Shame about the chromium chloride crystals: I did check 'em out and they are really pretty Crying or Very sad

Great job so far reviving this bait! I've been trying to order chromium chloride crystals from some gold lads (which are real, just not what the lad is typically asked about), and so far I have been greeted with silence and confusion. I am guessing part of it is that since I asked for gemstones, it already pushed the lads too far off script. If you need any help with these lads, let me know; this looks like too much fun to ignore. As for playing a lad, it isn't too hard; just use the terms "maga", "mugu," "oga," and maybe some other things (mention how once your dollar was chopped), and you should sound convincing enough. The nice thing is that the more you try to talk to lads in pidgin, the more phrases you can pick up from them.

I think, the dane has done some dilithium baits, aswell as kryptonite baits.

it's especially funny, since the lads will start searching on geology-websites, just to get everything right (for the certificate), and geologists have added both materials to their databases, with humorous entries about the use.

that leads to hillarious results.

and then there was a very special lad: gold lad who actually sent mica... Very Happy

sadly, the pics are gone.

I've seen some of those baits a long time ago. I'm actually tempted just to mass-mail a bunch of lads requesting suppliers for either chromium chloride or cerulean gold. Even if I don't email gold lads, there are sure to be a few greedy ones who take the bait. The more lads who believe blue gold is real, or that chromium chloride crystals are a valuable commodity, the more their scripts will deteriorate and the more fun they will be.

Currently got Emmanuel Kufuo on the go.

My company, 'Quasimodo Quartz' is extremely interested in this new and exciting mineral! Will make my first ever bait thread if this turns out well but so far these mineral lads are thirsty and quite promising it seems.

Just posting this to say thanks for the emails Astarte. I am really excited to see if you can get a damn good safari off this with some persistence. Good luck!

^^@PW Omg you're so welcome! Very Happy

So! I decided to just go for, and sent this email from my brand-new lad-character, Yakov, to some gold lads! Yakov is from Poland. His English is still very ill, but he's only on week six of continuing-education english class at the rec center:

Quote:

Hello are you,

You are scammer, myself I am aswell. I see you are make believe to sell gold, no? As I am in need a friend of gold for to help with my scam. Maybe a mugu tell to you of and ask for some? is to be next big thing, and I am make believe to sell to them. Although, all persons no that mines for gold they are in Africa, not my house Poland. Also, I am lerning English now, but English is still very ill Sad

So need friend who may be in Africa with English more well than myself for that to be well. You will help for 50/50 split?

-Yakov

Imagine my delight when good ol' responded! Suzette had previously corresponded with Emmanuel, but he'd just said he wasn't familiar with the stuff, and didn't respond when Suzette encouraged him to "check again," or connect her with someone who had it for a "generous finder's fee."

Emmanuel:

Quote:

Yes we can work together, i even have a client who ask me that she is looking for , Wink

but i told her that i don't have seller but she said that if i get seller i should let her know,

So give me the detail how it work, we can collaborate together

Yakov:

Quote:

Oh is easy! For your woman, have you foto of yourself and gold bars for to show to your customers? You may paint those bars lightly with blue! She may hear to look like gold with some parts blue under light, but no people are having foto of , so will look true for her.

Later, I am make believe to be mining company owner, and if you want you may make believe to be man from my mine of . I tell mugus who want you will email them, and put you guys together. I no things of if they give you questions you not no, so tell me them. Then you do your thing and we split monies 50/50!
Is well?

-Yakov

And now we wait Smile

Thanks again to @RH for the idea!

Well, well done! Congratulations! clapping

Posted: Tue Jan 02, 2018 6:32 pm

The lad that Astarte introduced me to dropped me after he realized that he needed to fake pictures of , although another gold lad who I contacted a while ago responded to me and said that they had cerulean gold. Let's see what happens now...

Any advice for finding gold/mineral/mining lads? I have quite a good character, however they seem remarkably hard to find...! It's all about cash these days Rolling Eyes

Master Baiter Joined: 26 Apr 2015 Posts: 239

Great baiting, this is fun to read, their insistance on having clients visit them with no up front fee continues to give me the feeling these guys are really dangerous, could be a ruse to get foreigners over there and hold them hostage for ransom purposes or possibly kill them

Bait them hard and make them suffer Twisted Evil

Posted: Wed Jan 03, 2018 10:38 pm

^^Whoa! Is this for real what they do?? I'd sort of been giving these lads the relative benefit of the doubt, and figured they just duped rich people into coming all the way over to a foreign country so they'd feel extra invested in going through with it, put on a high-production-value show of showing them real gold, then have them pay a "shipping fee" for gold they'll never get. But setting up an entire fake office did seem like a lot of work, and opens them up to a whole new set of things that could go wrong...

I haven't been able to find anything on the internet about what they actually do if someone does come and visit them Confused

Does Anyone know of any accounts of victims visiting gold scammers? I'm really wondering now...

Posted: Wed Jan 03, 2018 10:47 pm

^^@Partyworm I just search "gold selling" "gold dealer" or "mining" on scamwarners.com Not all of the email addresses are still active, but I have gotten a good amount of responses from lads who's email were posted there even a couple months back...

essentially yes. the south africans are known to lure people to SA and then rob them and potentially kill them.

west africany may rob, but they usually aren't that violent.

but there are scammer gangs, who lure people to dubai, which is easily accessible, because it became one of the worlds largest flight hubs, and they'll show a sample of ~2 kg of real gold, they even let the victim take some gold as a sample... after that, the victim is massively hooked and will do everything and pay virtually any amount of money the lads ask for.

(it's easier to buy 70kg of gold flakes, when the the seller shows that he has access to that stuff).

The one who Astarte and I are talking to right now is based in Mali, and wants me to come visit. I've seen stories here and elsewhere about it. The Songhai empire in Mali a few hundred years ago was extremely well known for its gold trade, so there is a history of gold in the region. My hope is that I get a video of blue gold bars, and then I can start planning my trip there. If I can get him to meet me in Timbuktu instead of Bamako, it may be possible to get a safari out of him.

Posted: Fri Jan 19, 2018 6:19 pm

Any update? This has really piqued my interest. You guys are doing a great job, IMO.

Posted: Sat Jan 20, 2018 3:40 am

I don't think we've heard anything from the lads. I've been busy with the co-bait with Birlic recently, but I may try to revive this modality at some point.

Posted: Sat Jan 20, 2018 4:36 am

did did talk to the lad about painting the gold bars blue and making a new video. Hasn't gotten any word in awhile from the lad that @MrMystery314 and I are baiting, though. But I do have some correspondence I might post later, on that front.

In the meantime, here's a adventure that Suzette had today...

The original email:

Quote:

Dear Sir/Ma

I am writing to you at this time to advertise the availability of our main product, gold in bulk quantities. we are prepared to provide quantities of up to 400 kilograms of 22 karat gold monthly.

Following is information concerning our product:

Commodities :
Quality of Au Gold Bar : 22+ carats
Purity of Au Gold Bar :- 96.7%
Quantity of Gold Bars : 1000kg
Price Gold Bar : $ 26,000 per kg

Please check on our website for more details:

Our firm is in possession of the Gold Export Certificate issued by the Government of the Republic of Benin necessary to export gold from Republic of Benin, thus we can provide service to any part of the world.

We are prepared to offer the quantity of gold required to the Buyer [or their representative] upon their arrival here in Benin. After the Buyer has confirmed the quantity and the quality of the gold with their refinery, and is satisfied, only then will we accept payment, by bank transfer, from the Buyer to us. Further, we currently seek outside-based serious investors on a partnership basis in order to increase our production capacity. If you are interested in this proposal, or have any further questions, kindly reply this email.

Looking forward to doing business with you.

Yours truly,

Jane
Gold Inc.

Suzette responded with her usual boilerplate.

Lad:

Quote:

Hi Suzette,

We are highly informed when it comes to gold as we also deal with local minners over here, we have in stock (yaaaaay!!! Very Happy

) unfortunately we have not been having high demand of it. It will be our pleasure to work with you and supplied you as many as you demand and we believe this will make you recommed our company to other good buyers.

kindly let us know how many of it you will like to order and we will procceed to supply you as soon as possible.

Thank You
KGI

Suzette:

Quote:

Well, I'm about to make your day: we wish to purchase ALL the that you currently have on hand, and possibly any that you unearth in the future. We understand that this may seem like a major commitment, but if we do decide to do business with you, are prepared to make it more than worth your while, offering $52,251 USD per kilo on wholesale orders.

