As Bort and I wrap up our bait of Ozzy, what better to replace him with than another despicable orphanage lad?

I was given Martin's email address, and I poked him to start things off:

Quote:

I read your email about your orphanage and I want to know how I can help. Please tell me more.

Martin responded:

Quote:

The name of our Orphanage home is and for the needy. We are situated at <snip>

We are 2 years and half now and have 64 Children in our Home. We need help from People like you to run this Orphanage home and will very much appreciate your donation for the up keep of the Children and less privilege people in this Home.

Roger wants to help:

Quote:

I very much want to help your orphanage. When I think of those poor children with no families, it makes me very sad. I will make a donation, how much do you need?

Also, is your orphanage willing to accept donations from a Church? Maybe I could ask my pastor if we can raise money from our parish, as part of our charity drive for the holidays. Is that ok with you?

The lad is fine with that:

Quote:

Thanks for your kind email, May God Bless you as you remember this poor Children.

Any amount you give us will be highly welcome by us, no amount is too small for this charity work.

We do receive donation from Churches, tell your pastor about us. we will receive what ever is giving to us.

Please give me your telephone number so that i can call you.

Roger offers to give his email to the pastor:

Quote:

I will make a donation of $500 to your orphanage. How should I send it to you?

I will also tell my pastor about your charity. My Church is called the Church of the Old Gods and it is in Jacksonville Florida. Is it ok if I give him your email address too?

The lad wanted Western Union, but I gave him the usual story that Roger is banned from there. The lad has asked for Money Gram instead, and that is where I am for now.

Bort has been given his email address, and will be contacting him as the pastor from the Church of the Old Gods. We're hoping to get this lad on the hook long term, just like Ozzy.

He operates the best Ophanage in town but lacked the will necessary to join my faith. Good luck

He also lacks the photoshop skills to produce a convincing sign for the building. He couldn't have done worse by hand lettring it on a picture then scanning it.

Reverend Brad from the Church of the Old Gods contacts Martin:

Reverend Brad wrote:

My dearest Martin M.,

Please allow me to introduct myself. My name is Reverend Brad W., Annointed Priest of the Old Gods, and I am the pastor of your colleague Mr. Roger Bartlett's parish. I grew up in Australia, but have been living in the United State for the last five years. Roger and myself, along with the rest of our congregation, are followers of The Church of the Old Gods, a most ancient and holy denomination of Christian belief.

I am contacting you on the behalf of Roger, who has told me of your situation and your need for further funds. Every year, the Church of the Old Gods provides sponsorship grants to a number of worthy people and organisations. The plight of your orphanage is just the sort of Christian cause our grants are intended to support.

Now, I must advice you that every year we get many applicants for grants and only only have enough funds to assist some of them. There are several different factors which guide the Church Elders' judgement in the decision process, including the need of the applicants, the strength of their faith in the Old Gods, and their record of devotion and loyalty to the Church of the Old Gods. Prove this to the Church Elders, and I imagine you will be a very strong contender for a grant.

This fundraising effort we are planning to hold for you will be a great way for you to prove your devotion. If you play your part and all turns out to be a success, then I shall provide the Church Elders with a glowing letter of recommendation during their consideration of sponsorship grants.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Thank you,
And may the Gods bless you,
Reverend Brad W.

Ten hours later, Martin replies.

My dearest Brother Martin,

Brother Roger and myself have been busy discussing this very question. To begin with, we've decided that - with your permission - the best course of action would be for our parish to hold a bake sale intended to benefit your orphanage. In the past, we at the Jacksonville Parish have had much success raising funds for worthy individuals through bake sales and other community events. The good folk of Jacksonville have a tremendous community spirit and love of helping the less fortunate, and I'm confident many would turn up for this fundraising effort as well.

In the long term, I would recommend to you that you consider applying for Official Membership in the CotOG. This process takes some time, so we would be best to focus on the bake sale for now to ensure some funds are coming your way very soon, but upon completing your membership you will be eligible for a sponsorship grant ranging from $20,000.00 USD to $15,000,000.00 USD, depending on the type of membership applied for.

