    if he does, ask him to do the payment by WU again, but ask him to complete this form - tell him Western Union are covering their asses.

    Great form.

    "Is the money going to be used for international/local terrorism?"

    I'm sure everyone answers that one honestly :)

    I emailed him back after receiving confirmation that he is not a scammer, i.e, the picture of him and his brother

    Me
    Which trustworthy man are you?

    I will send the money tomorrow because I picked up a hand infection from milking my neighbours horses last night, the vet told me it is quite contagious so I must isolate myself from cars and people.

    Dobrin
    ok sir then i wait you tomorrow with the payment info
    thank you

    His second email, probably after discovering altavista babelfish

    Dobrin
    are you really a show man i see...are you really think that i will trust in all of this boulshets?

    Me
    what boulshets? I am a man of trustworthy speaking trust words and I want to buy your tickets but you must wait until tomorrow

    I'm still waiting on a reply

    EDIT/

    Dobrin
    anyway...will see tomorrow what trustworthy man are you

    I dunno guys...
    Maybe this dude is legit?
    I mean why else would he bother to get his brother round to pose with him holding the scanned copy of the ticket receipt?

    Sounds like an awful lot of hassel for a no nonsense guy who doesn't like boulshet!

    It's a horrible way to treat a guy who's been so understanding about your recent troubles with the horse, whores and donkeys!


    Good read Nephew!

    I was thinking this myself, maybe he just thinks you're a psycho who likes talking about random stuff while doing business. Maybe not, who knows!

    God, I'm such a gullible idiot.

    That would be equally funny.

    In other news, scambaiting forum FTL!! :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,340 ✭✭✭Nephew


    I propose Boulshets as the name for the scambaiting forum.

    Me
    Dobrin Laurentiu-Ionut, my trusted friend, how are you today? I am full of vinegar, who knows what later? I withdrew £485 from the atm machine this morning, I had to drive to Belfast to get sterling because the banks are closed at weekends. Do you want the money sent via western union, cheque, paypal or by fedex. I feel courier is probably the safest option? I'll let you decide because I am not too familiar with the internet, my son bought me this computer for my 53rd birthday.
    Your friend

    Dobrin
    i think that trough western union will be good and fast

    Me
    Yes, that seems like a brilliant idea. I have never heard Joe Duffy say a bad word about western union.

    Dobrin
    i told you yet...you are a show man
    bye bye

    Me
    A show man? I am a trusted man of trust speaking words. You are obviously not a man of trust speaking words because you have reneged on our deal. I must search ebay for a more honourable man of english words.

    Dobrin
    ok

    Me
    I have the money that I want to send for the tickets but you seem to be making a big deal of it for some reason. I am an honourable man who will buy your tickets.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,469 ✭✭✭weeder


    lol a show man


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,340 ✭✭✭Nephew


    Dobrin
    ok then let all of this words and make the payment so i can shipp you the tickets and finish the deal if you really are who you mtold me a trust man,tell me where are you based?

    Me
    I can pay by credit card if that suits you better, I think to be safe I only need to give you the 16digit number, and the expiry dates, I read in Irelands Own that if I don't give you the 3 digit security number I am safe from any fraud. Is that correct? I am not too up on modern technology. Email me back with what method you would prefer to use, credit card, western union etc because frankly I think you think I am an ignorant old fool.

    Anyway here is my address for sending the tickets to

    **** Cornelius G. ****
    13 Ballyfuga Rd,
    Tubbahcurry,
    Leitrim,
    Ireland

    Dobrin
    sir i think that this is not a better ideea to give me your card info,i don't want to risk,mayne tomorrow or in another day will goes something wrong with your card and you will think that i have made you this,sio i think that is a good ideea trough western union

    Me
    Are you sure? You appear to be trustworthy man of trust speaking words. If you so wish, I will send you the money on monday because my local western union is closed on Sunday for churchgoing.

    Thank you please

    Brilliant fair play to you nephew I wouldnt have the patience....


  • Posts: 31,828 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Nephew,

    Be careful when sending fake numbers - you may inadvertently send someone elses real number.

    Shouldn't be an issue as the name will be different, but then again - who knows - the number could end up being used in another unrelated scam!

    edit: some of these guys have access to CC number checking programs!

    BTW check 419eater.com for more tips

    dcarroll, I get about 20 of them a day. It's just spam. But because they're coming (mostly) from yahoo accounts they get past gmail's spam filter into my inbox. Very annoying.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 460 ✭✭dcarroll


    did anyone notice the spelling and grammer and spelling mistakes on the "official" confirmation from fifa? hilarious

    Great thread


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 818 ✭✭✭Cormic


    Class thread - thanks Nephew.

    I would like to see a scam baiting forum but I can also see the problems that could come with one.
