Before I even knew about this site, or knew what baiting really was, I dabbled in it a bit. Unfortunately, I was stupid enough to use my real name since it was sent to my real email address. I don't know why I didn't continue this one, but after looking through this site today, I'd like to get into baiting. Here is my work before I knew what I was doing....

Dear friend,
I am Mr Abubaka Chab, Bank Manager of Union BankNigeria. PLC, Lagos Branch.

Actually, I know it will come to you as a surprise because we have not met either physically or through correspondence.I have a very urgent and confidential business proposition for you for our overall mutual interest.

On June 6 2001,an American Oil Consultant/Contractor with the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, Mr. A Barton made a numbered time (fixed) deposit for twelve Calendar months, valued at USD$9,000,000.00(nine million dollars) in my Branch. Upon maturity, I sent a rout ine notification to his forwarding address but got no reply.

After a month, we sent a reminder and finally we discovered from his contract employers, Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation that (Mr. A Barton )died from an automobile accident. On further investigation I found out that he did not leave a WILL and all attempt to trace his next of kin were fruitless.

I therefore made further investigation and discovered that (Mr. A Barton) did not declare any next of kin in all his official documents, including his bank deposit paperwork. This sum of USD$9,000,000.00 is still sitting in the Bank and the interest is being rolled over with the principal sum at the end of each year, No one will come forward to claim it. According to Nigerian Law, at the expiration of 6 (six) years, the money will revert to the ownership of the Nigeria Government if nobody applies to claim the funds. Consequently, my proposal is that I will lik e you as a foreigner to stand in as the next of kin of (Mr.A Barton) so that the fruit of this old man labor will not get into the hands of some corrupt government officials. This is simple; 1) I will like you to provide me immediately with your full names, address, telephone/fax number so that the attorney will prepare the necessary documents and affidavits, which will put you in place as the next of kin. 2) We shall employ the services of two attorneys for drafting and notarization of the WILL and obtain the necessary documents and letter of probate/administration in your favor for the transfer.

3) A bank account in any part of the world, which you provide, will then facilitate the transfer of this money to you as the beneficiary/next of kin of (Mr Barton) The money will be paid into your account for us to share in the ratio of 55% for me and 40% for you. 5%will be map out to cover any expenses incurred during the cause of transaction.

There is no risk at all as all the paperwork for this transaction will be done by the attorney and my position as the Branch Manager guarantees the successful execution of this transaction. If you are interested, please reply immediately .

Upon your response, I shall then provide you with more details and relevant documents that will help you understand. Please observe utmost confidentiality, and rest assured that this transaction would be most profitable for both of us because I shall require your assistance to invest my share in your country.

Awaiting your urgent reply , and please save me the anxiety of endless waiting.

God bless you.
Mr Abubaka Chab.
UnionBank PLC,
Lagos,Nigeria

Dear Mr. Chab:

How interesting! Before I give you any details, though, could you tell me if there will be any fees assessed? You mentioned an attorney would be involved in drawing up documents. I hear attorneys can be very expensive. Please let me know. Thank you.

You say I may need to pay the attorney $1000usd. I looked for your Mr. Barrister Matthew Porbeni online, but was not able to find anything about him or his practice. He must be a very secluded person! Can you give me more information on him so that I know he is reliable, or a webpage? If not, perhaps I can suggest an attorney to use!

Dear XXXXXXXXXXXX,

You should contact the attorney, and he will give you more information about himself. But i know he is a spacialist when it comes to this type of claim.

I will be waiting to hear from you.

Regards,

Abubaka.

As I said, I'm not sure why I dropped the ball on this one. See any potential there?

Since the lads tend to send out scamspam by the thousands, it is not very much of a stretch that they have no idea who they are sending out to. In any case, drop the baiting on your real email addy, and then set up a dummy account with gmail.. (pm me your email addy and I will send you an invite or 10). Then you can forward the lads address to your gmail and start it as a new character.

For your first mail to him, just write "sounds interesting, what do I need to do?" Then have fun... just start out slow and play him like a 10# bass on a 4# test line...let him bring in the attorney....and complain about the attorneys attitude to your lad, etc... make them work for what they aint getting anyway.