(snip section copy and pasted from CotOG stuff I mass-mail out to lots of lads... basically contains WTTE of "the application process involves some photos and forms and phone calls, members usually find this very enjoyable, I hope you do as well")

Thank you,
And may the Gods bless you
Reverend Brad

Roger tells the lad he sent the money by MG:

Quote:

I sent the money to you by Money Gram today. Please let me know when you pick it. I want to know how the orphans in your home feel when they find out I have donated money for their futures.

Also, did my pastor contact you about possibly doing a bake sale to raise money for your orphanage? There is a lot of excitement here about doing a bake sale for you, and I wanted to get your thoughts on it. Is that something your interested in too?

But the lad tells Roger that he forgot the transfer information:

Quote:

Thanks for your email, you said that you sent money to us by Money GRAM, We did not receive any money because you did not sent to us your sending information, like the MTCN Number, Name and address of sender, Question and answer and the amount you sent.

Send us the above information for us to pick up the money.

Your Rev. send us email about the Bake and we are working on it right now and will get back to him very soon.

Roger is confused, as usual:

Quote:

What is an MTCN number? I have never heard that term before. I also don't know what you mean by question and answer. As for the amount, I sent $500 to you like I said I would.

I will speak to my pastor about organizing the bake sale. I am sure we can do it and raise a lot of money for your orphans.

What sort of recipes do you think we should have at the bake sale? As a charity, I'm sure you have a lot of experience with this and you can help us pick recipes.

The lad switches to all caps and tells Roger about MG transfers:

Quote:

IF YOU ARE VERY SURE YOU SEND THE MONEY BY MONEY GRAM, THEN THEY MUST HAVE GIVING YOU THE RECEIPT CONFIRMING THAT YOU SEND MONEY AND IN THAT RECEIPT YOU WILL FIND THIS MTCN NUMBERS.

SECONDLY, YOU CANNOT SEND MONEY WITHOUT THEM ASKING YOU FOR QUESTION AND ANSWER FOR SECURITY REASON.

SDEND THIS INFORMATION IF ACTUALLY YOU SEND THE MONEY.

Roger will reply tomorrow.

Posted: Thu Oct 16, 2014 9:04 pm

Roger is indignant that Martin would accuse him of not sending the money:

Quote:

What do you mean "if I sent the money"? Of course I sent the money! I am a man of the Old Gods and my virtue is pure. I would not lie about donations to an orphanage. I am insulted that you would think that about me.

The Clark at Money Gram didn't give me a receipt, but I will go back and ask for one so that I can give you the transfer number.

Martin apologizes:

Quote:

I am very sorry if my answer to your email is offensive. But you supposed to know that we cannot get the money without those information from you as the sender.

We are still waiting for the information.

And he will wait a bit longer. Twisted Evil

Roger sends the reference number:

Quote:

I went back to Money Gram and the clark gave me the reference number. It is 376425883.

Please go pick the money, and let me know when you received it.

That number has 9 digits.

Posted: Tue Oct 21, 2014 10:07 pm

Martin tells Roger the MTCN has the wrong number of digits:

Quote:

You should please tell who ever give you this number that the number is not correct. The number is supposed to be 10 digits and not nine.

Unfortunately, he's still wrong. Money Gram transfer numbers have 8 digits. But Roger doesn't know that:

Quote:

Oh, I didn't know that. I will go back to the Money Gram office today and ask them for the correct number. I am sorry this is taking so long.

Roger comes back from Money Gram even more confused:

Quote:

I went back to the Money Gram office and the clark told me that they don't have 10 digits in their reference numbers. Now I am very confused. Are you sure there are 10 digits?

I just love Roger. Such a well-meaning old guy! Very Happy

Posted: Wed Oct 22, 2014 11:51 pm

Martin gets the number of digits mixed up between MG and WU:

Quote:

MONEY GRAM IS 10 DIGITS WHILE WESTERN UNION IS 8 DIGITS. (it's really the other way around) TELL HER TO GIVE YOU OTHER INFORMATION LIKE THE TEXT QUESTION AND ANSWER IF SHE IS VERY SURE SHE SEND THE MONEY.

Roger agrees to go ask:

Quote:

I will go back today and ask the Clark about the text questions. But are you sure that Money Gram has 10 digits? The Clark seemed very sure that it does not and now I am very confused.