Our ultimate aim is to corner the market as much as possible while we can on this new substance, keeping as much as possible out of our competitor's hands and controlling the market as much as possible, as long as we have this unique opportunity with such an emergent commodity!

Do let me know exactly how much you currently have on hand, and approximately how much your mine is predicted to yield in the future. Then we can commence with the formalities and get the ball rolling!

Sincerely,
Suzette

Lad:

Quote:

we only Have 108 KG in stock at the moment. Its currently 1:17 am here. we might be able to get you more in the morning from our local refiner.

Lets us know how to proceed on this business as we are willing to supply you all ASAP

Suzette:

Quote:

That will do!
Before we can proceed with the good stuff, I will need to know a little more about your setup, just routine stuff to make sure we won't have any liabilities on our hands. First off, how does your mine operate, and what specific techniques and equipment to you use to extract the gold?

Sincerely,
Suzette

The lad then hit Suzette up on gchat:

Quote:

Lad: Hello

Suzette: Hello
Care to tell me a little about your mine's setup?

Lad: Please look up our website for more details:
We usually supplied through a Cargo service here and they deliver within 5
working days. however we do not ship out goods till payment is been
confirmed due to our passed experience.

Suzette: Your site is lovely! You simply *must* tell me the name of your copywriter: they have an absolutely magical way with words! (Their site actually is very well written! I think a bunch of the info is BS, their copywriter wrote it beautifully, and I hope they will someday use their talents for good instead of wasting it on lowlife scammers...)
I have a few remaining questions:

Lad: do you have a website too?
will like to know where you from too

Suzette: First question, I noticed a photo on your home page of one of your mine tunnels, with a couple of your mining carts: can you tell me more about those carts you use? I'm not sure if I am familiar with that particular make of mining cart, and how they operate...

Lad: well it was locally build and make it easier to bring out some big stone which has treasures in it. we have a special machine for that

Suzette: Fascenating! I don't think I've ever had the pleasure of working with a client who did their own cart making in-house! Do you have any pictures of this cart making process?

Lad: not at the moment
why not come done here to see things your self
maybe you can visit some days and you might decide to be one of our investor.
question
where does your business operate?

Suzette: Once I have all the information I need, I certainly intend to come down and see your place for myself!
My next question is, what type of gold refining process to you employ?

Lad: carbon adsorption process
where are you from?

Suzette: And your ore smelting process?

Lad: yes Rolling Eyes

Suzette: What smelting techniques do you employ?

Lad: melting furnace
melt 1kg -8kg in 3 minutes

Suzette: Well of course you use a melting furnace, silly! But which make of melting furnace?

(a pause, as the lad googled "smelting furnace brands")

Lad:
would you tell me about you, your business?
how long have you been into the business?

Suzette: Oh yes, I am familiar with that brand...
My company, , has been family owned for three generations.

Lad: in what country?

Suzette: My grandfather came from a line of French jewelers, and immigrated to America in 1957 to strike out on his own with a more innovative and dynamic type of business model. Once his company, , became a success, it merged with his family's company back in france, , in 1964, to form our company today, . Today, I run the business from up here in Alaska, but we have several offices and distribution plants in both the US and France. We retain a low profile to the general public outside of our industry community, and a small, minimally sized, family-run feel, while supplying wholesale fine jewelry and jewelry components to retail suppliers world-wide.
Now, one more question about your smelting process: what chemical do you employ in order to coagulate the gold?

Lad: guess you are planing to start Refining some day

Suzette: Oh no, we leave the dirty refining work to the mines and refineries, and just make pretty jewelry with the metal when it's done 😉
So, which coagulating chemicals do you use for smelting?

Lad: oh okay
i won't know. i am an employee people in Factory would be able to answer that (# Confused

Syntax)
or probably when my boss come in AM
but i have seen Flocculation and coagulation treatment

Suzette: Well, do put me in touch with the people with information on your coagulation process: I am interested to know!

Lad: its hydrated lime and magnesium carbonate
just check our stpre here
store

Suzette: You said you work in the factory? Tell me more about that.

Lad: i do not work in the factory
where the smelting process take place is often regards as factory here.

Suzette: Do you have any pictures from the factory right now?

Lad: there are some on our website
might get you more in the morning
lets get straight to business
are you still ordering our ?

Suzette: I didn't see any clear pictures of the factory equipment itself. If you could get me some pictures of that, it would be wonderful!

Lad: thats not a problem

Suzette: Wonderful!
I know, all this boring admin and liability assurance stuff seems like it takes forever, but we will be in business soon enough! 😉

Lad: Alright

Suzette: Just get those pictures of the factory equipment to me in the morning, and then I just need two more tiny things, and the real fun can begin: first, my meteorologists are going to want to see a picture of the spot where the Cerulean Gold was unearthed. If you can be in the picture aswell, what would be ideal. Next, just a picture of one of the samples you've already unearthed. It could be in bullion form, or just unrefined ore. Again, it would be best if you could be in the picture as well.
After that, we may discuss my visit to your mine!

Lad: okay i will discuss all you said with my boss in the morning and get back to you.
Thank You for your time.

Suzette: Wonderful! I look forward to hearing from you in the morning. Thank you for your time as well!

Lad: you are welcome.

Until the morrow, then. Fingers crossed as heck! Mr. Green

Posted: Sat Jan 20, 2018 3:26 pm

Sounds good! Let me know if you need my assistance again, although it seems like you have refined this modality to the point where you don't need additional help. Hopefully this lad will find pictures of blue gold and not just random plates and whatnot, which show up if you Google "cerulean gold".

Posted: Mon Jan 22, 2018 12:34 am

got back to Suzette:

Quote:

Jan 19, 5:47 PM
Lad: Hi Suzette
How are you doing today?
our boss won't allow us take factory factory photo, said who ever need the sample of tools need to pay for consultation. (Nope.)
however i am wondering why we are having high demand of cerulean gold, 4 people from Europe has place order today though we haven't supplied them yet. sometimes one need to know the exact cost of goods before selling out the goods. (Whaaaaaaaat? I wonder: Is the lad trying to turn up the heat, does my cause have some fun new recruits? Very Happy

)

Jan 20, 2:03 PM
Suzette: Oh my... You didn't give them *our* gold, right? And I assume none of them have offered close to what I'm offering you. Stick with us, don't give those Euro-trash a nugget.
Don't you know? Cerulean is projected to be the hot new metal of 2018/19. Not many people outside of us in the industry know about it yet--we've kept it that way on purpose, as you may be aware--but in one years time, there will be everywhere you look.
I was actually incredibly surprised when you told me in your first email that you had not had high demand for it. Well, I suppose it just took the demand a little longer to find you. But remember: don't sell to anyone but us. They won't possibly match what we're offering you.

Jan 20, 7:13 PM
Lad: we haven't supplied anyone yet. we will be having a meeting on Monday and decide what to do . I am sure our company will like to sell to you but not sure we can wait beyond next week to sell it. we got some from Local refiner that we are yet to paid and we got to pay them in other to get more..

Suzette: I don't intend to wait beyond next week either. But I talked to our lawyers, and the lack of pictures of the factory may be a problem. You see, without pictures of the factory itself, there is no way for our lawyers to be certain that everything is up to speck, and not cause us any liabilities. I would wait until I visited you in person to get a look at your factory, but as there have been cases in our industry of people traveling to people who they think are new suppliers in foreign countries, only to be beaten up and robbed. Thus, without the pictures of the factory, our legal team won't clear us to attach our name to you, AND our security team won't clear me to come to your country and visit you in person.

Lad: but other buyers are not even given us so many conditions
the best you would have do to gain trust is to order for a smaller quantity. (Nope.) if you received and comfirm your goods you can keep doing business with us

Suzette: I understand that "no photos in the factory" has been your policy in the past. However, as this will be a very unique deal for you, and could be making your company over $52,000 per KG (I'll let you do the math of 208 x $52,25 😉), I strongly urge you to make an exception.

Lad: its 108 not 208

Suzette: Oops! Well, that is STILL hefty sum...
Hmm, every company I know asks for a look at their suppliers' setup and machinery...
Otherwise, it opens one up to a whole host of litigations and public relations nightmares... (What'd'ya, never sell real to a real business before? Laughing

)

Lad: okay. kindly exercise patience till Monday

Suzette: Monday works fine for me! Thank you for your understanding. I look forward to seeing pictures of you factory!

Lad: Alright
It must be late over there?

Suzette: It's only 9:59 where I am.
How late is it where you are?

Lad: Its morning here . Leaving for church soon
you must be in California

Suzette: Alaska, actually.

Lad: Oh okay
I have a;ways want to visit your country on Vacation
hopefully someday

Suzette: What's fun about Amarica is, it's almost like 50 different countries in one, each with their own topography, cuisine, and even culture!

Lad: well everyone want to visit a state that never sleep . New York

Suzette: That is a good one!
Alaska is almost nothing like New York, you almost forget your'e even in America, sometimes, it's such a wild place, but you can have adventures here you can't have anywhere else.
Now, tell me a little about your country! 😉

Lad: Oh okay
my country Benin Republic is a small country compare to other African Country.
Its peaceful and low crime rate thats the reason why we have many European living here.
we are well known for selling used cars to other African country and our general language is French
We have a beautiful beach, The country is not rich only got his source of income from tax and few natural resources

Suzette: I do speak some French, conveniently enough...

Lad: Oh really?
thats good

Suzette: You're known for selling used cars? I haven't heard about a country being famous for selling used cars before! (I have not!)

Lad: oh our is well known for that.
we sell new cars too
the government make it free to import any goods
many Europeans here deal with cars
The country is a small and still growing . you may not even get a direct flight here
you might have to fly into a neighboring country
then take a local flight to Benin Republic

Suzette: Good to know.

Lad: got to go now.
incase you needed anything or more information please drop messages.
Thank You

Suzette: Thank you! Will do!
I guess you should be off to church soon... Pray well!

Lad: i will. Thanks
are you a christian?

Suzette: A am, actually...

Lad: Good

Suzette: I properly discovered my faith just a few years ago. After my father died and I inherited the company, I moved up here to...find myself essentially, and I ended up finding God along the way. What can I say? Jesus knew what he was doing, going out alone into the rough wilderness: it's exactly the right place, for that kind of thing. (#UniverseConinuity #)
I suppose you've been a lifelong Good Christian? Or do you have a story like me?

Lad: i was born in a Christian family. My father was a preacher
i have been a devoted christian all my life.
i minister to people.
i also have a motherless baby home and run with my earning.
when you come down here i will love you to visit. (Daymn! Surprised

)

Suzette: Wow! You are a real Renaissance man!
I'd love to visit! How about I bring some cool American kid-stuff for the kids?

Lad: the kids will appreciate.
and also pray for you

Suzette: Why, thank you! I'll be sure to ask my niece what stuff kids think is cool nowadays, next time I see her lol
Well, all my dogs are looking at me all big-eyed for their nighttime walk, now. Guess I'd better attend to that!
Until Monday. Have fun at church ☺

Lad: okay

Posted: Mon Jan 22, 2018 1:08 am

It never ceases to amaze me how these lads can be so religious, and devout, yet steal from orphans, other churches, or anybody else they can convince. Please cause this hypocrite as much pain as humanly possible.

Posted: Mon Jan 22, 2018 5:36 am

^^ @IA Ah yes, I did a bunch of research about this phenomena just now 'cus it was bugging me Razz

I found this article, with links to some other articles, if anyone is curious about the specific psychological mechanisms that may be involved: http://www.patheos.com/blogs/geneveith/2013/06/religion-and-crime/ It seems to come down to lots of compartmentalization, and explaining/justifying away the disconnect in order to protect their sense of self as a "good person."

Posted: Mon Jan 22, 2018 5:42 am

Suzette and discussion tonight:

Quote:

Lad: How was your day Suzette?
hope you made it to the House of God?

Suzette: Oh yes.

Lad: good

Suzette: What was especially fun was, the "malamute choir" one of my friends has been training finally preformed. You ever see those videos on youtube of huskies that are able to howl different notes on command? Well, Clarissa had managed to assemble six of those dogs and they howled something remarkably similar to "Ode to Joy." I was really impressed.
How was your day?

Lad: good, we had several program at the church, Thanks given and many fun
Glory be to God
how are the dogs doing, must be time to walk them
seems you live alone with the dogs. I like dogs too but not Pit.

Suzette: We just had after dinner walks. Then we have before-bed walks in a few hours. What can I say? When you own *real* dogs like me, you have to exercise them like crazy or they will quite literally climb the walls lol
Do you have any dogs of your own?

Lad: not yet
what bread do you have?

