I just received a mail from a new lad, first contact made by him/her.

The name of the lad is . Reminds me of that song "Live is Life"...
My problem now just is is that a guy or a gal???

Also the format is a weird one:

Quote:

Hellow Guy?how far i know that you will be surprise to see my mail and while i my self i don't know you but i blive that to know one another is starting by a day, guy can you tell me who you are i know you are a guy just like me but i need more of your infor.
thanks
from Burkina Faso.
bye.

It's really bad English. I hope that's a sign for a lad that'll be easy to work.
I just have no idea what he/she/it wants from me...

I'm officially confused...

Its not a format, he thinks that you are a fellow laddie, just like he is.
And he is trying to scope you out...

Great name though, reminded me of "land of a thousand dances"... Cool

In my humble opinion "Burkina Boys" are the best of all to bait... Very Happy

But how the hell does he get that idea?
I'm sure he's not one of the lads I targeted with my failed mass-conversion, or he uses a totally different name and address.

Maybe its one of the lads you mailed in your conversion and is just checking out if your one of those Nigerian scammers ?

Maybe not though as Simba said he just thinks your a fellow lad Smile

Edited to add, im sure they have just as many accounts as we do, just because you got a email from him that you don't recognize doesn't mean you haven't been in contact with them

One answer could be that like we use catcher accounts and character accounts and real accounts, the lads may do the same. So this could be a lad receiving an ASEM in a character account, assuming its from a fellow lad, and then replying from his real (or at least another) account.

I think Simba is right. Although some lads are lazy and may send out shortened formats, this one looks worded as if lad to lad. I gues he wants to become your boss.

Think of the fun you could have working for him Twisted Evil

^^^^^ there's no doubt that he thinks you're a guyman. I have done a bunch of baits this way and it's great. They'll hand over victims that you can warn. Then you complain that they give you magas who don't want to pay.

You can throw him some jobs as well. Let him know that you have a maga ready to make a very large payment. He'll almost certainly jump through whatever hoops you require. I have one that's completed dozens of pages of security forms and is now on safari picking up a shipment of laptops for me. Since he thinks I'm a lad, it was very easy to setup.

The biggest difficulty in hooking these is that most are pretty insistent on speaking with you on the phone first. Complain that you have no minutes on your card and you're waiting on on your maga to send the westy before you can buy another. In the meantime, you have an urgent job that you want him to help with.

I was baiting as when this popped up:

Quote:

Bros How far, l know hear from you again about that job, the man write for immediate processing.
l wait to hear from you now, so that you go carry out the work.
Thanks.

Someone here theorised that the Lad had seen the other Lad refer to me as "Princess Eliza" and assumed that I was another Lad entirely (header analysis put them both in the same cafe).

The exchange continued:

Quote:

There's been a mistake.
I don't know who you are or what this is about.

Quote:

l bring jobs for you, lno understand you by saying all this.
l wait to hear from you to enable me see what to do by sending you the works.
l wait to hear from you.

Quote:

Just what do you want?

Quote:

were are you now,
and tell me on how to send the informations.
l wait to hear from you. send me your phone number to call you.

Quote:

You contacted me, I asked first, so you tell me where the Hel you are.
You have lotsa chutzpah to be demanding stuff out of the blue.

Quote:

l am at Malaysia
and u.

Quote:

Australia.
And now?

Then he dropped out of sight for some weeks... only to contact the other persona in the same bait, :

Quote:

Chair,
Chiar that job done answer and siad how him go send the money.
please reply him now.
Thanks,
Yours Boy.

I slapped him down:

Quote:

Who the hell are you? I'm not "Chair" and you are not my "boy".

On reflection, maybe I should have kept him on the string, but I had a lot of baits running then...

Well, I asked him which details he wants to know. Let's see if we can play this game.
Might be fun.
Confusing the hitman already was quite nice, although I got something mixed up in the story I told him (I told him some lunatic lady blew up the gas-station and herself, and two days later she ways hiding from an angry mob...) and also he didn't believe me that Monsieur B3ll0 chopped his dolla and thought it was my guy...

"Nna" means farther in Igbo. So "Nnanna" probably means grandfarther. I'd check on his IP, perhaps this is baiter vs. baiter, because itzs just the way my fakelads act (and real lads to not tend to be so cooperative).

just my 2 kobo Rolling Eyes

The IP fits. It points to Burkina Faso.
