Pretty much everything they'd need for identity theft, eh? And to think that people fall for this stuff.
Sep 20, 2004 Urza link
really.. I faked a passport and licence (the license is soo smeared it's not even funny, it's all messed up. i blaimed it on a broken scanner.)

and sent them to "mr. miller"

Then sent an email to the origional scammer:
Dear Mr. Anderson,

I recieved an email from Mr. Miller today with the requirements to claim the fund. He required a photo of my driver's licence and passport, which i have attached to this email as well.

The drivers license is horribly blured as my scanner broke while it was scanning, please forgive this.

The required sum of money needed to claim the fund is 6500 euros, which I have availible to me. However, there is a slight problem. It is stored in CDs in a bank, and to withdraw the money early will result in a fine. I have gathered as much money as i can to cover the cost of this fine, but i am $20 short of what I need.

I have exhausted all avalible resources in the attempt to gain enough money to cover this fee, but my attepts have failed. Please help me with this, as if i can secure the $20 we will both profit conserably when our deal is compleated.

"Pretty much everything they'd need for identity theft, eh? And to think that people fall for this stuff."

Ahhhh... I was wondering what they were trying to do, not asking for cash...

Oy, 20 Euros short? Sorry, but that's pretty unbelievable... I'd have said you were more like 3000 Euros short or something...
Sep 20, 2004 mcnut link
$20 don't you mean 20 euros? oops? ehh he won't notice...
Sep 21, 2004 Urza link
I think they're trying to lure me to holland where they'll kill me and assume my identify.

Anyway, i got 2 emails today. 1 from "Mr. Miller" and the other from "Mr. Anderson" (Click Click Squeek as i call him now)

From Mr. Miller

Attn: Sam Mast,
I received all the information’s you sent regarding to conclusion of
this transaction.

Note you are required to be to be in Holland for the final endorsement
of the release document on
or before the 28th of September. It will be the best time to attend to
you.

Our schedule is tight now because we are facing the last financial
quota of the year.

Please don’t fail to come with the required cash money of 6,500 euros
which will be use for
administrative charges, also use for securing of beneficiary
certificate on your behalf that will
authenticate your claims.

Send your flight schedule early; it will help us pick you from the
airport on your arrival. Please
call me for an oral discussion which will help us solidify our
arrangement.

Thanks while I wait to receive you soon.

Regards,

Bryan Miller

So i sent this to Mr. Miller:

Mr. Miller,

I would call you, but due to a number of large storms in my area, my phone service is down. I was told it should be back up by the 8th of October. As soon as my service is restored i will call you.

September 29th is a very large problem for me. In order to fly to Holland, i will have to spend $500 on a plane ticket. This in itself is no problem at all.

The problem is getting the money. I have a little over $10,000 in CDs. However, if i withdraw any of that money before January 3rd 2005, i will be fined $300.

I have been assured by Mr. Anderson that I will be compleatly repayed any costs, so I have no problem with spending any money on travel and a hotel.

But at this moment I only have $280, and the bank will not let me withdraw the 6500 and 500 for a ticket without the full 300. I have tried to get the remaining $20 without luck.

If you could help me with this slight problem, i will repay you as soon as this deal is compleat.

--------------

So.. anyone feel like giving Mr. Miller a call? say hi, ask him to send $20? a phone call will make him much less suspicious of

Now, for the letter from Click Click Squeek

Dear Mr Sam,

Please since you have contacted the security firm,
please i specified it clear to you that any expenses
with incurre in the process of this transaction,
will immediately be deducted once this funds are
transferred into your own nominated bank account in
your own country.

Please just help me to see that you meet up with all
the requirements of the security firm immediately,so
that we can conclude this transaction as soon as
possible and then i will be proceeding to your
country for investment.

I awaits for your urgent response.
Regards,

Mr Willian Anderson.

So the dick doesn't want to help me out eh? We'll see if I can weaken him a little. He'll just have to understand that I am the one with the money, no matter how nonexistant it really is, and that if he wont have even a little faith in me, i cant be expected to trust him now can i?
--------------------
Mr. Anderson,

Mr. Miller contacted me today telling me that all of my information has been accepted and it would be best if i fly to Holland by the 29th.

This is no problem, as long as i can get the cash to fly there.

I have plenty of money, it is no problem, but in order to get that that money, i have to pay a $300 fee. As my nexy paycheck does not come untill October 6th, i can not meet the fee to withdraw the money.

I currently have $280, all i am asking for is $20, nothing more. With this and the money i have, I will withdraw the $6500 that is needed.

Please help me with this, I am only asking for $20 so we both may gain a large sum.

