Scam (Internet and Otherwise) Omnibus Thread

They want shiny lucre, not filthy lucre.

Just the usual poor English.

Good Morning, Sir! I hope my good morning text will bring a smile to your face at the very beginning of the day. I thank you so much.

Your unconditional love and care keep me going! Good morning, sir. I hope you have a nice day ahead of you.

Dr John,

Thank you, have a complery day.

Phone call from Mr. Anderson(no, I didn’t do my Agent Smith voice. Because it sucks) Besides, the clown wouldn’t get it.
I promised as soon as my bank opens, I would be asking for a trace on the wire transfer.

Mr. Anderson
Back from the bank, a trace has been started. They said it typically takes 1-2 business days.

Peter Mosse

Why do I have this strange feeling I won’t hear back before the bank closes for the weekend? (The bank I “use” actually is not open weekends)

Doesn’t your bank, like all official sanctioned American banks, kindly close down for the week long American celebration of Thanksgiving? Maybe it should.

As stupid and ignorant scammers tend to be, that one would be too easy to check and they’re likely to know it’s not true.
I prefer to keep things plausible yet difficult to check. This way, it keeps this going until Monday. If they insist on getting the fees before then, I have eight more fake methods of payment to use. Some of which might be “accidentally” put in the mail due to a misunderstanding of instructions.

Phone call from Mr. Anderson that they can’t wait for the transfer and there are additional customs charges so he’s arranging for a domestic money mule account.

Hello Mr. Peter Mosse,

This is in accordiance with our telephone conversation, afetr my meet with the customs authority as i told,

they demand for the declaraction of content form where all the list of the content is registered,

so i have attached the document to this mail, so go through it so that we can take immediate action.

because of the time wasted i want you to make the payment through JPmorgan local account, so that our agent

settle with the customs authority, with advanced payment method, the bill is 13,990 Euros, below is the payment information.

Mr Anderson

Attached was one of the classic scammer fucked up Photoshopped certificates.
I noticed that one of the seals had a very fine line of print.
Zoomed in.

I sent another phony transfer receipt.

Hello Mr Peter,

Mr Anderson.

(Good luck with that)

Good Morning, sunshine! I hope the day ahead brings you the comfort and love that you deserve! thank you for everything you have been doing for me, my god will continue to bless you

Good morning Sir :heart: Let the sunshine be so bright and remove all the worries from your life. Have a delightful day Sir.

Good morning, Dr. John,
I have a feeling this will be a good day.

2 calls in quick succession from Mr. Anderson. I didn’t pick up because I’m “at work”.
(Google Voice Transcripts, his accent played hell with getting the actual message)

Oh, yeah, I think you got to get a call, you know.

Have dinner listen, I just want to tell you that time. I’m still working because the money. You can’t have not arrived. Okay, the payments haven’t arrived. Why don’t you put a dress and see if it’s taking so long? Right. I think I’m from Jeffrey mother and it should be at least I’m waiting 24 hours so you can transfer. Yeah, okay. Get back to me once a week.

I listened to both messages and can’t decipher what he’s saying.

I feel that the key to understanding this, is that she’s Jeffrey’s mother. And you need to wait 24 hours.

Jeff’s mom must be a patient lady.

Wow, such sweet talk! I think he wants to date you now. Watch out if he compliments your nice ass.

They think they’re being complimentary and have no idea what they’re actually saying.
And I have a fantastic ass.

Mr. Anderson,

I apologize for missing your calls, I was in the office. Security does not allow personal phone use on the premises.

Peter Mosse

Which he obviously wants to see in a dress.

Mr. Anderson is the one who wants to see me in a dress. (Actually, I expect he was telling me to get dressed as if I needed to be told that.)
It was Dr. John who made the reference to sunshine and all the sweet talk.

To be honest, we all want to see you in a dress. :grin:

Good morning Sir Peter how are you and everything around you i hope fine and in good health , Sir to be honest with you i have being very worried because of the happenings in this our transaction and yesterday i wrote to the security company and also to the diplomat and i was told that the diplomat is still in Spain with the Spanish authorities because he is waiting for the paid money to reflect into the account to enable him settle with the authorities so that he will proceed to the State with our fund ,

Sir i am so worried about the delays and i don’t want anything to happen to that fund and also i do not want the Spanish authorities to seize or confiscate the fund because of all this delays Sir Please try to recheck again on the payment you made maybe your bank is holding the payment back from reflecting into the given account because this is almost 4 to 5 days you made the payment , We really have to act fast for things not to delay anymore to avoid any Governmental intervention into our fund ,

Please try and do something call the diplomat and plead with him to be patient because according to the security company they said that the diplomat is not happy because of all this delays because he is spending money on hotel bills and he also has other duties at hand , once again thank you very much for all your good spirited efforts towards this our transaction and i believe that soon we will celebrate together .

Yous Dr John
