this is the funniest thread in here.

p-p-p-powerbook time hehe, scam the scammer into sending you money instead.

And the funny part is that he is ONLY concerned about the money, yet NO questiosn on about arranging shipment through his fake shipping company.

You should ask him about that. Me, I'd be concern about getting the damn bike than worrying about the money.

Thai,
Why are you giving me all these problems. Its already 6PM here and I call the Agent but he told me you have not sent the money.
I am geting tired of this problem and my client who is the buyer said if the money should not reach the shipping Agent buy Tomorrow Saturday, I should ask you to cancil the deal and return money.
I will not like this to happen because my company will be the looser.
Please the money must reach the Shipping Agent tomorrow morning latest.
Waiting to hear from you
Davy

I counter attack with this (note, I'm not selling a 750R):

Hey Davy, it's not my fault. I am very poor, that's why I am selling my 750R. It's this old lady at Western Union that is giving me a hard time. What a stupid bitch, I hate her and wish she would die. I don't have the extra money to pay for the money wire transfer and am waiting for you to send me the cash so that I can send it to you. How will I ship the bike? Do I go and have it put it a big box? What shipping company is your shipper from and how can I get him the bike? I've already spent some of the money on beer and a little bit of weed (hahaha) so I have to go through with this transaction.

Waiting to hear back from you.

Thai

The weird thing is, his grammar isn't nigerian in nature.

O man this is good, go back and give him a fake confirmation number for the western Union money xfer that'll prolong this even more!

D-Tox · 10-01-2004, 02:01 PM

screwing with him is fun and all, but are you planning on using the fake check to have him investigated for whatever fraud charges exist in his country?

you should have already started persuing that by now... might even be fingerprints on the check

jroelofs1 · 10-01-2004, 02:02 PM

Hey this happened to me already dont cash it and dont send him anything i got stiffed for 7700.00. If you cash it for yourself take it somewhere that they dont know you and cash it for yourself (HA HA). NO DONT just joking take it to the police and turn it in i repeat DONT TRY AND CASH IT........

I'm having fun with this guy for the moment... might take a trip to the police station later today with that cheque and letter. Thing is, I doubt they'll do anything about it. In the meantime, if I can score some money off of this scammer, than better for me!

We'll see, I'll keep posting.

RbbrDckyBK · 10-01-2004, 02:18 PM

These guys are all over the place, usually in countries where they couldn't care less about things like this. When I put my car for sale online, I'd get emails from guys like these a couple times a day. In the beginning, I'd get their IP addressess, trace them back to their ISPs, and email the ISP admins (so that at least they'd lose their Internet access, and maybe the ISP would contact the authorities), but usually these guys operate from Internet cafes in third world countries, where there is little hope of ever catching them.

Right on man we might as well pursue this "game" with full vigor the police will sound very interested but they are the WRONG people to deal with this... so That would be a waste of time. Im thinking full out p-p-p-p-powerbook time baby! lets play it to the end!

Mr. Lesbian · 10-03-2004, 09:31 AM

Thai,

I can not understand you but I will advise you to send the remaining money to the Agent first thing tomorrow morning; Use part of the money you want to send to pay for the wire transfer tomorrow .You dont need to wait for any money from me.

With what you wrote in your last mail, If the Agent did not see money tomoroww, I will ask the Belgium INTERPO to get intouch with the FBI in US in order to recover my client's money.

If you dont want problem, send the remaining money with you to the Agent and I will know how to balance the agent . I dont know you are not responsible.

Failure tomorow means problems for you

Davy

It is now 2.00PM here in Europe and by the end of business, if you dont forward the remaining money with you , I will have no choice than to tell the buyer to get intouch with INTERPO with your full address and National information.

New tactics for a scammer, trying to sound all legit and shit. I wonder how I should play this one out...

Mike_V · 10-03-2004, 04:17 PM

Ha. Dick 'em over!

Cicada · 10-03-2004, 04:21 PM

bump -- i wanna see him get owned ;)

rusaccord · 10-03-2004, 04:26 PM

Hand the MO over to the secret service. If there's anyone that can screw over anyone else, it's Uncle Sam.

suzysowner · 10-03-2004, 04:45 PM

Ok...How the hell do you know it's fake? Are you in the secret service? Do you have the technology/resources to determine if in fact the check is fake? Or are you just guessing? Because that's what it sounds like. If so you might want to actually get some PROOF before trying to "scam the scammer", because you might just be screwing yourself over in the long run...
