Meet Mr .

Mr Town is a "an Auditor of a Bank of Scotland here in London" at 142 Brampton Road,Central London SW3 1HY, United Kingdom, communicating with an Australian photomodel called .

It would surprise no-one here that Mr Town's emails are in fact coming from Nigeria.

After Eliza argued with the Lad Lawyer, Mr Town tried to get her to toe the line.

I was just coming back from my village to see my mother who is very ill and the doctor whose taking care of her ask me for $18,000 for her drugs and all my hope is on this fund that we are to have, so please do something.

I will advise you to atleast do something to have this Documents from the attorney so that we will execute this transaction this week because we need money to take care of our daily activities.

Well, for one thing, he claims to be from the south of England, which AFAIK is pretty much urbanised; for another, I thought the NHS would have covered his mum's medicines; and for a third, do people if England pay in dollars?

I think I'm going to slap him for trying to twist my arm with that story as I know the NHS should help his Mum before I explain the problem with the $6000...

You are joking aren't you? http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?xml=/news/2005/07/31/nhs131.xml
Actually our local chemists does accept payment in US dollars but I think thats just a one off.

Then again, why educate him? Please let him make this kinds of mistake with their next victims so they will see through his pathetic story...

Perhaps he's a victim of the postcode lottery.

Now he's forgotten who's supposed to be sick!

I will want to know if you have contacted the attorney because If you must know, i will not want anything to jeopardise the success of this transaction because the future and the total joy and happiness of my family is depended on this transaction.
My wife has been down in a sick bed for a long time because of a kidney malfunctioning and she needs a transplant. We are being referred to Isreal for the transplant at the cost we cannot afford. I have virtually spent all my life savings trying to save her life and now I am running debts.
My children has started loosing their motherly love and care and there s nothing I can do than to seek a way to bring back their mother home. So my dear What do you think that I should do? Watch helplessly while my wife die? "No" I will appreciate it more if there are better hospitals in your country where she can do the transplant so that as soon as the money gets into your account we fly straight to your country.

I slapped rather gently, considering:

I'm getting a little bit pissed off at this sob-story about your wife's illness. Better hospitals here? Transplants in Israel? For f*ck's sake, what happened to the British health system? I thought it was the best in the world!
Look, I have every sympathy for you with your family problems, but please don't blow them up into something out of Movie Of The Week. Whatever you're facing doesn't change the facts that I can't get the money easily. I may have to call in a couple of favours and borrow the money - or maybe my parents can stump up the cash.