Please, if you are just joking with me and pretending like you did not already pick the money. I want to donate to your orphans, not play games with you.

Roger comes back from Money Gram confused again:

Quote:

I went back to Money Gram and asked the clark that was there today about the reference number digits and he said that Money Gram definitely does not have 10 digits reference numbers. They only have 8 digits reference numbers. Are you sure Money Gram has 10 digits? Maybe they do it different where you are? I don't know.

Anyway, I asked him to look up the transfer so I could get the correct reference number. I gave him my name as the sender and your name as the receiver, but he said he couldn't find my transfer in the system. He said that maybe the clark who sent it for me did something different, and I should come back tomorrow to ask him personally. So that is what I will do, ok?

Oh no, what could possibly have gone wrong? Very Happy

Posted: Fri Oct 24, 2014 1:46 am

Martin begrudgingly concedes his mistake:

Quote:

SHE MIGHT BE RIGHT, BUT EVEN AT THAT THE NUMBERS YOU GAVE ME IS 9 DIGITS AND NOT 8 DIGITS.

TELL THEM TO GIVE YOU THE TRANSFER RECEIPT OF THAT VERY TRANSFER, THEN YOU WILL FIND ALL I AM TELLING YOU INSIDE IT.

Roger went back to MG and got the number:

Quote:

I went back to the Money Gram office today, and the clark who I sent the money with was there. I asked him for the payment slip and he said he couldn't give me one. Then I asked him for the proper number and he gave it to me: 37642583

Is that all you need to pick up the money?

Let's see how long it takes this lad to get utterly fraudstrated with Roger.

Please PM me his e-mail address. I have a ton of resources from The Lord Shall Provide and The Lord's Blessing orphanage homes to recycle. I hate orphanage scammers.

Posted: Sun Oct 26, 2014 3:57 pm

The lad asks for the test question and answer:

Quote:

THANK FOR YOUR UPDATE, THERE IS NO OTHER THING EXCEPT THE TEXT QUESTION AND ANSWER ONLY.

Roger will ask about that tomorrow:

Quote:

Ok, I will go back to the Money Gram office tomorrow and ask them what the text question and answer are.

By the way, have you talked to my pastor about the bake sale? Do you have any ideas for recipes we can use for the fundraiser?

Merv, I've sent you a PM.

Posted: Mon Oct 27, 2014 9:35 pm

Roger comes back from the MG office with a test question that is not what the lad expected:

Quote:

I went back to the Money Gram office and I asked the Clark what the text question is. He said I didn't give him one when I sent the money, so he used his own. He said he told it to me, but I thought he was asking me the question! I didn't realize that it was something you need to pick the money.

Anyway, the text question is Do you support gay marriage? Please go pick the money and let me know when you have done it. I really want to get started planning our bake sale.

Hopefully that will confuse and embarrass the lad at the MG office.

Posted: Mon Oct 27, 2014 9:46 pm

Great torment job! I can just feel the rant building in the lad.

I'd like to proffer one of my favorites Q&A's:

Quote:

q: You again?
a: Me again!

Right in line with your "He said he told it to me, but I thought he was asking me the question!" and sure to get entertainment from the agent when the lad asks it in person...

Posted: Tue Oct 28, 2014 10:35 pm

Martin goes to the MG office and finds out the transfer isn't there:

Quote:

I WAS AT MONEY GRAM OFFICE TODAY AND WAS TOLD THAT NO MONEY WAS SENT TO ME BY YOU.

Roger is confused, and reconfirms the details of the transfer for Martin:

Quote:

What do you mean no money was sent? I sent the money just like you asked for. Are you sure you got the details of the transfer correct? Here is what I sent:

Sender: Roger Bartlett
Reciver: (Martin)
Amount: $500
Reference Number: 37642583
Text Question: Do you support gay marriage?
Text Answer: Yes

I sent it right to your name so there would be no confusion, and I gave the reference number correctly with 8 digits this time. I will go to the Money Gram office and ask the clark what is going on, because I am very confused why you say I didn't send the money when I know I did.

