My New Buddy From Africa

[BeEnAr]

Ok so as the title of the thread states, this is all about my new buddy from Africa that has selected ME to be his international mule for depositing 10.5 million US dollars into my account! WOW I'm so excited! hahahahaha

Anyway, I normally delete this shit but this time I thought i'd play a little game with him. Here's the email from him and my reply I have sent. I will see what he does next and go from there, but if anyone has any ideas of how we can get this guy to look like the biggest tool in the world let me know!.... Getting him to provide pictures of him doing things is where I think I am going with this

Hello Mr Madawi Atassi,

I am quite pleased that you have selected ME to be your foreigner to deposit this money into my account however I am a little perplexed, at the start of your email you said you would deposit 1.5 million USD into my account and then follow that up with the remaining 9 million, then at the end of the email you say I will only be getting 40% of that by my calculations that is only 4.2 million USD and I seriously doubt that the expenses will be 1.5 million dollars! but fair enough, you are the expert.

Can you also send me a photo of you at your bank with your name plate and something that shows the date of the photo so that I can confirm that this is a real email. I have answered an email from a bank overseas before and set up the account and lost quite a bit of money after it was all done. It turns out this guy wasn't from a bank at all! Can you believe the nerve of some people! I require the item showing the date so that I know you have not got an old photo of when you used to work at the bank and also require the name plate so that I can confirm it's actually you. Also I would like to see a photo of the bank with it's name showing so that I can confirm that you are from a real bank and not a made up one.

Once I get all of this we can start the ball rolling. I don't think it's too much to ask considering the amount of work I will need to do.

Thankyou once again for selecting me out of all the millions of people around the world, I feel quite excited!

Also ask your new buddy to take some photos of his computer, always wondering what sort of computer they get.

[paulr33]

you may find by just replying you are giving information away

the script will be looking at the grammer, content, word, para-phrases etc and categorising all of these

it is likely to do this to 100's of 1000's of people to essentially 'fingerprint' human style respones

powerbook scam ftw

[Count Grantleyish]

[BeEnAr]
