Welcome aboard, Snerf! Please keep us updated on how the bait is progressing.

And, since I'm the first one in, I'll ask the obligatory question: You are baiting safely, correct?

Oh yes, I have been baiting for quite some time ( few yrs), following the instructions on this site, getting ideas, etc.

My alias I go by is Dr John Zoidberg, just my first time posting something to this forum, as I had never seen a scam coming from this 'kind' of s scam.

I truly do enjoy frustrating these lads to no end.

Not once have I sent anything legitimate, sending pictures of a passport for instance (the cover) or just dll files.

Perfect. Then bait away, and enjoy.

You may want to consider signing up for a mentor, or just post here in the threads if you have any questions/need any help.

Again, welcome!

This guy has obviously not thought out his plan very well, maybe a bit of a rookie.

He says he wants to save me from Nigerian Scammers, and yet he insists I send a Money Gram / WU to Nigeria.

And I just keep telling him, WU/Money Gram refuses to let me send money to Nigeria, because of scammers, which he is trying to protect me from.

So I am trying to get a bank account out of him, and see where that goes.

I got some Banking information, for Wells Fargo.

Can this information be shown here, or should it be reported somewhere?

Thanks

Hi Snerf,

you can report that banking information to a moderator - their names are listed in green text. Just send one of them a PM and they'll be happy to report it for you.

Cheers,
Kitty
