Scammers.....

eodmatt

A Couple of days ago I had a "friend request", it was from a new member apparently called Jessica. I was immediately suspicious, so I sent an email to "Jessica" as I had an idea what was in the offing - I wasn't wrong.

In my email I suggested to "Jessica" that if "Jessica" was here real name she might want to change it to something different online and I asked her for a pic of herself.

Here is her response:


[/i]My dear
Thanks very much for your mail on Expat, I am more than happy in your  reply to my message  . How are you today? l hope fine. Mine is not good due to my present condition here in Dakar Senegal.
My name is Miss Jessica Lawson, l am from Liberia in West Africa and presently l am residing now in one of the Orphanage home here in Dakar Senegal as a result of the civil war that was fought in my country some years ago.I lost my both Parents during this deadly Political War. that damaged thousands of innocent Souls in Liberia.

My family was among the first target of the rebels because my Late father was a Successful business man and also a politician supporting the Present Government when the problems was about to start.Due to this all the members of my family was Murdered in a cold Blood and our family house was set blazed.I was Lucky and escaped death because i was in bordering when this deadly incident took place.

I am writing to you from the office of the our reverend who is in charge of the the refugee camp, I told the Reverend about my situation and he permitted me to access my email in his office computer when ever he has chance with the computer, here in the refugee camp life is very difficult, Camp Address is at: (St Louis Refugee Camp  ) , Dakar Senegal. The Reverend Telephone number is ( +221-00221-781699361), Please when you call ask of Miss Jessica Lawson From Liberia west Africa, .the name of the reverend is Rev  Kenneth John at (St Louis refugee).

Before the death of my father , he was a successful businessman , while my mother was a senior lecturer then at my school.[/i]

Please listen to this and try to keep it to your self only . When my father was alive , he deposited some money in a reputable bank and he used my name as the next of kin , the amount is US( $4.6 Million Dollars). . i have the deposit certificate of the fund and the death certificate of my father here with me .
Now due to my condition, i cannot make this claims by myself, i need a foreigner who will stand on my behalf to the bank, that is why i decided to make this contact with you, for you to stand on my behalf to the bank and ask them the possibility of transferring this fund into your position in your country.As I have said i have with me all the Information concerning the fund.

So, Ladies and Gentlemen of Expat, It looks like I will soon be a millionaire and when that happens, the drinks will be on me!

Oh and if I can post a pic of her ......

Ah , have you been living in a cave for the last ten years ?. This, and these types of Nigerian scams are so common , I'm surprised you even bothered to post this , like it was something unusual.

I posted it because it came to me via expat.com. And, not everyone who reads expat.com is fully linguistic in English and of course many of us live in caves. You arrogant twit.

I just renovated my cave with the money I received from MR Lucky Thomas Wheelbarrow. the Nigerian Prince.

Fred

Damn, I thought he was a scammer so I deleted his messages.
I could have bought a bigger ice cream with the cash.

eodmatt

I did my usual with these scammers - although its the first time I've had one on expat.com - and asked her for an undraped photo.

She responded by saying that sending nude photos of herself is against her religion (I assume Islam, given the country and nationality).

So I told her that it is against the principles of most religions to steal money by fraudulent misrepresentation.

And that was the end of the correspondence.

I feel cheated. I can just do with a couple of million dollars.

Sure, I usually post the pics, when I receive them  on the http://www.419eater.com website. Can you do "fully erect" for the ladies?
:D

No worries Fred. I have $1 million of USD that has a black dye covering it so it could be smuggled into the country. I just need $10,000 USD to buy this special chemical to remove it. We can be partners.

You shouldn't be wanting to remove the black dye you should be wanting to embrace it and celebrate it.  :cool:
