The scammers' emails are posted in normal type. My responses and replies are posted in bold italics. Explanations are posted in normal type, blue italics. Occasionally there will be guest emails between other personalities from deep within the recesses of my mind that will interact with the intended victim character and the scammer. These will be color coded as the voices in my head command me to do at that particular time.
Scam 1 - Mr. Li Le Song of the Hang Seng Bank
Synopsis - Li tries to convince me to help smuggle some former Saddam Hussein henchman's money out of a Hong Kong bank. I try to insist upon a meeting. Li stops emailing me after I go gay on him.
Scam 2 - The National Lottery & Steve White
Synopsis - The National Lottery declares me a winner, but I need to send money via Western Union to the shipping company in order to receive my money. I more or less just play it straight with this guy, but I had to be a little bit colorful in order to avoid being bored by "Steve White".
Scam 3 - The Ecowas E-Lottery International Program & Roseline Abaseki
Synopsis - I won some obscure lottery out of Nigeria. I have to send money to "Roseline" in order to pay fees on my winnings. I went with the loser alcoholic role on this one.
Scam 4, Part I - Frank Okoh & the Late Steve Anderson's Bank Account
Scam 4, Part II
Scam 4, Part III
Scam 4, Part IV
Synopsis - Steve Anderson is dead. Frank Okoh wants me to help him steal Steve's money, since Steve has no heirs. I decided to pretend to be mentally challenged for this one, which isn't a big stretch for those who know me. I dragged the exchange out as long as I could, but Frank began to bore me, and I really do need some sort of incentive to email these losers (ie: have some fun at it).
Scam 5 - Reuben Chizea & Another Dead Client's Bank Account
Synopsis - Reuben Chizea (aka Albert) wants me to share some money from a dead client's bank account. All I have to do is provide some doctored documents via email and I get half the money. Imagine that! Unfortunately, Reuben is doing business with Ishmael Laek Phisch, who believes that everything is a conspiracy ever since being anally probed by aliens. For some reason Reuben needed a lot of prodding just to keep up with the emailing. He eventually just dropped everything. Even scammers have to have some sort of work ethic. Hell, if Reuben worked for my scam ring, I'd fire his ass in a heartbeat!
Scam 6 - Elite Stars Employment Recruitment
Synopsis - Elite Stars (a Russian company representing models) is seeking good ol' American help. They want Americans to work out of their home to file various transactions. I (me being Harold Sanchez) haven't worked in 2 years, ever since my bitch of a wife left me, so I really need the "work". In the end, I guess I just wasn't what they were looking for. Shucks.
Scam 7 - Howard Cecil and his Amazing Email from Outta Nowhere
Synopsis - Howard Cecil emailed me directly, using my name right off the bat (rather unusual, since they typically send out spam emails by the butt load rather than to a specific individual). He emailed the Yahoo! account that I used to mess with "Steve White" & "Roseline Abaseki" as noted in scams # 2 & 3. I suspect that one of the scammers mentioned was pissed off and just really wants me to fall for one of their retarded scams. I played along with "Howard", but it didn't last too long.
Scam 8 - The Bank Giro Loterij International
Synopsis - The Bank Giro Loterij International, based in The Netherlands, has selected none other than me to be their most recent lottery winner. It should be noted that The Bank Giro Loterij is a real lottery. Unfortunately, scammers have been hijacking their name and trying to use the name recognition of this real organization for their own personal gain. The correspondence ended with the scammer sending me a virus via email once he was thoroughly pissed at me.
