Hi, I new to the forum, been here a week or 2. I learned a lot by reading posts, thanks
I have a 2 lads running the NOK scam. I slowed by replies to one a day to drag it out. One lad gave me a bank account(submitted to mod). I have been stalling both with excuses for several days.
I had one pay part of the fee..lol he send me receipt and so did his bank.
The other with the bank account I stalled by saying my bank is blocking the transaction.
I have both telling me to use money gram. If i forge a receipt, cant they do a simple trace?

Looking for ideas to continue here?

I did apply to the Mentor program, just have not heard from him yet.

Hey I am new as well. There are countless things to do with your lad. I would recommend reading up on the techniques that some of the more experienced members have done. You can use that info, along with what skills you have, the personality of your character, and the behavior of your lad to get the best course of action.

Or figure out something totally different, a little initiative and imagination can go along way. Just be safe.

It's always fun to send them a broken file, or even something really blurry.

I once irritated one lad by sending him basically a thumbnail, then a broken file, then finally stretching the thumbnail image really big. I'm sure that can be stretched out over a couple of days.

I can play the image game see what happens.

I tried playing the sympathy card with one lad, but he blows right past any mention of person issues on my character.

This is the 4th time I played him out, but my first time with 419 assistance. I'll send him something tomorrow and see what happens.

Tools like fake receipts are helpful, but a tool is only as effective as the person who wields it. As a newcomer you should focus on learning how to talk your way out of a problem. If you haven't convinced the lad that you want to give him money he will twig no matter how convincing your fake receipt is. And how do you do that? Practice.

Don't be afraid to push the envelope. Twig your lad on purpose. Learn what they are willing to put up with and what they balk at. Once you learn this concept any tool you employ will be significantly more effective.

You can tell him you have never used western gram or money onion before, and ask question after question about how to do the transaction, then finally. After you have paid, you can give him the excuse your scanner is broken, and give him the reference numbers and play the "typed the wrong number/read the reference number wrong" modality.

Or insist that the clerk at WU or MG didn't give you a receipt. Or you left it there. Or you left it in the car. Or you went with your nephew and he has the receipt-you have to call him and of course he doesn't read it to you correctly.

I personally like involving the money transfer clerk-you can set up a fun dollah chop in that direction.

The WU clerk might also have told you some disturbing things about certain West Africa countries. You were ready to send the money and he made you think it over.

WU does warn about fraud, although IMHO its info is poor, unconvincing and missing the main points when it comes to 419. They should browse the Eater from time to time.

Anyway your mugu doesn't want to send you where they will spoil his job.

With all due respect, I did not read anywhere in the OP's post that the lads were located in Africa.

Then adapt it to the relevant country or situation. It's an example.

I passed the story that my bank rejected the bank to bank transfer due to a 149 flag or something like that...lol That is why he send me very nice documents to prove himself.

Played same line from WU to other lad.....

Both have been told I went to Money Grim and made the transfer. I have a lovely pic of a receipt, good luck reading the details. I think I might play one that I didn't get a receipt and I need to go back for it. BUt that is tomorrow...oh wait weekend, I don't work on weekends..guess Monday.

Don't know if that was deliberate or an auto-correct thing, but form now on my ditsy female character will be referring to the Money Grim office. Brilliant. Very Happy
