After a RL break I am into baiting again with full power.

After using my old char Helmut K0g3lberger for all my preceeding baits I have decided a new approach.

In Helmut´s catcher account I found the following letter:

Quote:

Dear sir,

How are you and your families today? hope all is well.

I wish to inform you that the bank is contemplating on cancelling your online suspense account due to your delay in compliance on sending the required fee that will enable you to receive first partial payment of $100k from syndicate bank of London western union department then we will hand you over the withdrawal tools, like cheque book, Master gold cards and debit cards, with the online access to your new opened account, all this information's will be handle over to you as we have already opened the account for you and is now ready to be used after we present the authorization documents, Please do ensure you call me (blablabla...)

Please you are advised to try as much as you could in sending the fee today to protect your funds from cancellation.

Awaiting to hear from you as soon as possible,

Thank you,

DR. ASINA (name leeted, Latin for female donkey)

As this mail was already resting two weeks in my mailbox already I decided to introduce 2 new characters and let the good Helmut (temporarily) die.

Enter his daughter Isabella Bist3cca and the trophy widow Gr3tchen.

From Helmut´s account Isabella sends the following response:

Quote:

Dear Mrs. Asina,

I just now found your mail in an account of my late father, Dr. Helmut Xxxx. I am not familiar with this issue so could you please elaborate on it so we can settle this affair?

Many thanks in advance,

Isabella

Lad is still interested.

Quote:

PLEASE NOTE, THE MANAGEMENT OF THE ICBC BANK, NEW YORK ARE NOW DELIBERATING ON RETURNING THE FUNDS TO THEIR ESCROW ACCOUNT SINCE YOU WERE NOT YET READY TO FULFILL THE REQUIRED OBLIGATION THAT ENABLE THE RELEASE OF THE ACCUMULATED INTEREST FUNDS TO YOU. THOUTH I TOLD THEM TO HOLD ON TILL AFTER TODAY WHICH THEY HAVE AGREED.

AND AFTER SERIES OF MEETINGS WITH BANK WHERE YOUR ACCUMULATED INTEREST WAS DEPOSITED THEY NOW ACCEPTED TO TAKE ONLY $200 FOR ACTIVATION AND DELIVERY OF THE BANK TOOLS TO YOUR HOUSE OR OFFICE IN YOUR COUNTRY AND THIS THE ONLY MONEY YOU WILL PAY. NOTE, AS I STATED IN MY LAST MESSAGE TO YOU, THIS WEEKEND IS THE FINAL DEADLINE WHICH ICBC AUTHORITIES HAS GIVEN US , THEREFORE FAILURE TO MAKING THIS PAYMENT TODAY THE MANDATE WILL EXPIRE AND EVERY OUTSTANDING FUNDS WOULD BE CANCELLED AND BE TRANSFERRED TO GOVERNMENT TREASURY ACCOUNT AS CONFIRMED BY THE BANK.

SO I URGE YOU TO PROCEED TO YOUR BANK IMMEDIATELY AND WIRE THE FEE AS DIRECTED VIA WESTERN UNION IN MY LAST MESSAGE FOR US TO CONCLUDE THE TRANSFER OF THE INTEREST YOUR FUND ACCRUED SO THAT YOU CAN HAVE ENOUGH MONEY TO CLAIM THE MAIN AMOUNT IN SYNDICATE BANK

THANKS IN ANTICIPATION OF YOUR CORPORATION

Isabella is not interested in scripted crap:

Quote:

Dear Mrs. Aziz,

thank you for your quick reply. I have to apologize that I cannot find any mails specifying this business deal. My late father either deleted every mail or, more likely, transferred the whole correspondence to an external hard drive. I tried to access it but it is password protected. Besides I am working for a Italo-Thai joint venture in Bangkok and only had a few days off to attend my father´s funeral and have a quick look at his possessions. To make matters worse, after she found out about my visit my stepmother has exchanged the locks of Daddy´s villa and denies me any access.

