And that is what he'll get.
I'm still miffed about him dropping me last time.

Must change my log-in name as well. Need an Admin I think.

Edit 1 : got a reply, but I can't tell you as it is a very secret and confidential deal

I have been chosen as I have exactly the same surname as the deceased.
Bit of luck there, seeing as I am from Sw3d3n.

Sir/Madam,

Above named person, Mr. Chibuzo Okeke is an orphan, with a family of four, wife and three children Okechukwu, 6 years, Elizabeth, 4 years, Nancy, 2 years. The wife is not employed.
Chibuzo is a casual worker at a construction company, PPMC, to sustain his family.
Four days ago he was trapped in fire inferno in the site, and was rushed to a hospital where the doctors made a diagnosis of 86% fire degree burns and about $10, 000 dollars is required to save his life.
Now the company has abandoned him, no relations to help.
Hence I am seeking your help to save this life, no matter how little. Time is not on our side.
Attached is the Chibuzor�s picture.
Thanks.

Best Regards
Steve Uche
CHAIRMAN

I will attempt to rebait from this account

I was just about to consign the file to the 'dead' folder when I got a message from him.

was how he started. The amount he says he has collected has dropped to $4000.
I am now baiting him as 2 different people, but he is also 2 'different' people so it's likely going to get a bit confusing.
If anyone wants to take one off me they are welcome to send a pm.

I've now got to my Swedish Account and in his other incarnation got this :

I am baiting today with new account and character.

The picture attachment wouldn't open on my computer. Which is probably a good thing. God, I hate this man.

@Tommo

I managed to open the attachment. It is the severe burn picture he was using before.

I just sent an introductory "how can I help" post last night.

Posted: Wed Mar 28, 2007 4:39 pm

I received another message at 12:55.
Now he says he doesn't want my money, I wish he would make his mind up. Mad

Mark 1 flame msx sent back.

He asked for $10,000 via Western Union (same address as before). I offered him $500, I will see if he responds

EDIT/UPDATE: I just "sent" him $1000 so he thinks via money gram. My new character is 80 years old and will be sure to "lose" the recipet after Mr. Uche finds the number does not work. I think I remember something about a "customer diservice line" here. If anyone is involved, could you PM me the info, this lad could use some diservice.

Hahah, my friend is baiting this guy too (we are sharing a bait account). Here is our third exchange so far (he has turned down a laptop offer).

Quote:

Dear Mr. St3v3 Uch3,

Oh dear, I am afraid you are requesting an amount of money that supecedes my
financial limits. Oh! But I must be true to my Christian faith, and give all
that I can.

Alright, I will increase my previous offering tenfold, to an amount of $5000
(FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS USD). This is all I can accumulate at such a short
instant. Would this be helpful?

I bemoan the fact that this is the threshhold of my financial contribution
to the Okeke family. Blast! I wish my financial limits could match half of
my Spiritual limits, which are limitless! I can only hope to find a common
point between the two.

I am awfully sorry if I am causing a delay in transaction, and possibly an
inconvenience to you and the Okeke family. I only want to brighten the lives
of these poor and saddened people, in the most convenient way I can. What I
am giving is a considerably large amount of money, and I hope that it is
going into the right hands. However thinking about the hardships the family
is going through has unnerved me to a degree where I am weeping constantly
at the thought of the wonderful Okekes' sufferings in the midst of a world
where there is little outreach for help. I refuse to believe that there is
an evil in the world where good people are being purposeably taken advantage
of and exploited. I must adhere with great vehemence to my Christian faith,
and see this opportunity as an act of Grace and Goodwill by God.

I apologize because I have digressed, as I have now become emotionally as
well as financially invested in this endeavor. Please respond to let me know
whether this new proposal is sufficient. If it is, I will make no more delay
and promptly submit the necessary information needed to complete the
transaction.

Also I am still waiting for the picture of the family I had requested in my
last letter. I am serious when I say that it would harbour great sentimental
value for myself.

Soli Deo Gloria, Dei Gratia. All be Blessed in the Name of Our Lord and
Shepherd.

Good evening sir,

Please sir, hope that you recieved the pictures of Mr. Chibuzo's family. Sir, please, God has been so kind to us. We have $5800 now. God has touched the heart of 4 people that contributed to save the life of this poor man and i pray that God in his infinite blessings. Will also save and guide every memeber of their family including you, because you save life. So God has every right to save you and every member of your family on your going out and coming in. He shall guide and protect you.

Please sir, no amount will be too small. i pray that God should help us to pay deposit the money my next week. So the hospital can start up the surgery immediately.
Please, any amount you send will be appreciated.

Thanks and God bless.
St3v3 Uch3

...he never sent any pictures of "the Chibuzor's" family. And I don't think he understands much of what we said.

Posted: Mon Apr 02, 2007 2:05 pm

He sent the family pictures to me, I'll post them when I get a chance.

You can please sir, give us your telephone number to enable me call you for the wife of Mr. Chibuzo to express her appreciation for your contribution to save the life of the husband ro you can call me on +2348O39386859 to speak with the wife.

Anyone fancy calling him or vice versa?

Posted: Tue Apr 03, 2007 2:35 am

I've been baiting this guy for a few weeks and have closed 3 accounts. All you have to do to get accounts off him is tell him you work for a legal charity who will NEVER send moneyu via any other means than bank transfers.
I'm now waiting for my 4th bank details from him. Twisted Evil

Posted: Tue Apr 03, 2007 8:15 am

Me and Mr Uche have had another fall out and my second baiting character is about to lose his business. Hey ho. On to number 3.

Anybody else on this forum still actively engaging this sanctimonious creep?

I'm still into him with one character, he's said he won't speak to the other, but he has said that before.
My current character has sent him a WU form (hope he speaks Swedish)

At this rate Uch3 will have his own Eater section.
