone wrong
If any of you have seen Babel, then you know that this could be done properly and well if a lot of time and care is taken in the ordering of scenes. The stories could be told in a disjointed and out of order way and yet still be very interesting.
It would just be incredibly difficult to plot out. Storylines that muck around with time can be a major pain in the ass. Continuity can be difficult to keep up with. Nevertheless it is quite fun.
I should mention that the baits would have to be relatively serious in nature. Otherwise the scammers would have to be painted in a really really bad light. If it was all just about the baiter screwing with the lad, an audience would eventually hate the baiter and sympathize with the lad. Depictions of safaris and the lads in turmoil would have to be keep to a minimum. It would always have to be about the trouble that a victim would go through.
Anyway, those are my thoughts for now. More later once my headache goes away. Development of time-distorting plots is a great source of migraines. |

The name of a main character, when introduced for the first time in a scene, must be in complete caps. So it would be LUCKEY.
Additionally age and description are necessary to further inform producers of what a character would look like.
And oh yeah, just going from that paragraph alone...what's a baiter? No one would know what baiting is so that would confuse them.
/nitpicking
I keed. I enjoy editing people's screenplays. Or faux-screenplays in this case. |

Right. It needs lots of sex!
The perfect bed scene (almost): A couple (unemployed, in debt, somewhat gullible) is in bed doing the two-backed monster.
(He is not informed of the 'deal,' yet.)
She tells him 'ohh, baby, you're better than the millions we're going to get.'
His "excitement" becomes petric and he says 'yeah, here's millions for you.'
She says 'ohh, deeper, it's risky free, we're going to be rich.'
He gasps 'ohh, I feel it already.'
She says: "OH GOD, I sent this guy on the internet all our money, he's going to send us $10,000,000."
He immediately loses his erection and slaps her.
She thinks it's kind of kinky and asks for more ... |