As I will probably not see a single Euro from my father´s inheritance I am very much interested in completing this deal. Please let me know all details so I can do the necessary things.

With many thanks in advance,

Isabella

Attention: My stepmother will most likely cancel this mail account or change the password, so please send your answer to [email protected]

It is most vital that this business remains undetected by my stepmother. Thanks.

Let the lad work for his money and set the stage for the evil stepmother.

Three days pass without answer. A poke from Isabella´s mail account:

Quote:

Dear Mrs. Asina,

The answer is an impolite all cap shorty:

Quote:

I SENT YOU EMAIL BUT YOU NEVER RESPONDED PLEASE CALL ME LET ME EXPLAIN MORE BETTER ON THE PHONE AND YOU NEED TO SAFE THIS TRANSACTION FROM CANCELLATION TODAY BECAUSE OF DEADLINE IF NOTHING IS DONE AFTER TODAY YOU MIGHT NOT ABLE TO RECEIVE THE FUND ANYMORE SO PLEASE CALL ME OR EMAIL ME BACK RIGHT NOW

Nope No phone chatting.

Quote:

Dear Mrs. Asina,

there is no need to shout at me in such a rude manner. I have just lost my beloved father to a freaky accident while he was talking on the phone with me and my stepmother has a court order denying me access to my birthplace. I was able to retrieve one mail you sent to my father which however poses more questions to me than it answers.

I am now back in Bangkok but in no emotional condition to resume my work. I cry the whole day and halfway through the night whenever I think of my father. Your attitude towards me is not helping me to proceed with our business. Please forward me all mails you sent to my father so I can do whatever is required. And after the horror of hearing on the phone how my father died I am unable to even touch a phone without crying and shaking uncontrollably.

Distinti saluti,

Isabella

Do some work for your money, lad.

Quote:

Your silent almost caused a big damage towards the pursuit of your funds with Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (ICBC) and also in the Syndicate Bank, London.
The authorities intended to cancel the payment 2 days ago due to your non compliance, but considering the fact that the cancellation of this funds would really effect me if it eventually happens, as all my efforts so far would be in vain, so I therefore decided to dispose my gold jewelry for the sum of the required fee and deposited the money to the ICBC bank to protect the funds from cancellation. Right now your ATM CARD and Bank Draft is ready to be transferred to you at your doorstep.

However we hope you understand that the amount in question to be delivered to you is a huge amount and therefore it needs to be insured properly from insurance company against the event of any damage so you don't loose out.

It is required that you pay an insurance fee of $320 today so we can start out the delivery immediately. You are to send the address where the draft and cards will be DHL to you. So get back to me with the payment slip for confirmation.

I hope you understand the importance of this insurance fee and i want you to know that nothing more is required just this insurance fee so your fund which can change your life situation will be protected against any loss or damage.

Please call me for clarifications and also let me know you receive this important message and serious message from myself.

What a generous and helpful soul. Address? No problem:

Quote:

Dear Mrs. Aziz,

many thanks for your help. Here is my current address in Bangkok:

Isabella Xxxxxxxxx
xx/xx Th4wee W4tthana Condo
xx/x Barommaratchachonnanee Rd.
Th4wee W4tthana
10170 Bangkok

Distinti saluti,

Isabella

Non existing address.

Isabella gets payment instructions:

Quote:

Dear Isabella,

Your address has been duly noted and now your card and draft is ready to be dispatch to your address in Bangkok but before the delivery can take place today you must pay the sum of $320 for the XXX Insurance coverage before of the safety delivery of the bank tools to your hand in your country so go ahead and send the money to the icbc bank protocol agent in California with below details

RECEIVERS NAME: J4CQUELINE Xxxx
ADDRESS: CALIFORNIA USA
AMOUNT: $320

I am waiting for your urgent compliance in sending the fee today

Regards,

DR. Asina

Insufficient information:

Quote:

Dear Mrs. Asina,

I searched all your mails, but there are no bank account details and no account owner address so I could not send the money.

Distinti saluti,

Isabella

Quote:

Send the fee to the below account information:

Wells Fargo Bank
20xx Market St San Francisco, CA, United States +1 800-869-xxxx
Account Name: Jacqueline Xxxx
account # 852080xxxx
routing #12100xxxx
swift code WFBIUS6S

I am anticipating your urgent response

That´s better but still not good enough. I want full details of the mule.

Quote:

Dear Mrs. Asina,

there was a problem today. I tried to transfer the money at the Central Pinklao branch of the Kasikorn Bank and they insisted that for international transfers they need the complete address of the account owner. I tried to negotiate, but both the clerk´s English and my Thai were not good enough to reach a compromise. Can you send me the address of the account owner so I can finish this transaction by tomorrow afternoon? Tante grazie.

Distinti saluti,

Isabella

It is almost too easy:

Quote:

My full name is : Jacqueline Xxxx
My address is : (mule´s address), California, 90805 U.S.A.
Wells Fargo Bank
2020 Market St San Francisco, CA, United States +1 800-869-xxxx
Account Name: Jacqueline Xxxx
account # 852080xxxx
routing #12100xxxx
swift code WFBIUS6S

I am anticipating your urgent response

Account and mule duly reported via the eater channel.

Meanwhile the mourning widow has finally found the password for Helmut´s email account and stumbles across an interesting email:

Quote:

Dear Dr. Asina,

if I may introduce myself, I am Gretchen K0g3lberger, widow of the late Helmut K0gelb3rger. I can see that my stepdaughter has hijacked my husband´s email account and is apparently trying to steal what is rightfully mine.

Whatever she offers you for my late husband´s belongings I will offer twice the sum. Please tell me whether you are interested in doing business with me. I would appreciate if you kept our conversation confidential.

Yours truly,

Gretchen

Gretchen has a solid working class upbringing and will take no shxt from nobody:

Quote:

Dear Dr. Aziz,

last time i looked I did neither have a moustache and a willie, but titties and a pussy. So why do you suddenly call me "Sir"?

My "long silence" was caused by the fact that my husband Helmut kicked the bucket and it took me until yesterday to get the password for this email account. I have no clou what you are offering in detail, but I want to make sure that my bitch of a stepdaughter who already talked to you will get nothing of it. Send me all the details and rest assured I will offer twice what she does.

Yours truly,

Gretchen

That´s it for now, one easy piggy and a mule´s address without any particular effort. A promising lad. To be continued.

Posted: Sat Jun 07, 2014 8:14 pm

Exemplary work. Well done, looking forward to seeing this lad give up more vital assets. This won't be good for business!
... Also the early introduction of a second character will reduce his tendency to see a "joker" if he starts believing that there are two people.

Thanks for all the praise. Hope I can earn it.

Posted: Mon Jun 09, 2014 5:23 pm

As the bank account has been reported I have to stall the transfer for a while. And the current situation in Thailand is just right for that. Almost any headline from the daily newspapers is suitable, like this one:

NCPO shelves 350 billion baht water projects for reconsideration

Isabella apologizes:

Quote:

Dear Mrs. Asina,

I have to apologize but I was unable to go to the bank today as I had to work overtime. Our company is a big player in the Thai Government´s plans for water management. Now, as the military has taken over they have cancelled the whole program because of lack of transparency. So our management called for a staff meeting at 5 pm which went along until almost 9 pm. Then I got into a traffic jam and when I reached Central Pinklao [a large shopping mall] they had closed already. So sorry, I will try again tomorrow.

Distinti saluti,

Isabella

Posted: Mon Jun 09, 2014 5:34 pm

Lad is sending an all caps confused statement to Gretchen:

Quote:

I AM READY TO SEND YOUR BANK ITEMS RIGHT NOW WITH DHL, BUT ACCORDING TO THE RULES AND REGULATIONS GUIDING INTERNATIONAL MATTERS OF THIS NATURE WE MUST REGISTER YOUR NAME WITH REAL BONDING COMPANY IN CALIFORNIA BECAUSE IT IS STANDING MANDATORY RULES SINCE APRIL 2013 THAT ANY FUNDS OR BANK ITEMS YOU ARE TRANSFERRING OR SENDING OUT OF ICBC BANK THROUGH COURIER MUST HAVE "SURETY BOND ON YOUR NAME BEFORE WE SEND THE BANK ITEMS TO YOU AND YOU COULD HAVE ACCESS OF MAKING WITHDRAWAL WITH THE BANK WITHDRAWAL INSTRUMENT, BECAUSE IT WILL HELP YOU SECURE YOUR FUNDS IN 100% ANYTIME YOU WANT TO USE YOUR CARD OR CASH THE BANK DRAFT FROM YOUR BANK SO THE FEE IS FOR YOU TO BE PROTECTED BY A REAL BONDING COMPANY THAT WILL STAND AS A GUARANTOR TO THIS TRANSACTION SO THAT IF ANYTHING GOES WRONG THE AETNA BONDING IN L.A WILL BE HELD RESPOSIBLE AND YOUR FUND WILL BE CLEARED LEGALLY AND WILL BE ABLE TO START MAKING WITHDRAWAL OF YOUR FUND IMMEDIATELY.

edit: OMG, this is just one sentence!

Gretchen sends a blunt retort:

Quote:

Dear Dr. Asina,

what the f.ck are you trying to tell me? I do not understand a single sentence. I am not interested in what you have to do. I want to know:

1. What is my late husband entitled to and how much is it worth.
2. What information do you need from me - address, bank account, whatever.
3. How much do I have to pay in fees (if any) upfront and to which account.

I do not give a flying fart about bonding companies, surety, guarantors, vulcanoes, registration and other banking crap. Cut it short and to the point.

Or are you trying to keep me waiting to finish the deal with my stepdaughter. Remember I will reward you handsomely to prevent her from getting her filthy claws on Helmut´s property.

Yours truly,

Gretchen

I still doubt the lad is fully aware what is actually happening and the golden opportunities for him that come with it.

Posted: Tue Jun 10, 2014 12:37 pm

Gretchen gets a long and equally boring scripted mail from Dr. Asina, strangely now from another mail account. It lands in her spam folder and was left there. Then, from the original account Gretchen gets this:

Quote:

who is trying a fuck with you? i don't appreciate that tune of your language so please withdraw that statement, if your husband is dead please kindly attached the death certificate let the bank see if what you were saying is for real

Off script now, but the lad is apparently thick as a bag of hammers. Gretchen sends a lengthy response with some taunting and reiterates her offer of a reward:

Quote:

Dear Dr. Asina,

I may be a country bumpkin from Kentucky but even I know that you do not ask total strangers who was trying "a fuck" with them. While I cannot complain about a lack of interest after my Helmut died it is still none of your intercoursing business.

I would also appreciate if you sent your mails in the standard form beginning with "Dear..." and ending with a similar show of respect. This "hey you!" style may be appropriate in your country, it is certainly not here in Germany and not even at a family BBQ in the Kentucky countryside.

In my last email I asked you three simple questions. Are they outpacing your intellectual and professional capabilites? Why don´t you then hand over the whole business to one of your subordinates and let them handle it for you?

Ok, here they are again:

1. What is my late husband entitled to and how much is it worth?
2. What information do you need from me - address, bank account, whatever?
3. How much do I have to pay in fees (if any) upfront and to which account?

I hope we do not again waste our time with pointless bickering. I already told you that your constant delaying raises the suspicion that you are trying to settle this business affair with my stepdaughter and leave me hanging high and dry.
Let me tell you a few things. Isabella was Helmut´s daughter from his first marriage. His wife left him for an Italian macho coleone after 3 years and took Isabella with her. Helmut has been supporting her throughout his whole life. The little brat is now working for an Italo-Thai joint venture (actually a symbiotic enterprise between the Mafia and corrupt Thai politicians) in Bangkok and she makes an appalling salary. My late husband has up to his death been transferring a decent monthly sum overseas to prevent her from ending up on Walking Street in Pattaya. I have now stopped this charity. And I want to make sure that she will not see a single Euro from whatever it is that belongs to Helmut.

I am willing and able to show my appreciation with a lavish "finder´s reward" on an off-shore account of your chosing if you conclude this deal with me and leave that little Katzlmacherin out of the loop.

Yours truly,

Gretchen

Later Isabella will send a fake invoice claiming transfer of the required money.

Hi GW,

it depends on the lad. This is the first time I got a piggie and a mule that fast. Usually they whine and weep a lot more and insist on the WUBS.

Meanwhile Isabella sends a reminder:

Quote:

Dear Mrs. Asina,

I have just tried to access my father´s email account and the password has been changed. That means that my evil stepmother has now access to all of my daddy´s mails. I hope you did not write any mails to this account. I have dropped all our correspondence into the trashcan to make sure that Gretchen cannot interfere with our transaction. Please be careful nevertheless. She is very greedy and will use all her power and money (and she has a lot of both) to get what she wants.

Did you receive the payment slip I attached to my last mail? Please let me know if you need any further documents to complete the transaction.

Distinti saluti,

Isabella

The poor girl however forgot to empty the trashcan. Lad surprises with:

Quote:

Call me now. Very important. +19292240710

That is New York. Dr. Asina claims to be in Malaysia and her mule is in California. What a pity that Isabella´s mobile contract does not cover the USA.

Lad has realized that he sent Gretchen a mail from his second (live.com) account - which landed in spam and was rightfully ignored. So he sends the following stupid script from his first (outlook.com) account to Gretchen.
He certainly won´t like the response:

Quote:

Dear sir,

I wish to inform you that any bank items we are sending out of Industrial and commercial bank of China (ICBC) New York must have insurance coverage certificate before the beneficiary will be allow to use the withdrawal tools, so we were advised by the Courier to ensure that we pay an insurance fee for your fund and they deemed it necessary because previous cases where shipped items ended up been damaged or misplaced ended up in court as the owners of funds or items shipped without an insurance fee was stopped hence forth.

So i must let you understand that working with the insurance company is the best way because after this last payment by the beneficiary the REAL BONDING COMPANY will stand as a guarantor to this transaction which is 100% guarantee and assured, because whatever that goes wrong the insurance company will be held responsible.

This is main reason why i,m advising you to comply and pay for the insurance coverage official fees of $320 only which is the only thing required of you, so therefore it is for your own benefit that we insured your bank items and your life because that is what will help you to secure your funds 100% in anytime you are using your bank items to make withdrawal of your fund, so the registration of your name and items with the insurance company before delivery is the reason why am repeating myself on this case, so that your bank items will be cleared legally and you will be able to use them for withdrawal in your country at anytime after we receive the insurance fee and send the card and draft to you within period of 24 hours.

so i urge you to try your very best against all odds and look for a means to get the fee today so your fund delivery can commence.

Your ATM CARD and bank draft will be delivered to you today as soon as you have the fee paid today and you have my word and assurance on this one.

I await your urgent response.

DR. ASINA

Posted: Wed Jun 11, 2014 4:03 pm

Gretchen sends a nice letter back to Mr. Brainless (Mrs. Asina):

Quote:

Dear Sir as well,

I am beginning to like you. You remind me of Helmut´s Wastl. Sadly he drowned in our swimming pool while trying to get out via the ladder at the deep end when he could have walked out on the other side. But a tough little bugger, took him 3 hours to accept defeat. Life can be a bitch sometimes.
Anyway, back to business. Not surprisingly I am still waiting for my answers, but i suppose you are just not that into this question thingie. But to make you feel good I will pay the fee today and expect the ATM card and bank draft to arrive at my doorstep before midnight. Oh and my offer still stands about some extra money for your private account when the deal is done.

