Post by: WindupAtheist on August 23, 2007, 12:00:47 AM I got one from the lawyer of some deceased British millionaire who wanted to give me money for some barely-explained reason. That guy in Nigeria hasn't written in a while though.

Title: Re: CAN I TRUST YOU? Post by: Righ on August 23, 2007, 12:12:18 AM Hello JoJo. Unfortunately, I am in the Baghdad too, but if you send me an advance of $10,000 to Western Union account 1718836147 I will contact you by channels secured when I get back to States United, and have my running dog lackies of American imperialism set up the accounts we need to make this transaction happen. I assure you on the life of many toy company executives that I am most assuredly trustworthy and man of my words. Thank you for this opportunity to do businesses with you.

I sure hope that there is more than 25 million so more people can take advantage of this. Is there some Nigerian email database I can opt-in with so I can get in the action?

Title: Re: CAN I TRUST YOU? Post by: Murgos on August 23, 2007, 06:45:27 AM There was a big news thing on Dateline the other day about scams like this. The American Media catches on 10 years too late. News at 11. I got a fairly clever one the other day. It wasn't the quality that was clever (e-bay scam) it was that they encoded their scam url in hex to obfuscate it, i.e. something like http://0x7F00001/ebayaccountsecurity/blahblahblah/IamStupid.aspx (resolves to local loopback 127.0.0.1).

Title: Re: CAN I TRUST YOU? Post by: Krakrok on August 23, 2007, 06:18:01 PM I posted a car on craiglist the other day. So far the only responses have been scams.
Quote Hello, I'm Mr David Smith, I hail from Canada, I came across your advert and am highly interested in Purchasing the {CAR &TRUCK } which you offer for sale. Due to the fact that its been a long time have been searching for it, Please Kindly get back to me as soon as possible with the necessary answers to the question in mind, Are you the first owner? The present condition? Your final asking price?And I will also like you to send me Pictures to enable me view what I intend to purchase and i will like you to know that my form of payment is through a USPS Money Order.. I await your urgent response so that we can proceed further.. Regards, Daivd Smith....... Quote Sounds Good. I will like to proceed with payment asap and will like to handle shipment myself when you must have gotten your cash at hand.I am in no rush to pick up the car till funds are clear at the bank.As there are too many scams on internet as regards buying and selling with large bogus account.My mode of payment will be via Electronic Cashier Check drawn on US bank.(Bank Of America).You will probarbly need a business check paper to print and cash or the check today.The business check paper is sold for $20 at any stationery store,staples or at your local office supply outlet.I will add the cost of supplies to your asking price with an extra offer for accepting my mode of payment. The payment will be in excess as i will want you to contact my shipper with the excess fund for shipping the car after you must have confirmed and cashed the check.i will wait for your bank to clear the check so you can deduct your own money and send the excess fund to the shipper via money gram Money Transfer so as to cover the cost of shipping the car from your place to it's destinationI work with an auditing firm and will not have time to mail a check. you can IM on this ID XXX or call me on XXX for more information.Thanks and God Bless,you can get the posting deleted from craiglist There are people out there that fall for this shit. They don't even make any sense. Title: Re: CAN I TRUST YOU? Post by: Yegolev on August 23, 2007, 10:04:58 PM I couldn't fall for that scam if I wanted to. I just don't understaaaand.
Title: Re: CAN I TRUST YOU? Post by: Tale on August 23, 2007, 11:03:12 PM Wasn't that the plot to Three Kings? I was thinking the same :) Re people falling for these scams - there was actually an investment manager in Victoria (southeast Australia) who lost vast amounts of his investors' money to one of these scams, thinking he was about to get them an amazing return on investment. He was prosecuted last year or the year before, though I don't have a story link. Title: Re: CAN I TRUST YOU? Post by: Yegolev on August 24, 2007, 08:12:37 AM "How do you plead?"
"Crikey!" Title: Re: CAN I TRUST YOU? Post by: Tale on August 24, 2007, 06:15:20 PM "How do you plead?" "Crikey!" YEEEHAWWWWW HOWDY PARDNER! BALD EAGLE GREENBACK BEARS IN THE WOODS GRITS AND THE KKK I'm going to post this sort of thing like a cunt after every mention of the United States on f13.net from now on, to clearly demonstrate my lack of any wider awareness of the world. Title: Re: CAN I TRUST YOU? Post by: Yegolev on August 25, 2007, 07:37:11 AM As long as it's funny!
I do like grits. Title: Re: CAN I TRUST YOU? Post by: Yegolev on August 25, 2007, 09:22:02 AM You made me think about this for a while today. I am very curious about stereotypes in general, so if you have some more American ones I'd love to hear them. Never get this stuff, most of the time, since I think people are afraid we will shoot or bomb them.
I wish I had more Australian ones, but I don't, outside of wildlife, Mad Max and Paul Hogan. Title: Re: CAN I TRUST YOU?

Are there any others? Oh wait. I have one... It's in the form of a joke... Guy is going through customs from America to Australia. The clerk looks at him and says, "Do you have anything to declare?" Guy says, "nope." Clerk asks, "Do you have a criminal record or have you committed any felonies?" Guy says, "Is that still a requirement to get in?" Title: Re: CAN I TRUST YOU? Post by: eldaec on August 26, 2007, 08:15:45 AM Quote Sgt. Joey Jones Nice. Because thinking up two names is hard. Title: Re: CAN I TRUST YOU? Post by: Oban on August 26, 2007, 06:39:51 PM A couple from Montana decided to go to Canada for their holidays one summer. They drove north across the border, stopped at a dinosaur park, then continued northeast. After driving for a couple of days, they realized they were lost. They found a small city, and pulled over to ask a pedestrian for directions.
"Hey buddy, can you tell us where we are?" The pedestrian smiled, said "Saskatoon, Saskatchewan", and went on his way. The driver turned to his wife and said "Well, we still don't know where we are. He doesn't even speak English." |