Of course, the lad was using a different receiver name, and Roger (being Roger) got confused and sent it to the fake name he is using instead. Very Happy

Posted: Wed Oct 29, 2014 9:14 pm

Martin realizes Roger's error:

Quote:

KINDLY GO AND ASK THEM WHY I DID NOT SEE THE MONEY, BUT I DID NOT ASK YOU TO SEND WITH MY NAME.

I GAVE YOU THIS NAME AS A RECEIVER AND OUR TREASURER: EMMA AYO. TELL THEM TO CHANGE THE RECEIVERS NAME TO THE NAME. EMMA AYO,
ADDRESS: LAGOS NIGERIA.

I AWAIT YOUR IMMEDIATE REPLY.

Roger doesn't understand why he needs to send it to Emma:

Quote:

I don't understand. Why does the money gram transfer need to be sent with the name of this Emma Ayo person? I thought it would be much easier if I just sent the money directly to you under your name.

Martin gets suspicious:

Quote:

PLEASE STOP ALL THIS TRICKS, YOU DID NOT SEND ANY MONEY, I PERSONALLY WENT TO MONEY GRAM OFFICE TODAY AND WAS TOLD THAT YOU ARE JUST PLAYING.

YOU SHOULD UNDERSTAND THAT THIS IS FOR ORPHANAGE AND NOT FOR ME DIRECT.

Roger insists that he is not playing any tricks:

Quote:

I am not playing any tricks. I don't understand why you did not receive the money I sent. I am going to go back to Money Gram today to find out what happened. We need to get to the bottom of what happened to my donation.

I would never play tricks on sending money to orphans. I'm a pious Gods-fearing man of the Old Gods and a man of the Church. I am very hurt and insulted that you would accuse me of playing tricks on the poor little children, and I want you to apologize.

I am doing my best to send you the donation, but there must be some problem with the Money Gram. I will find out what happened and make it right.

Roger comes back from Money Gram very upset:

Quote:

I just got back from the Money Gram office and I want you to know that they are all criminals! I went to ask why you were not able to pick the money, and that same Clark told me I never sent any money, which is a complete lie!

When I told him that I did send it with him, and that you hadn't received the money, he told me I had never sent any money by Money Gram and that he did not know me. When I inserted that I had sent money and he was lying, do you know what that bastard said? He just smiled and said "prove it".

And here's the worst part: I can't prove that he stole my money, because I don't have a recipe, and the other Money Gram Clark I talked to last time said the transfer is not on their computer system. I can't believe this is happening! Can you believe the nerve of that bastard to steal my money and lie right to my face?

Martin, I have been cheated and I am very upset because I knew the donation was for the orphans. What should I do to get my money back from those criminals at Money Gram and send you the donation? Please help me.

Next we go for bank accounts.

Posted: Tue Nov 04, 2014 4:13 am

Martin tells Roger that it is his fault:

Quote:

THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT BECAUSE IT IS ALL YOUR FAULT. HOW CAN YOU SEND MONEY WITHOUT COLLECTING RECEIPT?

I KNOW FROM THE ON SET THAT THE MONEY WAS NOT SENT EITHER BY YOU OR MONEY GRAM AGENT.

I AM NOT EVEN SURE OF ALL THIS STORIES YOU ARE TELLING IS TRUTH, PLEASE IF YOU KNOW YOU ARE NOT READY TO DONATE TO OUR ORPHANAGE HOME, KINDLY STOP DECEIVING US AND MAKING US TO GO TO MONEY GRAM OFFICE.

THERE ARE MANY OTHER WAYS TO SEND MONEY HERE, LIKE RIA, MONEY EXPRESS AND OTHERS.

THANKS.

Well, that sort of attitude simply won't do. Roger will respond tomorrow.

Posted: Wed Nov 05, 2014 3:49 am

Roger asks for a bank account:

Quote:

Why would I be trying to deceive you? I know this money is for poor orphans and it would be very heartless of me to play games about sending a donation for them. I am not pleased that you keep telling me I did not send the money even though I knew I tried and that wicked man at Money Gram stole the money. This is not my fault that you did not received the money.

Please, I just want to make this donation and raise even more money for your orphanage through my Church charity. I am not familiar with those other money transfers you mentioned, and I am worried that the money will get stolen again. Can we just do it through my bank instead? A bank transfer would be easier, and safer too.