Yours truly,

Gretchen K. (Mrs.)

Wastl is the "standard" name for a German Dachshund. Let´s see if and when the lad realizes that he has not send any information for payment and has not received any mailing address.

Isabella has bad news for the lad:

Quote:

Dear Mrs. Asina,

I tried to call you for one hour but to no avail. When I called my mobile company they told me that this is not a number in Malaysia but in New York. Are you there now? My contract just covers the ASEAN states. I even called my beloved daddy only with a prepaid sim which gave a good rate just for Western Europe.
You still haven´t acknowledged receipt of my payment slip. I am a bit worried because my stepmother has cut off my monthly allowance from daddy. My job does not pay too well at the moment.

Distinti saluti

Isabella

Posted: Thu Jun 12, 2014 1:52 am

Isabella´s "payment slip" has arrived - a gimp & publisher job.

Quote:

Dear Isabella,
We received the money transfer slip and it has been forwarded to the icbc bank for confirmation once they receive the money into their agent account your name and fund will be register with insurance company in London then i will take the receipt to DHL and ship the bank withdrawal items to you in Bangkok Thailand.

Please confirm to me that you get this message and wait for my next update

Regards,

DR. ASINA

xD He got so excited at the prospect of being paid without hassle that he forgot to send the details to Ms. Gretchen? He's a failure, even by lad standards.

Posted: Thu Jun 12, 2014 10:21 am

Well, he even fails to see that it would pay a lot better to deal with the mourning rich widow than with the financially struggling daughter.

Posted: Fri Jun 13, 2014 1:26 pm

Gretchen sends another poke as the lad remains silent.

Quote:

Dear Dr. Asina,

how are you today. It seems that my offer failed to make you rethink which side you are on. I am willing to increase the amount if you in return make sure that my stepdaughter Isabella does not get a single Cent from my late husband´s property. My reward will go directly and discretely to a private account of your chosing so nobody else will know it.
Do you need my husband´s death certificate to legitimize my claim? Just let me know.

BTW.: I do not mind if you extract some fees from that little Italian bitch, provided she does not get anything of value in return.
Do not try to play hard to get, it will be of no benefit to you. I expect your answer ASAP.

Yours truly,

Gretchen

On Monday Isabella will tell the lad that the money transfer bounced. I will prepare a letter in English and Thai that the National Council for Peace and Order (genuine institution since the military takeover of Thailand) has tightened the regulations for overseas transfers to prevent corrupt politicians and public servants to get their assets to safety.

Posted: Fri Jun 13, 2014 9:18 pm

The phone number confirmed it . . . . I've been baiting this lad on and off for like, forever. He must not be very successful if he keeps coming back to me with his bank scam. He can be a prolific emailer when you're giving him attention, but he's very entertaining. Have fun with him!

Posted: Sat Jun 14, 2014 11:34 am

Thanks a lot for that info. I will do my very best to make this a mutually beneficial encounter.

Posted: Sat Jun 14, 2014 12:52 pm

Love your style! You get the ever needy daughter with the contrasting needy and crude stepmother. He truly is dense to not see the stepmother is the cash cow and where he should focus attention. This one will continue to be fun to watch.
And welcome back!

Posted: Sat Jun 14, 2014 3:05 pm

Grazie per il complimento...

Lad sends a complaint (Working weekends now, are we? Times must be tough.) as the money has not arrived. How could that have happened?

Quote:

Dear Isabella,

There is no money in our agent account. Wire transfer is usually 72 hours i don't know why the money you sent since four days ago was not reflected into our agent account please consult your bank for tracer of the status of the fund.

Thanks

DR. ASINA

Isabella thinks she has the answer:

Quote:

Dear Mrs. Asina,

I have just returned home from a business dinner and found a lengthy message from my bank in my mailbox. I have cut the legal advisories and bank promotion offers and attached the important part of it. I am now deeply worried as this upcoming week I have to renew my business visa and have an interview for my application for a residence permit. I will have to go to my bank to clarify this issue and hope it does not get me on any black list. If I lose my job here I am in deep trouble.

Please read the attached jpg file - I hope it is readable and sent me your opinion on this matter.

I have also found a nasty mail from my stepmother telling me to expect hard times ahead. Does this bank letter have anything to do with it? If you are in contact with my stepmother or if she is trying to contact you please let me know immediately. I am very worried now.

Mille grazie e distinti saluti

Isabella

I attached a nice gimp/publisher letter from the bank stating that the Anti Money Laundering Office (a real institution here in Thailand) has screened the transfer and decided to hold it pending further investigations.

Let´s see if the lad is honest and tells her of Gretchen´s attempts to sabotage the business deal.

Posted: Sat Jun 14, 2014 4:11 pm

Hmmm, lad is reacting strangely:

Quote:

you are crazy. bastard fuck off..........

Did the reporting of bank account and mule cause this reaction? I won´t surrender this bait easily.

Isabella:

Quote:

Dear Mrs. Asina,

I do not know why I deserve having expletives hurled at me. It is not my fault that my transfer was blocked by AMLO. I will go to the bank on Monday to demand clarification. Or are you cancelling our deal because my stepmother offered you a large sum of money?

You should know that since the military took over this country it is no longer possible to bribe your way out of trouble. And you got me in really deep. The least you can do is use your position to clear my name with the Thai authorities. If this transfer was fully legal this should be no problem.

I am awaiting your response.

Distinti saluti

Isabella

And from Gretchen:

Quote:

subj.: Bravo Bravissimo

Dear Dr. Asina,

I knew we would become friends. Isabella just sent me a nasty mail accusing me of sabotaging getting her rightful share of Helmut´s inheritance. I still can´t believe you told the little bitch to get stuffed. You are really cool.

I will stick to my promise. Is EUR 5000.00 enough to compensate and reward you? If not just tell me your price and we may haggle a bit.

Anyway just send me your bank account details and I will transfer your reward.

BTW. I am going to buy this sailing yacht from my newly acquired wealth. It is achored in Phuket, Thailand. So why don´t we celebrate our victory with a nice sailing trip in July this year? Don´t worry, I have a fully current offshore yachtmaster license and can handle that beauty.

Let me know.

Yours truly,

Gretchen

I attached a pic of a nice old fashioned sailing yacht on sale.

Fingers crossed that the lad does not jump ship.

Posted: Sun Jun 15, 2014 11:35 pm

Just keep it all straight and level, if he suspects a joker now he may reconsider later if you just keep in character. Fingers crossed.

Posted: Fri Jun 27, 2014 5:26 pm

Lad came back to Gretchen out of the blue so here is what happened in the meantime.

Isabella tries her best:

Lad, very short:

Quote:

no bye bye

Gretchen also pokes him:

Quote:

Dear Dr. Asina,

I haven´t heard from you for a while. It is usually not my habit to run after people who I owe money, but as I promised to reward you I have to stick with it.

Next week I will do a little biz class trip from Munich to Phuket to have a look at the yacht and maybe finalize the deal. Hope you will accept my invitation for mid to end of July.

Btw. is my husband´s stuff still available? While I do not need it as I now have a real shitload of money from my late Helmut - more than I could ever spend reasonably - I would love to see my stepdaughter´s face when I tell her that I outsmarted her.

The brat has found another sponsor to support her, Helmut´s young sister, who owns the other half of the family fortune, so my hopes that she would commit suicide or work as a prostitute have been dashed. Well, life isn´t always fair. Looking forward to hearing from you.

