From the FAQs:

Quote:

Never educate the scammer. If the scammer has atrocious spelling, compliment him on his professional nature. If the scammer's passport looks like something a 5-year old created with dried noodles and crayons, be sure to be impressed. We don't want to help a scammer learn how to improve his approach. Please suppress your desire to show your superiority. Play into his game.

IMPORTANT: do not shut down lad email boxes by reporting them to Yahoo or Google or wherever to inform them of the scamming activity! In half the time it will take you to make a report, the lad can set up a new one. In fact, most scammers already have dozens of boxes in reserve. Closing a lad box could impact a potential law enforcement action, and we want potential victims to be able to find the scam email address posted on sites like scamwarners.com. Leave addresses alone.

Sending them that Avatar educates them. Pure and simple. It also connects your baiting activity to Eater.

If I could give one bit of advice it is that lads need to be constantly told that the money is on the way. Whatever excuse you need to make or whatever games you want to play is all for entertainment and delay purposes but if they think you still may send them the money you can still continue to "play" with them.

I have, of course, studied a lot of tips for stalling around here in the past few days, thanks for the great info! Oh, and I will never ever burn a lad again, I will keep on going for ever and playing the game, no matter of what he says... Basically this was one thing I did not get right in the beginning, I thought once the lad caught up with the fact I was baiting it was OK to drop the act, but no more! Very Happy

Part of the reason we continue is to build the lad's faith in your character. Wasting his time is a goal but if you ever want a trophy or set up for a safari, you need to make the lad get invested-that he truly believes the money is just a step away.

When I'm baiting many lads at the same time I don't take any notes.

I make sure they are all the same type of lad (in my case, loan lads). Their scripts are always the same so I can tell what stage they are at by looking at the quoted previous messages, and choose the appropriate boilerplate reply from my collection. It's like a production line, they end up following MY script so I really don't need to know which lad I'm talking to, they are all the same - I do a lot of phone baiting too and it's the same principle, let them talk for a bit and within seconds I know what stage the bait is at and I can respond confidently, even if I have 30 other lads on the go at the same time. My scripts end up with pork collection followed by various scripted excuses to collect further pork.

The bait usually fizzles out after a few piggies, but occasionally I get a particularly entertaining/determined lad so I go off-script and have some fun with him - it's not necessary to take notes for these 'special' lads either because by this point I've had a lot of dealings with him and I've got to know his personality and what's going on with the extended bait - eg. further methods/excuses for sending the money.

For now I'm going after their bank account details and running straight baits for the rest. If I can get the bank details then that is a successful bait for me, after that I go on dealying for as long as possible.

Maybe with time I'll try to aim higher, but this is good for me for now, learn to walk before trying to fly! Very Happy
