Everyone knows all about this scam. It is the one where you get an e-mail from some foreign country that says they need to get millions of dollars released to them, but cannot do it unless they get someone else to open an account for them in another country. In return for doing this the person who opens the account for them is supposedly going to get a big cut on the millions that they are saying they are entitled to.
Of course this is a scam. Some distraught girl claiming she is an heir to the Rancilio Silvia estate, or the daughter of a royal family who is now in a prison camp will contact thousands of people looking for any of them to fall for the scam. They basically make their money by trying to get you to pay a lawyer for “papers” that allow this individual to transfer the funds.
Since this is a well known scam many people have tried to scam the scammers, but until I saw a recent topic on the Paranormal/Conspiracy Forum at GameFaqs.com telling a tale of messing with these scammers there hasn’t been a really great one. Fortunately for us the great user santos el helper of GameFaqs.com has put together an epic piece of comedy for us all to enjoy.
This is a pretty long story so I will have to make it into Quite a few different posts, but I will link them together so that they are easy to navigate. Though it is long, it is one of the funniest things I have seen on the forums in some time so you will not regret the read, nor waiting for updtaes. Since GameFaqs.com purges messages on the board, and locks topics after 500 posts, I asked if I could preserve the commentary of the topic and santos el helper graciously allowed me to post it here. I have not edited out the scammer’s e-mail addresses for obvious reasons. Enjoy!
Part one of ???-The Set Up:
Blue indicates santos el helper’s emails. His name for the correspondence is “Buht Fokker”.
Bold black are the scammer. “Goodness” is the name of the person who is looking for help. All Scammer mails will be bold black, however as there are a few from another scammer claiming to be an attorney.
santo’s comments are in red.
Santos note: My first ever scambaiting! Taking a cue from a Monkey Pox member at Ebola Monkey Man, I used the Usenet group, news.admin.net-abuse.sightings, and emailed this bastard. Unfortunately, I didn’t save their stupid story, but I got “her” to re-tell it later on.
From Buht Fokker to Goodness
Dear Goodness,
Oh my God! I heard about your plight from a colleague of mine (a Mr. Rimjob). My name is Buht Fokker, the Chairman/CEO of DVDA Inc. located in the heart of Denver , Colorado. I’m sure you’ve heard of my company, as we are the largest distributors of fleshlights in the US. We are in the process of trying penetrate the world market with our products, as we feel there is a large gap…in the market. You sound like a person who understands all too well the virtues of penetration. Especially double penetration. You see, we’re testing how profitable our product would be in various territories.
I’m sorry, once I get talking about fleshlights, it’s almost impossible for me to stop.
I feel for you, and I would like to one day feel you, too. I will do everything in my power to ensure that you get to the US safely, and that the transfer of your money is a speedy, and pain-free process.
Please do email me back, as I would very much like to discuss this matter further.
Kind regards,
Buht Fokker
Chairman/CEO DVDA Inc.
