Interview With a Convicted 419 Scammer
An anonymous reader writes "Scam awareness website www.scam-detectives.co.uk has published a two part interview with convicted Nigerian 419 scammer, 'John.' 'John' talks about his experiences of scam victims, how he gains their trust and convinces them to part with their money, and how he would go back for another 'bite' after the original scam, posing as a law enforcement official who has apprehended the scammer and recovered the funds ... for a fee, of course."
It cost me $10 to get a copy of my accident report. A photocopy of one sheet of paper.
If it's not on fire, it's a software problem.
I'm sure the evidence room officer has found a better stereo for his house by now. Your stereo equipment is in the dumpster.
I know I'm preaching to the choir, but it just goes to show you. NEVER trust ANYONE on the Ineternet. Not even your friends.
It's not so bad. I trust my good friend AC here on Slashdot. I admit I haven't figured out yet why he's always posting these garbled text strings that include links to a website with a man radically deforming his own anus, however.
Maybe it's a secret code?
Well, "fool me twice... you can't get fooled again."
I guarantee that it's not sitting in the evidence room still. Thanks, btw!
But how do I know I can trust you?
MMO Quests are like orgasms:
You may solo them, I prefer them in a group.
Yes I lived a poor childhood and was convicted, but I am now reformed. During my time in prison I met one man named John Holmes who has hid a stash of $25,000,000 (twenty five million dollars) but is unable to retrieve it, I offer you the opportunity to assist us by posting this on Slashdot and providing an advance on $1000 (one thousand dollars) for administrative purposes. Once I have received the moneys I will transfer $2,500,000 to a bank account of your choice. Thank you and God bless -John
How can I schedule an interview with a 419 scammer, and am I allowed to bring a baseball bat?
I've abandoned my search for truth; now I'm just looking for some useful delusions.
I think it would be gloriously ironic if we one day found out goatse was a steganographic image put up by somebody trying to convey some secret information thinking nobody would look at it for too long, only to have it repeatedly linked on a site full of crypto nerds and hackers.
This is my sig. There are many like it but this one is mine.
