Im getting scammers... 2 in a week... latest one was the oil rig guy... my response:
Hi John,
Thanks for your email.
WOW!!! You work on an oil rig? So does my dad? Which Oil Rig are you working on at the moment? Maybe you could speak to him if you're on the same one... that would make it so much easier!
Ive always wondered what it would be like working on an oil rig... Dad always comes home and tells me all these amazing stories about them. Are they Dangerous? Is it scary being out there on an Oil Rig?
Can you send me pictures of your oil rig? Im creating a collection of Oil Rig photos that im going to auction off on Ebay to try and make some extra money... I would be willing to go halves with you if you can provide me with some good photos... What are your paypal details so I can transfer the money through to you once the auction has ended?
I was thinking that If my dad and you work on the same rig i could have the car helicoptered out to you so you can see it in person, then if you like it you can just transfer me the money and then have it helicoptered back when you go back onshore?
The other day i was thinking about joining an oil company and go out on a rig, i hope you dont mind me calling it a rig, im not trying to be disrespectful, im just trying to get into the mindframe of a rigger... is that what you guys call yourselves? I think if you called yourselves riggers it would be pretty awesome, everyone would look at you and be like, that guys a rigger, how cool... is it cool working on an oil rig?
Do you guys have your own secret society? Whose the head rigger? Do you know him? Do you guys have secret oil rigs that you use in your time off to make extra money? That would be pretty cool... Can I join the Society?
Please let me know what Paypal details to use as the Auction for the ebay Oil Rig pictures has ended since ive been writing you this email and I want to make sure you get your fair share. It sold for $23.16, so your share would be $11.58.
Back on track, is your courier agent a fellow rigger? Will he be able to teach me a few tricks of the trade before i join up when he comes to pick up the car? Does he have the appropriate paperwork for me to join the Secret Society?
My Paypal details are as follows:
riggersocietywannabe@riggerssecretsocietyshhdonttellanyone.com.au
I look forward to hearing from you!!!
"Rig Master"
P.S do you think anyone would mind that im calling myself "Rig Master"? Its a pretty cool name i think, but i dont want to upset the Society, so if theres any problems let me know please.
Ben
