I got 2 lads on the hook and I don't know what to say. One wants my "RECEIVING BANK PARTICULARS" and the other wants

"Your full name.
2. Phone, fax and mobile
3. Address.
4. age
5. occupation"

both have hilariously bad English skills, but that's typical, isn't it?

Anyway, what should I send to them? I'm not planning doing anything big, I'd like to get a trophy out of the somehow.

Woot! I just realized now I'm not quite a newb.

Ah, the lad is still 100% on script. At this particular juncture it barely matters at all what you answer... You could say you are a 9 year old Jox Strap w/ phone number 666-555 living at 123 Fake St working at the sausage factory and they won't skip a beat.

Check out the "Eater University" forums down at the bottom of the main forums for some help in getting these baits started... it gets fun once you have them off the preset script.

You are sooooo still a newb.
You're not a pro until you've got a lad tattooed, had him jailed, got a photo of him with a fish on his head and got a poem entitled "Why Squirrels are great" from him. All at the same time. Very Happy

But in the meantime, you have a couple of options. You can totally ignore their requests for details and go off on your own ramblings. You can make up any old junk and send it to them. Or you can get a big fat, juicy .dll file from WindowsSystem32 (copy and paste it, don't drag and drop), right click on it, change it's properties and rename it "bankdetails.jpg" and send them that - it'll eat up their bandwidth and they won't be able to open it (give them some grief for that).

Or, you can have a quick search through these forums and you'll find loads of threads where people have come up with other different methods of messing them about when they ask for details.

Good luck!!!

^^ As above, but to get into the habit, try straight baiting, be as normal as possible, send him a reasonable name and address, when he wants a bank account send him a reasonably sounding one, then once you get to the money bit, and he wants wu or mg, then you start to mess with him.

For various almost believeable reasons you can't use either wu or mg, I have some good ones based on my locality, but your bank can do an instant transfer, if only you had his bank account number

Once you have the account number, send it off to our good friend Alan, wait a week, then tell the lad your bank said there is a problem with that account, and does he have another?

Close that one, and the next one, and the next one until you decide to try something different, like snail mail, which goes in a pre-ripped envelope

pm me if you want any help with reasons for not using wu/mg

Along with the sage wisdom you've already received, I suggest slowing things down a bit. How about he answers a few questions. One a day for a few weeks. Then you can assess whether money should be discussed.

Lads love foreplay; if they say otherwise, they're just playing hard to get.

Or you can generate a bunch of fake personal information at the following link to send:

They never use the info anyway.

They never use the info - except for the phone number.... many lads are really keen on talking to their victims. So feel free to provide fake name, address, bank details etc., but think twice about just making up a phone number.
