xD Don't you love it when they make it easy for you? Though maybe I should be suspicious. Oh well.

So I'm in a dying widow bait...the widow has long since died, Thor guard her fictional soul, and now the lawyer needs payment for all sorts of documents. I did my first slap and got a piggy...it was great. My next step was to go from saying MG needed a letter from his office (which is what made him accuse me of being a joker! the nerve!) and then he wanted me to use WU or his mule. So, reported the mule acct, and decided to go the WU since he said he lived far.

Granted I forgot they could check the status online, so I've been stalling and he's gotten rather pissed off. I delayed just before Father's Day saying I left the slip with all the info in the car that my roommate was borrowing for the whole couple of days to see her dearest dying dad (I can make up cancer patients too). So, I was inspired, and created the evil roommate.

First I e-mailed him as my main character (let's call her Nickel in lieu of the coin she's really named after) who stated she was upset that her roommate, (who we'll call James in lieu of the other half of Team Rocket she's really named after) wasn't due back till the next day due to a storm. Nickel stated that she tried to get James to give her the info, but James made up excuses not to.

A few hours later, James e-mails the good lawyer to say that Nickel was a b-word that stole her boyfriend, and that she has no intention of returning the WU slip. However, if Lawyer was actually a scammer, she would give him the info he needed. If he was real, then she would pay him double to cut Nickel out of the will.

I expected greed to prevail, but alas, he surprised me by forwarding James' e-mail to Nickel! I think this may breathe new life into the bait, as now Nickel simply MUST cancel the WU slip, and in fact, should now send a bank transfer...oh but wait...she realizes that James has broken into her e-mail! Does he have another account that she can send money to, just to be sure James won't mess it up? There are all sorts of possibilities now.

A self baiting lad, what a treat. Smile

Talking of a self baiting lad, I've stumbled across another amusing example of this, but as this is an 'open' thread, I'll plonk the details in HH&T. (It's probably more fitting there anyway).

He's being stubborn...doesn't he realize piggies are herd animals?

While I work on getting the piggy, he decides to ask for ID...maybe I'll get one if I send the file. Of course, it's not MY fault he's such a poor lawyer he doesn't have the latest equipment to open the file! In fact, I'm starting to believe he's not serious... Laughing
