The Captain gets busy
Back to Main Menu

Sometimes things just don't work out the way you thought it would.

Take our latest scam-bait for instance.  Mr. Wilson Victor had discovered a couple of million dollars left in a South African bank account.  The account's owner, a Phillip Morris had died (presumably from smoking), and left no heirs.

So, we responded, and waited.  Giving up, we moved onto Senator Luisa Estrada, whose late husband hid some trunks filled with loot.  She responded, and we had a conversation going.

You can guess what happened next - Wilson wrote back.  So, we ended up with two baits concurrently, both dealing with Captain Don Morgan USAF, stationed at Area 51, with haunting appearances from the mysterious PT Barnum.
