It isn't really!

Look at it from his point of view:
- He thinks you're genuine.
- He believes you have sent a payment for him to collect.
- Unless you do something incredibly irrational or silly, he's unlikely to dump you because you didn't reply immediately to his request. THE PAYMENT IS STILL THERE FOR HIM! (In his eyes, anyway.)

So one thing you could do is go silent on him. He'll send lots of emails urging you on, maybe even a "Okay, I'm going to look for someone else" but that's his character talking not the real person who thinks there's a payment to be picked up.
Give it a few days, maybe the weekend plus a day or two. In that time, ignore all of his emails and just archive them away somewhere so you can laugh at them later.
That will give you some time to think up a plausible story for you silence PLUS think up (or set up) the next bit of delaying.

(This is one of many things you can do, several of which people further down will probably suggest to you.)

Basically, by reacting to his urgency like that, you're putting him in control. Never do that!

Yep I agree leave it over the weekend then email him that your dog/ gran/ mum died and you were too upset to even think about effing MTCN's

Then get him to explain exactly what he means by that (with diagrams) Laughing

You could also do silence, then email him saying you misplaced the receipt and don't know the MCTN off the top of your head, wait a few more days, then email another blurred copy (oops, your scanner's not working well), the back of the form (my mistake, wasn't watching) or just not attach a file (Oops, hit "send," wasn't thinking). I've had success with that. It drives them crazy.

Tell him that is the info that you are getting from them

it is not your fault the receipts are not correct

Suggest a Bank to bank transfer and ask for a bank account so you can send the money

Or tell him that's what the manager gave you, you called back and they were closed.

actually the mf scammer is asking for an id passport or driver license
and i know that if i provide a fake id

it can be used against a victim what should i do?

how can i convince this mfs for them to continue to bite the bait?

^^^

Last time I was asked for an ID, I sent a mp3 of Rick Astley's "never gonna give you up" chorus section looping for 10 minutes, renamed to ID_Scan01.jpg.

If he can't open it, that's not my problem. He should invest in better office equipment.

Or, you could try sending him an alternative link instead of an attachment.

Posted: Mon Sep 02, 2013 3:15 pm

so you only sent a mp3 file and rename it xxxxx.jpg

simple but reliable hehe

Posted: Mon Sep 02, 2013 3:21 pm

yeah, most people copy and rename some obscure .dll file from deep inside window's system folders. Renaming something like an MP3 file always runs the risk that your lad may try changing the extensions and suddenly hear the music.
I just like the idea of a lad trying for so long to open an image only to accidentally rickroll himself...

Posted: Mon Sep 02, 2013 3:23 pm

well that should do the trick,i was speaking with a friedn of mine and was telling me something about file corruptor

have you heard of that ?

Posted: Mon Sep 02, 2013 3:24 pm

no, but it sounds useful if you want to send something that will never be opened :p

I'd also like to throw in that you shouldn't be afraid to get indignant with the lad either. I mean, after all, how DARE he accuse you of not being serious. It's not YOUR fault if the scanner is broken\it got corrupted in the email\he's too stupid to open it properly. There's no way you'll give him the number until you get an apology or some sort. That kind of thing...you get the picture.
Or perhaps you could thank him for having put his assistant mr gomer in touch with you. mr gomer was sooooo helpful and said that everything was fine after he picked the money and you should have your payment shortly.
(then you use all that dolla chop confusion to delay further). I've always been a fan of the ole dolla chop.
Anyhoo, just a couple thoughts for you

If you really want to end it and get them madder than wet hornets, send them the goatseman jpg but rename it as the mtcn number...

goatseman.jpg --> copy_of_mtcn#.jpg
