Attn.

My proposition to you is to seek your consent, A deceased client of
mine,that shares the same last name as yours, who died as the result of
heart-related conditionin March 12th 2007. His heart condition was due
to the death of all the members of his family in the tsunami disaster
on the 26th December 2004 in Sumatra Indonesia
.

I have contacted you to assist in distributing the money left behind by
my client before it is confiscated or declared unserviceable by the
bank where this deposit valued at Nineteen million dollars
(US$19million dollars) is lodged. This bank has issued me a notice to
contact the next of kin, or the account will be confiscated.

I will like you to acknowledge the receipt of this e-mail as soon as
possible via my private EMAIL -:[email protected]


Best regards,

You know, they could at least get the year to be the current one...
 
Re: Nigerian 419 scams

Send an email back that you want the money, then see how long you can keep him thinking he's got a sucker while you're not going to give him anything.
 
Re: Nigerian 419 scams

I am tempted. If someone comes up with a response, I'll reply with it.
 
Re: Nigerian 419 scams

Apparently there's a site that does just that (responds to these things with outrageous stuff.) I seem to recall there being one about an "International Bread Church" that demanded a picture of them with slices of bread on their heads...and apparently they delivered in hopes of getting the money.

Wonder if I'll get another of these soon to share. Haven't in a while.
 
Re: Nigerian 419 scams

I ould probably go find a few, my spam e-mail only has like 1500 unread messages in it. If we're that interested, I can get a couple once I get back home.
 
Re: Nigerian 419 scams

Aw spit, where was that one video we had running around? About the guy that ripped on a pair of nigerian scammers?
 
Re: Nigerian 419 scams

You mean the video that was related to a HUUUUUGE website that basically documented the guy playing a scammer for about a year, until he made said video to clearly (VERY CLEARLY) explain to the scammer that he was just fucking with him?

Yeah, that site. Still got it in your annels of your information hold?
 
Re: Nigerian 419 scams

I remember that, but I can't remember the website. Can't be too difficult to find on google.
 
Re: Nigerian 419 scams

I didn't save the site, much to my disappointment. Finding it on Google actually yielded a kickass website completely dedicated to people fucking with scammers. They actually give you tips and guides on how to do it yourself, as well as a hall of fame, where they have actual pictures of scammers being tricked into doing weird things, like carving a bust of the scambaiter.



Really awesome stuff.
 
Re: Nigerian 419 scams

Wooooow! I was just looking through their "Hall of Shame" and just...just...wow.

This may be relevant to your interests.

 
Re: Nigerian 419 scams

Question: Should we form a "special unit" of forum members for the purposes of scambaiting? I imagine that what the network of potential resource, contacts, etc. we could probably pull off something on the order of the "Powerbook".