Yours truly,

Gretchen

Silence. Seems this bait has ended untimely. Then all of a sudden:

It is merely an all caps scripted crap, but Gretchen is willing to respond (one day later):

Dear Dr. Asina,

what a pleasant surprise! After turning me down twice I thought you had dumped our short but heartwarming relationship.

Well, as you had not replied to my invitation I grasped the opportunity to accompany a friend of mine on a sailing trip from Phuket to Perth. We are ferrying a large luxury sailing yacht to her new owner - 2800 NM roughly in 3-4 weeks. The yacht is a real beauty, a Bavaria Vision 46, just 1 year old. We are now moored in the Keppel Marina in Singapore where we spent the last 2 days restocking our supplies. Just returned from a gorgeous seafood dinner in downtown Singapore and getting ready to sail at first light tomorrow.

My dear, your mails are still very confusing. You haven´t told me what you have for my poor Helmut and you also haven´t sent me any banking details, so I do not know where to send the money. Just be a darling and send me a short mail with all the details. I will take care of it when we are in Perth. We have a satellite uplink on board so I can read and send mails during the trip, although the transfer rate is a bit slow.

Looking forward to hearing from you soon.

Yours truly,

Gretchen Xxxxxxxxxx (Mrs.)

That´s it so far.

He'll get mad at you, ignore you for a while, and then one day he'll be back spamming your inbox with desperate attempts to get you to send money. I had an "assistant" of his running all over London trying to meet up with my character. It upset him to no end, he sent many an insulting emails, then went silent. About two weeks later he was back saying how sorry he was about the mix-up at the bank and telling me I wouldn't have to meet with officials, but he could get that all waived for a small fee.

This is going to be interesting...

Edit: Spot on, Rowan. 6 more mails in my spam box - he resent an old mail twice, 2 new ones twice and then a new all caps nonsense.

The following lad mail consists of 4 sentences:

Lad also realized that he had not told Gretchen where to send the money:
(also posted twice)

Quote:

Dear sir,

Reference to my email of yesterday today is the final deadline given to us by the authorities for completing this obligations for you. And i also want you to understand that i have already done my best by negotiating with the chairman of the real insurance bonding company, which they waived some part of the insurance fee from $320 to $150 so you should try as much as you could in paying the balance today to enable us complete this process immediately.So the only amount remaining is $150 which you have to raise and send immediately because I have really tried as a partner.

I have large responsibilities of my own which i am still owing as a family woman, now you have to quickly send the balance of $150 today otherwise, i leave this job and return back to my base in malaysia because i have tried my best for you.

As soon as we receive balance of the fee i will take your bank withdrawal items to the real bonding company and i will insure the bank instrument on your name for safety so that with the letter from the real bonding company i will take them to the DHL office and have them send the bank withdrawal items to your house address under 24 hours.

So send the balance $150 to the details of our protocol officer through Western Union money transfer and forward the details to me. The below is the receivers name once again: NAME: JACQUELINE XXXX ADDRESS: LONG BEACH, CALIFORNIA USA AMOUNT: $150

please call me for me explantions in respect to this: +1929224XXXX

I will be expecting the details of the fee immediately after sending the money as advised.

Thanks and God Bless You

Regards

Dr. Asina

The same mule again.

Unfortunately Gretchen is on a sailing trip to Perth and cannot do any WU business. Let´s see if she can get a bank account. And to solve the "Sir" thingie Gretchen will send a close up selfie of her boobs as bmp file (16.5 Mb) labelled "my passport".

Dear Dr. Asina,

thank you for your mail. Unfortunately we are currently cruising along the east coast of Sumatra and, weather permitting, our next stop will be Perth, Australia in 3-4 weeks. So there is no way to go to a Western Union office. If it helps i could offer you an online banking transfer as we have decent albeit slow internet connection via satellite in the morning and evening.
As you keep addressing me Sir despite my explanations that I am a woman I have attached a file to clarify this issue.

Yours truly,

Gretchen Xxxxxxxxxx (Mrs.)
