First I would like to thank God, and the academy, and my parents...

Well I got my first piggy today.. Mr. Green

BIG thanks to my Mentor DUCKLING!! I was a lucky duck to get him! Also thanks to Al dente for helping me too...

Background:

This one is pretty basic but I thought I would post it.. started back around 5/10/16

Ms Wendy is Dying and want me to manage her estate.. I'm agreeable but I might NOT qualify.

Quote:

Dearest Jane, (not sure I called her jane when she is named wendy)

Can I call you Jane? thank you for getting back to me .. I have been contacted by the banker but I am worried that I can not complete this transaction.. You see I was in the Army for many years and was around a lot of gun fire and bombs exploding.. As I'm now 70 years old, I am completely deaf in one ear and 90% in other.. I just can't talk on the phone.. Your banker is requiring that I call him -- which makes total sense.. I wouldn't want to handle business like this with a someone I can't talk to..

I was hoping that you might intercede on my behalf and ask if we can
find other ways to communicate.. Can we use certified mail or a bonded
courier?

But lucky she doesn't care.. I qualify.. Shocked

and passes me to the banker -- I mistype his name to Mashable. which is almost right. He asks me to send back a form.. I send him a corrupted (random) PDF file from baiter tools forum..

Quote:

We cannot open your attached file (I wonder why Twisted Evil

) because it was not properly scanned.

We advise that you type your account details herein as to enabe me proceed accordingly and effect the transfer into your account successfuly.

Waiting for your anticipation.

So I sent back

Quote:

I think you are asking for the following..

Name: Bob
Address:
XXXXX Sunxxx XXXX Hwy Pxxxxl River,
BC 0B3, Canada
account coordinates: 47.9927° N, 124.1207° W
Brief Discription: retired

And I promptly get this..

Quote:

We received your bank ACCOUNT NUMBER,( Shocked

really?) But you did not send your bank name. (I didn't send either)

Please send your bank name and swift code for the easiness of the transfer to you.

And I responded (after a day of course)

Quote:

My bank is bank of vancouver.. I am not sure what a swift code is.. Can you explain what that is?

He ignores my questions and goes for the fee.

Quote:

This is to inform you that the Supervisory Department has approved your transfer payment of the said US$20,500,000.00 in your favor this afternoon.

However, it is required of you to settle the Cost of Transfer (C.O.T) of US$1,100.00 (One Thousand One Hundred United States Dollars Only)

Bob is excited jump_4_joy

Quote:

I cant believe it! Are you saying is I need to pay you $1100.00 and I get the 20Mill?

He sends me same email again telling me to pay.. Rolling Eyes

A couple hours later.. Ms Wendy sends me an email explaining why fee is needed (I ALREADY SAID I"D PAY)

Quote:

My dear Dear Bob
How are you and your family/business? I hope all is well.
Mr. [banker] has already told me about the transfer charges and I was the person who authorized him to contact you for you to send [blah blah]. I would have loved to settle the fees $1,100 but i do not have the money now as ...[ blah blah] I do not have the spare money ... [blah blah blah ] ...

I ask of you to do for me. I was not feeling well now. I have to stop here. let me know once you send the required fees to the banker.

Ok.. time to burn more clock

Quote:

Mr Mashable,

I have talked to Ms Wendy and SHE IS VERY UPSET that you are demanding this fee.. This was not previously discussed.. However, she has asked me to pay it..

can I mail you a chekc?

So I get this

Quote:

This is to inform you that your partner is very sick and she is responding to treatment and she said you should assist her with the C.O.T transfer .... [blah blah]... .

As a matter of urgency, I hereby sending you the name of my secretary below for to send the money through Western Union or Money gram in-order to save time, because if you remit it through bank to bank transfer, it will take 2-3days for the money to clear, but, if you send it through moneygram or western union, it will take within 30minutes for us to receive the money and to save time in this transfer.

FIRST NAMES: CLEXXXXE BURXXXNE
LAST NAME: RAXXXLL
Address: No. 10 MXXXela Crxxxnt
Pretoria, South Africa
Question: IN GOD
Answer: WE TRUST

Why did he send me complete address? Twisted Evil

So I ignore the request for MG/WU completely..

Quote:

ok i will send a check for $1100.00 in the mail today to ms Rxxxall

CLEXXXXE BURXXXNE RAXXXLL
No. 10 MXXXela Crxxxnt
Pretoria, South Africa

Bob

OH HE NOW PAYING ATTENTION

Quote:

Your mail was received and contents noted.

Due to the urgency and confidentiality this transfer requires, you are advised to use the name which I gave you to send the money through MONEYGRAM TRANSFER and send me the Moneygram control reference numbers for easy colletion as to enable me make the payment to our supervisory department for them to issue me authority to remit as to wire the fund into your nominated bank account successfully.

Waitin g to receive the money as to proceed accordingly.

So I go for the kill..

Quote:

OH i was not aware it had to be done so quickly.. WHY didn't you tell me? Why am I just finding out aboot this now? .. I have already sent it!!!

Hum.. if you say it's urgent.. hum... let me think.. I guess I can stop payment on check it but I'm not going to use Money Grammer .. NO repitable business here in BC uses them, only crooks and druggies use them.. .. (I got this from Tips thread posted yesterday thx) Also there are not any near me.. (you saw where I live right?).. I would not be able to get to one until next week.

I will do this.. if its really urgent to get the money there sooner that my check. I can call my bank and send it tomorrow and do a wire transfer.. I think all i need is your name and bank number..

IF that won't work. then I would suggest we wait for the check to arrive.

PS. I need you to be quick on this .. I have a fishing guide client coming in tomorrow so I will be out of pocket for a couple days.. I will try to get the bank wire done before I go otherwise it will have to wait until midweek next week.

And Bang this morning I have my own first Closed lad accounts
