Mr. Morris,

Thanks for the email. I did not know a Mr. Allan Scott. My condolences on his passing. Could this be a mistake that I was included in his will? When first reading this email, I believed I was very lucky and would receive some money, but I can not think of who Mr. Allan Scott may be. I look forward to your response.

Good Day

Introducing financial problems and Religion..

Peter,

Wow 7.5 million? This would help me tremendously given my current problems. I am concerned that I did not know Mr. Scott. Is it legal for me to accept such a large sum of money without knowing him?

I urgently look for your reply.

Have a blessed day

Still script..

Attention: Brian Roberts.

Thank you for your speed respond to our email Again for the purpose of clarity, and to clear your curiosity about who is Mr. Allan Scott and why he has chosen you as his beneficiary with others; Late Mr. Allan Scott was an America Jewish citizen who died in a ghastly motor accident in South Africa with his wife on the 16th of February 2012; unfortunately they had no children, also Mr. Allan Scott was one of the Shareholder in Palabora Mining Company here in South Africa. My there soul rest in peace.

Mr. Allan Scott was a very generous man, in fact while he was alive his generosity earned him numerous awards in Africa, Europe and Asia; he is a man who was so passionate about the less privilege people and the orphans etc, so in my opinion I believed strongly this is the reason he emphasized that 50% of the total $7.5million that he bequeathed to you must be use for the less privilege people and the orphans in your country while the remaining 50% should be for you and your family.

Candidly, based on the type of life Mr. Allan Scott lived, my obligation is not to question your relationship with him or the reason why he left you this huge amount, rather to guard the remittance procedures so that your $7.5million will be release to you successfully to accomplish what he has committed in your hand.

Please with this my brief explanation about Mr. Allan Scott, I want you to use your devout mind invest the 50% on the project he has committed in your hand once the $7.5million is transfers into your account. For the safety of this transaction I urge you not to relate this matter to anybody in respective of who the person is to you, until we are done and your fund is transfer to you from Mr. Allan Scott’s bank account here into your local account there in your country.

Furthermore, I want you to keep in mind that I would like to meet you face to face either here in my country or in your country once this fund is transfers to you as I look forward to a good relationship between your family and mine.

So I look forward to receive the details listed bellow from you immediately you receive this email to proceed so that your fund can be release to you on time.

1.) Your full names.
2.) Your Current contact address.
3.) Your Date of birth.
4.) Your Cell phone No.
5.) Your House phone No.
6.) Your fax No.
7.) Your occupation.

Setting groundwork for third party..

Quote:

Peter,

I am afraid that I may have ruined this. Being over-joyed with the good news, I spoke with my Pastor this morning. I had intended to donate most of the money to my Church and intend to keep only 2 million so that I do not appear greedy. I am sorry for discussing this with someone else, as I was overjoyed with the news. I hope this does not disqualify me from receiving the money. My Pastor was concerned at first, but after my assurance that you are a good man he is now as excited as I am. Again, I hope this does not change anything.

I do indeed hope to make your acquaintance as you are giving me a good opportunity to do right for myself and my community. Maybe you could one day befriend my Church, as location is not a matter of concern for us. I consider you a friend already. Please, you may address me Brob as my friends do. This makes me feel more like I am talking to a friend then a stranger.

I do eagerly wait your reply so that I can provide information as necessary.

Have a blessed day.

Peter!

One page 1 I am afraid there is a mistake! It says "United State of America" where it should say "United States of America". I am afraid this will cause legal problems..

He doesnt mind..

There is no mistakes about it because that is how it is been spell here in Africa.

Need to bring the Pastor back in and dangle some more incentive..

Quote:

Phew! I didn't want to blow things into proportion!

By the way - My Pastor is setting up some ideas on how we can use this money for a mission trip to Africa to help in areas of need. If the timing is right it may coincide with our annual giving trip, where we bring laptops, cell phones and other technologies to help school kids in need. Do you know any areas that Mr. Scott may have been especially found of?

So to make things faster for your fund to be release to you, I need you to get back to me as soon as you receive this email with the requirement above.

ignoring the laptop offer, lets see if i can get him back

Quote:

Peter

I will try to get access to a scanner today. My scanner is broke, so I may need to visit my Church to use their scanner. Have you given any thoughts to areas we can help out with? I know Pastor BJ Surhoff will ask me when I visit today. I have been told that we have in excess of 50 Dell Laptops this year to distribute. Because of Mr. Scotts generousness towards my Church I think I can encourage these to be sent to areas that he would appreciate.

Please revert back so I have this information for when I visit with Pastor BJ.

-brob

Maybe Pastor BJ will have to get involved here..

Attention: Brian Peppereater Roberts,

Once everything is done and your fund is transfer to you, there are several areas in Africa countries were aid is needed not just South Africa alone, so that is not a problem.

I find this odd. Why would he push off until after the funds that I will never get are received. He clearly isn't interested in anything but a quick buck...

Quote:

Great news Peter! Pastor BJ has agreed to submit you as recipient to distribute 20 of our Laptops beginning immediately.

Can you give me a couple things that I can submit to our board for approval?

Area of need:
Valid Photo ID (attachment is fine)
Belief in Jesus Christ? (Yes or no?)
Favorite color (we have many different cases for these)

If you can get me this information today I can expedite the laptops prior to receiving my funds!

I also have my passport scanned and will send in a short period of time! This has been a GREAT week!

-brob

I think this might end sooner then I had hoped.. going to send a large unreadable image...

Quote:

Peter

Attached is my passport. Please reply to my other email. Pastor BJ has a board meeting in an hour!

Feedback is welcome here, I am not sure how well this is going...

You really shouldn't introduce the laptops before he's fully off script, chances are that he will just ignore you.

Hello I'm New here! Joined: 11 Feb 2013 Posts: 6

He has pretty much ignored it.. I guess I am jumping the gun here. I was hoping they would get him off script but nadda. Any suggestions on getting him off script..?

Posted: Fri Feb 15, 2013 1:56 am

I think things are progressing rather well. Keep it up!

A Lad will be off Script once you get to the actual 'Payment'. This when you can start making his life a bit more complicated. Usually I just go with the flow until its time to start a Transfer of some sort and then introduce characters or imaginary diseases or...essentially you can control just about everything at this point.

As someone who (almost) never sends Lads anything, I hold off on bogus files and the like for as long as possible. Personally I am too lazy to bother with it and it has seemed to work out rather well on occasion. When in doubt, ignore their requests and instead tell them about the Birthday party you went to on the Weekend (the Sandwiches were divine weren't they?).

Lads are plentiful so don't worry if this one doesn't meet your expectations.

OP

PS - Try not to correct their mistakes as DeEducation is much more fun!!!!

Hello I'm New here! Joined: 11 Feb 2013 Posts: 6

I think we are getting close to that point... he is sending me "scanned" documents tomorrow. Something tells me that I am going to have some trouble opening those documents..

I hear what your saying about the de-educating them. I was trying to get him to have to redo the will with the correct spelling, but realized after I sent it that I probably should have just let it be. I did try to add a nice mixed up idiom in there for him...

so what happened with this do I call this guy or do I delete this email?
i'd like to believe this is true and your the only evidence I can find.

Posted: Thu Jun 27, 2013 4:43 am

Delete it, ignore it. It's a scam. As much as you might wish to believe it, the scammer is selling a fantasy, and it would cost you a small fortune. Or a huge one, depending upon how much you have and/or could borrow. Walk away and don't get trapped.