-Sam-
------------------

Depending on how he responds to that (they probably think they have me hook, line, and sinker) i'll try to make stuff happen

hehe.. this is all pretty amusing to me, i gotta say. I'm fairly certain this can't be good kharma for anybody, but hey, it's not my kharma :)

I wouldn't advertize too heavily about that forged passport thing, tho. The secret service doesn't smile on that very much, even it if is in the name of scamming a scammer. Especially if the serial number just happens to match somebodies somewhere..

If you get that $20 out of them, i'll laugh like a little girl at a bubble factory
Sep 21, 2004 Urza link
Man, that passport.. Everything on it came from google. any moron who puts their passport on the web for google to find is a moron. And i'm glad to know that this is entertaining someone other than me.:) this one of the funnest things i've tried in a while.

As for good kharma, I feel great! :D
Sep 22, 2004 roguelazer link
You do know that regardless of the circumstances, it's a crime to use a falsified passport for any purpose, right?
Sep 22, 2004 Icarus link
It's debatable that he is "using" a falsified passport in this case...
Sep 22, 2004 Sheean link
Meh, who could press charges against him anyway?

"You're going to jail for scamming a nigerian scammer"

Nah, I don't see that happening..

Attn:Mr Sam,

I received your mail which you previously sent me regarding this
transaction, which you specify
that you are able to fly to Holland, for the conclussion of this
transaction, and that was why this
date was slated for you.

As you can see, we are very busy in the office at the moment, so i
suggest to you now that what you
have to do, is just to know how you can come up with this fees, and be
in our office at the
appointed date so that you can sign for these documents and onward
tranfer of this fund into your
own norminated bank account in your country.

Thanks while i waits for your immediate response.

Regards,

Bryan Miller.

I hate tight people...
--------------------
Mr. Miller

I have so far done everything you have requested. I have sent you a copy of my passport and drivers license and have prepared to make arrangements to fly out and meet you with the specified amount of money.

You need to understand, i have exhausted all of my possible sources of funds and am still $20 short of the required fee to withdraw the 6500 + travel costs.

Without this money, it will be impossible for me to complete my end of the deal.

I have done everything you asked, and have shown a large amount of trust in you. $20 is not a very large sum, and I will pay you back as soon as the deal is complete. Consider this a show of trust if you will.

I assure that I will follow through with everything if i get the required amount. This is as good as a written contract, and if I fail to complete the deal i could be fined or thrown in jail.

Mr. Anderson's letter came as quite a shock to me... For once he had very few spelling errors, which is a first.

Dear Mr Sam,

I am highly disturbed now with the kind of note you are dropping to me
now,as regards to this transaction, please if you know that you are not
serious with me in making sure that this funds are transferred into
your own nominated bank account,kindly notify me immediately so let me no
what else to do.
I am waiting for your urgent response, after receiving this mail.

Regards,

Mr Willian Anderson.
-----------------
Is he suspicious or is he telling me “Sure, I’ll send you $20, where do you want it?” I get a feeling he’s suspicious, so i’ll work with that.
-----------------
Mr. Anderson,

I assure you I am completely serious about this business deal. I fully intend to get the money transfered to my account. By agreeing to help you in my second email to you, i was entering into a contract to help you. By failing to try and help you, I would breaching the contact, a illegal act which could result in a large fine as well as jail time for me.

I am willing to present the required 6500 euro fee as well. I just need 20 USD so i can withdraw with 6500 euros from my Cash Deposits prematurely.

I have done everything in my power to acquire the $20, but have failed this. I have done everything you have asked so far. I have presented my passport and driver's license as requested. I feel this was quite a large show of trust on my part, and am hoping you feel the same way.

All i am asking is that you send me $20 so I may pay the fee required to withdraw the 6500 euros and fly to Holland to claim the 21 million USD in the security firm. Consider this a show of trust if you want. $20 is a small sum compared to the amounts of money we are posed to collect. Please do not let it stand in the way of our business deal.

Now we wait for a responce.. Maybe it will be tommorow, and he'll ask for my addy to send me the cash. in that case i'll have him send it to a random school which will be given instructions to forward it to my school.
Sep 22, 2004 danielky link
You put that you could get put in jail for lying? That was really smooth...

hehe. Now he'll sue you once he doesn't get the money and then you'll really be short $20. Good luck...
Sep 22, 2004 Suicidal Lemming link
Sue a fake identity! Great idea!
Sep 22, 2004 Pyro link
Yes, especially one that you were attempting to scam out of 5600 USD! If the scammer can sue Urza, then Urza should be able to countersue. Guess who would win. :P
Sep 23, 2004 danielky link
oh yeah... fake id... I remember now......

/me thinks he's stoned and doesn't know it.
