Hello "Success"

I'd really like you to reply to this email. I can understand that you are a con-man/woman and are out to make a fast buck. What I don't understand is how successful this scam is. It is probably the oldest one in the book and more and more people who use the WWW are increasingly aware of this scam, or at least to be vigilant in checking the buyer is legitimate before sale.

I'm thinking of doing the same. That is scamming innocent, stupid, hard working individuals out of money which they probably desperately need and work long hours to make. But before I heartlessly try to rip people off, pushing them into further financial difficulties probably near suicide. I want to know what is the "Success" rate of your pathetic scam? is it one in every 100 or is it better than that?

If your get rich scheme really works, and your humanity is the only cost. Sign me up. Cause I know I'm a glorious f'er like you who wants to make a quick dime at others expense. Hell I'll follow in your footsteps and do the same things you do which would likely include rob grannies purse, steal from the donation box, eat four time my weight at the buffet to get your "money's worth", budge in line, spit in public, and of course not shower for days on end.

My guess is your probably some kind of coward with little or no formal English language instruction, no education to speak of, you can't find a job making an honest dollar because your criminal records are pages long, and you have a restraining order from your ex-girlfriend - you're illegitimate child hates you and you don't pay your child support. What employer would give you a chance.

So YES let me accept your bogus "cheque" Let me be one more innocent victim in your lousy scam.

I really hope you reply to this, because I'm just interested to see what your reply will be.

Oh, and by the way. You Suck At Life!

Have a great day!
Dan

I've asked people before if similar scams actually work, and never gotten a response. Guess I'm not worth their time unless I'm willing to let them invade my asshole.

Great email, excpet for this one line: "...eat four time my weight at the buffet to get your "money's worth"..."

I always pig the fuck out at buffets, after all it is a buffet haha. I guess i don't do it because i'm trying to get my moneys worth as much as i just want to be a slob for a day.

Unfortunately, lots of people still do. That's why the scams are still around (they've been going since the 20's) and so prevalent.

If you go on any of the sites dedicated to fucking with these 419 scammers they all tell you not to point out any mistakes in the scammer's email or chastise them. Basically just don't reply. The scammer's aren't completely stupid and will learn from any criticism you give them. most us here are smart enough to see these scams for what they are, but a lot of people aren't.

This dude doesn't even know what he's doing/huring. He probalby doesn't even understand the scam.

Some guy in Nigeria is paying him 1$ an hour to sit in an internet cafe and send these out to mailling lists and respond back. He probably doesn't see 1% of any "successful" scam. Just like the chinese gold farmers on MMO's. They're just employees.

I'm surprised he actually responded to your email. Usually they don't.

He must be a newb

Replying is a waste of time in my opinion. People who resort to this not only wont be touched by your email, but most likely wont even be able to understand most of it.

You still got baited in from the first email. It's so fucking easy to tell these cunts apart from real buyers, right from the first email. Usually I don't even reply to stupid tire-kicking buyers who email you saying shit like "Does the sunroof squeek when it's exactly halfway until being fully closed?", but these idiots just give it away with the generic responses they send out. Anytime you get a generic email that says anything like "Is your item, vehicle, service, etc. still for sale?" that's when you know it's a scam. If I don't see the model of my car in the email or in the subject line, trash bin right away.

EDIT: lol that fucker was so lazy he didn't even type "vehicle" in the first email, he just referred to it as your "post".

This is not the first time I have been approached by scammer. Once I was renting out my house, a guy from england ( supposedly ) actually called me on the phone, said he was going to send me a check. so I played along and he actually did, the check looked really authentic, I had a friend who worked at a bank trace the numbers. They were from all over, transit from Edmonton, institution from Ontario.

Of course I played this guy as long as I could . I even recorded our conversation... I should try to find the recording for you guys to listen.

at one point he was talking to me about work, ( he claimed he was a children doctor) I asked if he had heard of the Bears Paw Children Hospital which of course doesn't exist. He said he had heard of it. lol.

It is a bit of a waste of time replying, but every once and a while you get a good laugh out of these things.

Almost had me hooked with the "devoted christian" line, because we know that anybody who says that MUST be legitimate and not out to rip you off :rolleyes:
