Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to pose with a 419eater.com advert, but not in a cybercafe; that might prove a little dangerous Smile

I wish i was coming man, i love snooping around

If you meet Charles Soludo and there are some millions to be transferred out of the country, don't forget to let us know and we will send you any amount you need for expenses via Western Union ...

Road maps. Get detailed road maps. Scan them in and upload them.

Very Happy

Ah yes, road maps. Try to find an entire country atlas if you can.

Photos of the cafes would be excellent. Addresses of the cafe and if possible the IP to go with it.
The telephone number to the cafe.

Good luck on your trip

Oh cool - there's a trunkbox full of cash waiting for me at the Central Bank Of Ladland. Could you just go and pick it up for me and bring it back? It will save an awful lot of thrashing around. I'll give you 5% for your trouble. Cheers mate!

What about trying to find the Pyramid of Faith?

Posted: Thu Nov 23, 2006 7:50 am

Yes! If you can get some proper co-ordinates for Google Earth that would be fantastic. Better hurry though - the pyramid's days are numbered........ (any news on that front BTW?)

As I understand it, the internet 'hot-spots' in Lagos and Abuja have 5 or 6 internet cafes in every street...!!

I have lots of contacts in Nigeria that actually use these cafes.....but thats another story for another day.... Wink

Hey doe! Long time no see. Some scans of national and local newspaper front pages would be very useful.

Have a good trip. Very Happy

Please supply a detailed account of passing through customs and dealing with officialdom at the airport.

I'd like to know if the Ho's are really 2 Niara.

^^^^ Only the expensive ones

Posted: Thu Nov 23, 2006 11:44 am

Actually a few decent photos of the area, hotels, bars etc would be great.....

A little wave of the photoshop wand, and hey presto...!!

You magically appear. Providing proof absolute, that you were at the hotel after all..... Wink

1 request. Come back safely!

Ofcourse if you're not that concerned for safety, perhaps a few of the lads can be waiting at the airport holding amusing signs for their victims.
Be discreet if you really need to take a picture though

Find out if the cafes sell signs, marker pens, photos etc, and see if there are ads for tattoo parlours in them.

Send yourself a quick email from any cafe you find, and post up the IP's when you get back.

Don't get robbed or scammed.

Posted: Thu Nov 23, 2006 12:27 pm

I had a thought but then paseed it off as probably too dangerous but thought I'd post it as it would be a nice dream.

If someone bating with a ridiculous name would announce that they are coming as well and that their lad had to meet them at the airport with a big sign in the arrivals lounge.

What a sight/treat that would be for you to arrive to! Laughing

Posted: Thu Nov 23, 2006 12:39 pm

Definitely - any things that could be used by baiters would be great! If you're staying in a local hotel perhaps a blank copy of the reservation form or whathaveyou and a photo of the outside so that baiters can say they're staying there.

And local newspapers as well would be good along with any of the local forms that we can say we got from WU for them to fill in. If we know what theirs look like we can make them look even more convincing.

Also, of course, a photo of anyone with a 'Baited By Shiver' tattoo would be priceless!

But yeah, number one rule - be safe. Smile

Can you get me a life size-cardboard cutout of Charles Soludo - preferably the one where he's shaking hands.

Fer godsake, don't get kidnapped. You know what they do with kids - and older goats too, they aren't fussy!
