I was minding my own business last night waiting for one of my instant mugus to make his nightly appearance when all hell broke loose. This is one of about 5 Y! lads I had on the go last night

kn_shabby: Hi there...how are you?
comcircle: fine thank u
kn_shabby: What can I do for you today?
comcircle: i want to learn more about my business an maybe go into other areas
kn_shabby: which business is that?
comcircle: at the moment i install satellite tv system but i want to go into telecom (he forgot to mention that he's also a part time lad and full time mugu!)
kn_shabby: ok - where are you atm? what country?
comcircle: i am in nigeria (No surprises there!)
kn_shabby: so why do you want to get into telecom?
kn_shabby: I'm in the US
comcircle: i am a nigerian
kn_shabby: You've already mentioned that
comcircle: what can you do for me (I was severely tempted to take this to another level  )
kn_shabby: I'm not sure..what would you like me to do?
comcircle: in nigerian telecommunication system, there what is called the E1 line which carries telecom traffic from overseas i hope to go into that line of business, but i need information on the type of equipments to acquire, where i can get them cheap ,and someone with technical ability (Ahh. Now we come to the meat of the scam! Why he chose me is something I'll wonder about until my dying days!)
kn_shabby: Ahh...You'll need switches and routers and the like...Hard to find
kn_shabby: As for technical ability, I might be able to find someone who can help, but I might also be able to get the equipment for you
comcircle: do you know anything about telecom
kn_shabby: A little, but I'm not an engineer (well I know how to use a phone - does that count?)
comcircle: can you help get information
kn_shabby: I probably can. What kind do you need?
comcircle: i honestly dont know i am only interested in the business cos its new and lucrative in nigeria
kn_shabby: So do you have any equipment at all?
comcircle: what i know is that the national telecommunication company issues out the lines to ISP for an ammount, but the equipment to carry the trafic i dont know
kn_shabby: I'm not an engineer, but I know a few to tell you that you'll need routers, switches and other equipment. As I've already mentioned, I can probably source that for you, but I need to know how it can be sent
comcircle: they can be shipped, but i think wehave not gotten to that stage yet cos the issue of technical knowhow must be discussed and a comprehensive bronchure will be sent so i can know if it will work with the nigerian system, then money (Again, I was tempted to make a comment about coconuts, trained monkeys and soup cans with bits of string between them)
kn_shabby: So you want me to send a brochure? (After all, I have all kinds of telecom equipment brochures just strewn around here!  )
kn_shabby: I'll see if I can find one. It may take a day or two to locate
comcircle: please ill appreciate that
kn_shabby: Do you have an email address I can send it to?
comcircle: yes comcircle @yahoo.com
kn_shabby: ok. I'll go looking for it and get back to you when I have it.
comcircle: can i count on you (Why not? Every other mugu thinks they can!)
kn_shabby: Of course!
comcircle: what ur mail add so i can keep in touch with u
kn_shabby: my email is <not telling>
kn_shabby: Do you have a phone no?
comcircle: my cell no is 08033120660 but youll need to add the country code 234
kn_shabby: OK. I'm gonna have to get going...Got a lot of customers to deal with
comcircle: ok ill keep in touch
kn_shabby: OK. I'll call later on, or I'll email with more information
comcircle: thanks
kn_shabby: ok bye!
comcircle: its been nice chating with u
kn_shabby: likewise |
This is another fine mess I've got myself into Still, I'll have fun making up pretend equipment. When will mugus learn not to ask me technical questions? |