Suzette: Two Alaskan Huskies, one Samoyed, two Poodle/Huskie mixes, and one standard Poodle. But don't worry, I'm not actually some sort of crazy dog lady, though 😆 I have so many because I compete them in sporting events.

Lad: Oh okay
sounds good
I am kinda busy now taking peoples order. we got to ship their stock out today.

Suzette: Not the , I hope? 😉 'Cus remember, that's for us...

Lad: Not
we waiting for the outcome of the meeting today. but company need to turn it into cash on or before Friday

Suzette: What happens on Friday?

we got some from other local miners. they got to be paid
They got to be paid in other to get more from them.
Well, once my team gives us the all clear, you will be able to pay them soon enough! 😉
Who were those Europeans from yesterday? Anyone I would know of?

(The lad Googled fast...)

Lad: in Germany
and one of our big buyer in France

Suzette: And the other two?

Lad: won't want to mention their name
they have been a good customer
i may tell you when you start doing business with us

Suzette: How about a tiny hint? 😉

Lad: lol

Suzette: Promise I won't tell.

Lad: not good for my job
after your first order from us will tell you
but all i know is that they are Europeans. we never met them in person though.
we have been dealing with one for 2 years.

Suzette: I see... So, now I know that it's a company that has been a round for more than 2 years 😏
Speaking PURELY hypothetically...
might they hypothetically be...
a bank?

Lad: you got nothing to worry about
i will chat with you later.
Stay cool

Suzette: So it IS a bank? 😏 Oh yes, it never is fun to piss of a bank, haha
don't worry, your secret is safe with me 😉
You stay cool as well!

D'aww, they're so cute together Cool

And now, an interlude featuring both Chet and , my lad character.

of started emailing with a lad named "" at the end of December. Yes: that is the name that the lad gave himself Shocked

Mr. Hemorrhoids was a bit slow to respond, so to encourage him to get on with it, Chet told him that his schedule had opened up and he could be in Ghana that Saturday. The lad didn't respond to him for a whole week.

Meanwhile, my lad Character, , had propositioned him about working together to scam people looking for , but never heard back.

Finally, Chet got this:

Quote:

And also forward all your correspondence with this Y4kov Minkowsk1.

I never asked for his number, but his email address is [email]
I’m sure there must be a mistake: Yakov has been nothing but a consummate professional, and everything he has told me so far checks out just fine.

Dear ,

Does it mean that you will not send your Flight Schedule?
Send me your Flight Itinerary details so that we will start making all
the necessary changes for the success of this transaction.
Waiting to receive your Flight Itinerary details.

I can send my flight details to you as well, if need be. But I do encourage you to check with your HR department: I know how fast things move at big companies, and how it can be confusing who works where, and I am confident that they will confirm that Yakov is, in fact an employee at your company. We had quite a lengthy exchange, so it may be simpler to ask him to forward you my flight information and ultimate itinerary, if need be.

A smug then sent Hemorrhoids a Google Chat request:

Quote:

Hello We may talk yet? Wink

The lad to , via email:

Quote:

Hello,

You just enter my work without my consent filling that you will do the job and receive all the money. it is like you are dreaming. who are you ?and where are you residing ? I am staying in . at junction, you have added me in hang out if you like come less talk as you have invited me.There by you decided not to connect me then you can go with the job.But i assured you one thing that you will not and never succeed in any diam from the man I bet you.
This is my telehpones [number]. I AM WAITING TO TALK TO YOU MORE IN HANG OUT AS YOU HAVE REQUESTED, I have where I got the man and it is easy for me to show him that all we are doing him is nothing but scam. I promise whosoever that is concern.Come to hang out now.I am waiting.(#OminousWords)

Lad to Chet, via email this morning:

Quote:

Dear ,

For your information, what is too hard for you to do.... I told you time without numbered that Yakov, doesn't work here. This is very clear and I don't know why it is too hard for you to understand.
Listen to me, if you know you are dealing with us, you have to go direct to the right source. You are been communicating with another person who is not even related to our company.You know what is good for you and we advise you to stop communicating with this person, called Yakov. This is not Ghana name. (Duh! cover story is that he's a European-born foreign accounts coordinator for Western Eurpope and North America Razz

) We are here in Ghana, and you are coming to meet us here in Ghana.
I have already informed you that all our client is been secured by the security ,and we used security to guard our clients,and here in Ghana so many people have been scammed and defrauded because they do not follow the right source.

I am advising you once again to try and see how best you will listen to me, send your flight itinerary details. You will see what I am telling you.
For you to know who is who, on the day you will arrive, you will see that no one will come close to you because we are using our security men in Airport to receive you through VIP entry.
I am very sure that you are dealing with scammer, because Yakov is one of them because if he claims he work in our company, this is completely wrong.
Be careful who you are dealing with because Yakov is not part of this company.

to lad, via Google Chat, this morning:

Me: Hello to you!

Thank you for offer for to teach me English! I am taking classes now, but you can not have to many learning! I hope we will make many money for long time ☺

Here is the beautiful email that Yakov had been busy crafting, to serve the dual purpose of giving Hemorrhoids Chet's flight info, and putting on a show for "their mugu":

Quote:

Dear Mr. R0ydds,

It was lovely to talk to you today. I am so glad our misunderstanding has clear up, and we have made it with Human Resources that no more such misunderstanding shall occur again within our company.
In this email, to you I have forwarded the flight information of Chet Snufl3, as well as CCed him on this email.
He will be arriving in Accra at Sunday, 4 February, 11:10 AM. As I am off site on that date, thank you for agree to meeting with this important customer instead of myself. I know you shall provide for him the lovely Ghana Virg1n Min1ng CO. LTD welcome for that we are known!

Yours Truly,
Y4kov Minkowsk1

Interesting study. Hard to understand how someone can believe that they are being used as the judgement of God, and yet not believe they will be judged as well. Double standard anyone? Rolling Eyes

ETA - Methinks Mr. Royds may have been de educated. Laughing

and Hemorrhoids Part 2

Chet to the lad:

Quote:

Well, what did I tell you? Glad that's finally sorted. In the meantime, why don't we sort out a few admin things, since we have the time. Are you free to get started on that now?

Regards,

Mr. Hemorrhoids messaged shortly after my last entry:

Quote:

Lad: Hemm Roydds ([email protected])
You did not send the particulars again
I mean for the mugu

Me: They are copy and pasted into the bottom of the email

Lad: OK LET me check and get back you you my brother
• Mon, 4:03 PM
Lad: Yes my good brother I have seen it

Me: Super duper!

Lad: But did not see you own personal contact Telephone numbers I requested it
Please send it to me now
I don't understand what you mean by super duper? explain!!

Me: is an American expression that learn in English class on Wednesday. It means super duper!

Lad: OK FINE
Send me your Tel. numbers please

Me: In my english class, we also learn informal expressions, so we may understand how people do talk to each other as friends. Is a well idea, no?

Lad: I mean your Telephone numbers now.
My number is [number] tel. number.
My Name is.

Me: Apologie. My english is still too ill for to phone without can copy and paste text to see in Google Translate 😞 But maybe few weeks will understand what people say through only listening better, and can phone then.
For now, it must just be text, so everyone can understand.

Lad: As you write, my brother I understand you so if you talk to me on phone we will understand each other too.
As this mugu is coming to Africa we have to talk at list before his arrival to put thing in other before him ( and I are both confused by this interesting syntax...)

Me: Do not understand. Use different words to say last sentence?

Lad: I mean the guy coming.

Me: Do not know term "to talk a list before his arrival to put think in other before him." Explain with different words, please?

Lad: OK,to talk means to communicate before the guy land to Africa in Ghana so we can call you.on phone. ( Confused

)

Me: You two will need to talk to me on the phone when he arrives in Africa?

Lad: You write good English as you write you can also speak small small I will understand you bother so send your telephone numbers it very important my good brothe and frien in another country. (No, dude, it'll be a regular fuster-cluck: you ever have to try to have a functional conversation as a beginning foreign language student? It's a painful experience for all parties involved Razz

Plus, I had this great idea that English teacher might be British, so he can only understand English in a British accent Laughing

)

Me: Don't worry, I will have time to practice and more english classes before he arrives on 4 Feb

Lad: You have sent the flight details good and OK but WHAT IS THE big thing there that you will not give me your numbers . I am confuse and surprise my brother about you again refusing to send you telephone numbers to me your guy.
Are you there my good brother?
What is the time there in Poland

Me: Oh my, it is 2:03 I just saw. Past my bed time! I had better go to sleep now. Sweet dreams to you!

Lad: OK sound sleep and have a wonderful night.
Bye
