Play with their head for a while, let them think you will give the okay and when he is just about ready to 'deposit' the money say the car is sold.

They tried to get a mate of mine on two separate occasions and the emails were identical both times. We sent them a series of emails back on a daily basis and we started asking THEM to send US stuff. It was hilarious to read their responses and in the end they gave up. P1ss them off as much as they do, everyone else!

Bender Member 178 Member For: 17y 4m 29d Location: Newcastle Posted 23/04/08 11:51 PM Share Posted 23/04/08 11:51 PM Ask for his business ABN etc.If you have only given him bank details he can't do a thing with them. So just don't hand over those CC details :-)If you get the money all well and good if he trys to screw things around you obviously cut the deal off.

Fat-Tony Member 5,364 Member For: 19y 1m 14d Posted 24/04/08 12:20 AM Share Posted 24/04/08 12:20 AM Sorry but the God bless at the end of the email is a sign that it is fraudulent. Time and time again the shifty emails I receive and they end with that, and also result with an abusive reply.

XF Falcon <put funny sh*t here> Member 3,365 Member For: 18y 5m 27d Gender: Male Location: Perth, NOR Posted 24/04/08 04:23 AM Share Posted 24/04/08 04:23 AM (edited) LOL theres a website, cant remember its name, but they full on trick these people hey!They make up fake names, like "Iluv Wang" and have full on conversations with them. Then they say things like they dont believe them..etc and to prove they are real, to take a photo of themselves holding up a sign with the persons name.Pretty much, most of the time, they will get a photo back from the nigerian scammer holding up a sign with "ILUV WANG" written on it.Its friggin hillarious!!
