This lad has been phoning a mate of mine for the last couple of weeks. A complete pain in the arse. It's not an accidental call - he uses an addy that's marked up as belonging to a scammer and is making 5 or 6 calls a day.

[email protected]

I dropped him a line asking what he wants and he just talked a load of shite:

When I asked him for more details in the hope of beginning a bait all I got back was:

Quote:

Hi There,

And then he went quiet but kept ringing.

So try him at the address or feel free to ring him at all hours of the day or night (preferably 4 in the morning).

Calling a lad? Now that goes against the golden rule about wasting ones own time and money when lads should do all the time and money wasting...

Which leads me onto a splendid modality - you'll like this...

1) Get a lad list (eg look in Gomer's LottoLad thread, you'll find hundreds every few days)
2) Send an email (to them all) asking for more details - tell them you will be away from your email for a week or so - traveling to Africa on business - could they call you on your cell phone out there? Give your boi's number.
3) Tada! Lots of wasted time and money, one lad who gives up his phone number through frustration. If he's still sane after step 3...
4) Rinse and repeat - this time saying it's your office fax number, and that you need the forms faxing to you. Faxes are ace - they're wholly unreliable, expensive, sound terrible, and best of all, if they can't send, they'll often automagically keep retrying. Now your boi will be in tears Smile

Who says you stay on the line long enough for an answer? Laughing

I do like your other ideas as well though. Wink

indeed

I'm all about systems and efficiency - I figure if one can get the lads wasting each other's time, one can really "gear" ones work, so minimal baiting upsets maximum lads - the ratio we love Smile

If I had been working in a factory in the 60's, I'd have been the "Time and Motion" guy Wink
