I posted this in the "Hit Man" thread, but I thought it deserved it's own thread so others who aren't following that bait could see it. I suspect this doesn't happen very often!

Background: Theres a scammer who's been doing the "I'm a hit man hired to kill you, pay me $20,000 or you'll die" scam. He's being seriously mass-baited - read the thread, it's hilarious! Anyway, so I dropped him a response, he again demained that I start paying him off or my doom awaits, as his men are watching my every move.

Since so many others were having fun twisting this lad up, with choppers and hacked emails and other wild bait techniques, I thought I'd just see if he had any actual human traits. So I wrote back this:

Quote:

I don't understand why! What did I do?

Please, don't make me do this. I can only assume this must be happening because someone knows about the fund raiser we held for my daughter. You must be aware that my 10-year-old daughter is in the hospital with cancer. We're trying desperately to come up with enough money so she can get a bone marrow transplant, but we don't have enough yet. We only raised $15,000, and we need $40,000 for the operation. If she doesn't get it soon, she is going to die. She is my only child, my baby. I'm a single mom. I can't bear the thought of losing my little girl.

Who would be so cruel to do this to me? Who would want to see my little girl die? She has been going through chemotherapy and radiation, and she has lost all her hair, and she cries to me every night, Mommy why is God doing this? She wants to be a happy girl, she wants to go to school and play with the other kids. Instead she lies in this hospital bed, sick and throwing up. My heart breaks every day when I sit with her and hold her hand. She used to be such a happy little girl, playing soccer and going to birthday parties. Now she's so sick she can't even eat, and it hurts her skin for me to even hug her. She's just a little girl!

Please sir, tell your men to leave us alone. My baby might only have a short while to live. If you take my money, she'll die for sure. If you do that, you might as well kill me anyway, because I won't have a reason to live.

Are you really going to make me do this??

I just got this back:

Call me cynical, but I will NOT be surprised if he asks for money in the near future.

Is that the same IP that the lad has been using from the other emails?

Posted: Wed Jun 06, 2007 6:11 pm

Here's his IP: 213.255.199.40

Lemme go back in the thread and see if it's the same as the others...

Edit - yup, it's the same IP that appears in an email from the lad in the hit man thread from many days ago.

Thanks, Cachuma Very Happy

In that case I'm with JoJo....If you dig back I think that you'll find he has used a variation of the 'come clean' modality before.

Seems he has a conscience on occasion........

Then goes right back to pay me mode.......

Dear Mr. Cross ,

I am confused by your E-Mail and I am desperate . I was shocked to read your E-Mail as I have just checked into a five star hotel in an undisclosed location . I hope your men or the police did not follow me . Sir I must inform you that I took the three thousand from the special offering from Sunday Mass and I am ashamed to tell you that I have robbed the church safe of close to 25,000 dollars. Those funds were earmarked for the new orphanage we were building . I have hit my knees and asked for forgiveness but I do not hear God speaking to me anymore!

B. Dover

Now he wants to give the money to the poor orphans personally.......

Wow, what a scum. Well, the bottom line is, he could have kept saying that he was hired to kill me, since I clearly believed his story. But instead he actually told me he's a Nigerian scammer. Not sure how he can try to get money out of me now. But if he does, I'll surely let you know!

Posted: Wed Jun 06, 2007 6:48 pm

It would be immature to toot my own horn... but who said I am mature. Wink

He will claim he has seen the error of his ways, blah, blah, blah. He just needs money to get started on the right track... Rolling Eyes

Posted: Wed Jun 06, 2007 6:52 pm

I've got the sick 10-yr-old writing him now, asking him if he wants to write and be her pen pal, for as long as she's got left to live. Let's see if he bites. And if he does, and tries to get money, I'm going to quit my job and devote myself full time to baiting, to stop these heartless animals.

Well...maybe that last bit is hyperbole...but you know what I mean! Wink

^^^

maybe youcan get the mugu to danate money to a real organization for cancer research. What a trophy that would be.

Sorry to be a killjoy, but if you try doing what Rumbero suggested, please don't post it here- getting a lad to donate to charities still falls under the 'cashbaiting' clause.

Posted: Wed Jun 06, 2007 9:08 pm

Nope, no cashbaiting here, for charity or otherwise. Although it's a nice idea. No, I just wanna see if the lad has a heart. Probably not.

Posted: Wed Jun 06, 2007 9:46 pm

Sounds like he did that to sabotage the other lad. He probably thinks that someone was trying to steal his "mugu". His mentality was "If I can't have him, you can't have him." Black heart doesn't turn red so easily.

Posted: Wed Jun 06, 2007 9:59 pm

I refuse to lose faith in human nature. Not meaning to be a killjoy myself, and I am with you all baiting to the death. But just because they scam, doesn't mean we can make a sweeping generalisation that every scammer is bad through to to their selfish bones. You might find some with compassion, and I hope Cachuma that you find this with your scumbag.

I've tested, and so far the results in human compassion have been negative, I dont give up hope though. I would love nothing more than to make these greedy selfish twats think about what they are doing, and stop.
