Who's Sam Njoku?

Three emails in quick succession from him:

Quote:

SAM NJOKU IS OUR AGENT.

Quote:

Good day Dear beneficiary Anita Pea, have you make the payment?

Quote:

Hi Anita How are you doing?

Me:

Quote:

I'm doing good thank you. Can you assure me that Sam Nj0ku is 100% trustworthy?

Him:

Quote:

yes he is 100% trustworthy, or maybe you can use our second unit
cashiers information to send the money who is Dickson Ani or you can
use SAM NJOKU Whom we can always see and hold responsibility if there
may be any issue.

I think I'm gonna ask who Dickson Ani is. He's probably going to answer "the second unit cashier", when that happens I'll say something along the lines of "what does the second unit cashier do? I want to know that Dicks0n is properly equipped to handle my money". This should delay him for a while, but if you have any better ideas please pitch in!

Also, this lad seems a bit hasty, so long delays should be much fun in this bait. All advice is appreciated!

I suspect that WU is not going to be available in your area but you can send the money from your bank to theirs.

And when he barks you'll ignore it and tell him that, regardless of the amount you're supposed to send, the minimum amount that your bank allows is $1500 and is that okay?

And then the transfer is going to fail because you messed up the account number.

And then the bank manager is going to cancel the transfer because he thinks it's a scam and you KNOW he's wrong but you need an account in the US to get it done.

And then you're going to need the name AND ADDRESS of the recipient along with the account, which you will pass to a mod.

And you're just getting started!

Posted: Tue Oct 18, 2016 3:03 am

Ooh, good idea! I'll be sure to use that once I'm done with asking who Dicks0n is.

As you were very quick in agreeing to make the payment you don't have a whole lot of wiggle room. This sort of format is set up to try and weed out time wasters by requiring a very small payment very early on - although it's possible to slow this down too by asking a few questions and letting the lad "convince you" that indeed, this deal has a big payment for your character.

I agree with lou that a switch from WU to bank transfer is a logical next step here, with plenty of room for time wasting. I suspect Dickson will be capable of handling international bank transfers....

How are you doing? i hope all is well with you.

Quote:

Hello Anita, how are you today? have you make the payment for your
first $5000 dollar?

Clingy, clingy, clingy...

Me:

Quote:

Who is Dickson Ani?

He sends this email twice:

Quote:

Mr.Dickson Ani, is our General Auditor and accountant.

He then edits it slightly and sends it again:

Quote:

Mr.Dickson Ani, is our General Auditor and accountant. and also our
general cashier.

He's reiterated Dickson Ani's job title, just like I thought would happen, so now I get to ask what a "general auditor" does.

As this bait is now underway, this has been moved to Main.

I ask what being a cashier entails:

Quote:

Yes but what does a General Auditor and Cashier do? I want to make sure he is equipped to handle my money.

Posted: Fri Oct 21, 2016 10:09 pm

As long s he doesn't twig from frustration, keep asking questions.

William:

Quote:

My dear, He is in charge of any foreign transaction and it's his duty
to assign any one to receive or send any money out of the country. he
is the Person i want you to send this money under his name he will
receive it directly and process your First $5000 dollar payment which

have at least receive like $250,000.00 dollar to $5000,000.00 dollar

will facilitate the Transaction.

He then sends this email twice:
