Hi Guys, As you can see i am new to the forum.
I currently have 2 sets of beardies and a year old Bosc.

Anyway, in reply to this thread about being scammed, here is a following email conversation between a friend from another forum and a scammer in Canada, and is for real.

Please read and you will see how they work and will help you identify scammers when they contact you.
Please excuse any swearing and spelling mistakes.

My reply:-

Hi,

I agree to what you propose, however, I would like an extra £20 on top of the £40 purchace price.
This would be to cover my costs for the time I needed to make a cash withdrawel and for the weston union transfer.

Please let me know if this is okay by you and I will then forward my details to you so that we can procceed with the transaction.



All The Best.





He is very generous, he got back to me:-

GOOD TO HEAR FROM YOU.I WILL LIKE YOU TO DEDUCT THE
£20 FROM THE EXCESS FUNDS YOU ARE MEANT TO SEND TO THE
SHIPPING AGENT.HOPE THIS IS UNDERSTAND BY YOU.I WILL
LIKE YOU TO GET BACK TO ME WITH YOUR CONTACT
INFORMATION SO THAT THE PAYMENT WOULD BE ISSUE TO YOU.

CHRIS






Finally, I could'nt be bothered to f**k about with him any more, I sent this:-

Hi, Chris,

Thank you very much for your speedy reply. I am so glad that I have finally sold this trailer to you, as I desperatly need the money for a pioneering heart operation for my pet hamster Dave. Without this, he will die and my life will be empty.

Also, many thanks for agreeing to the extra £20.
With this I plan to get sh*t faced on drink and drugs.

Right, what was it?, you wanted my address.
How about I send you my credit card number and PIN aswell?
That would be good would'nt it, then you could really try and rip me off.

Do you make much money at these scams? Are there still people thick enough to fall for it?



My uncle, Prince Nasoomie Boomboomie The Third from Nigera, is not very happy that you tried to scam me. He says that he is the best scammer in the business and plans to hunt you down and slice off your b*****ks with a machette.
He will then sell you to the Nigerian pigmy sex slave trade, where you will live out your days giving pleasure to countless pigmy pigs.



Have a nice day f**kwitt.

P.S., your emails will be posted on www.dirtbikerejects.co.uk where we will all laugh at your stupidness and lack of ability to get a girlfriend.
