Re: Why do scammers always seem to come from poor countries?

As Bertje said, scammers come from everywhere. It's not so much that one particular country is more likely to have fraudsters in it, but more that scams, like cuisine, dress, and everything else, tend to differ from region to region. So the criminals will act differently everywhere. As an American, ...

Re: Need help !! Is this an Online Dating Scam?

It is a scam. The way it works is they will ask you for a series of fees to receive the (fake) inheritance which will never come. Please immediately stop all contact with this person and block them on any social media, whatsapp, etc. where you may have added them. As his criminal has your phone numb...

Re: Heavy Rain in Africa

@Padme: So the "Alaye" (another example ) is a kind of secret code to other lads, so that they don't waste time on each other? Are there any other hidden code words I might stumble upon? In that same conversation in the image you posted, right after he says Alaye, he says How far. How far...

Re: Heavy Rain in Africa

They do. Especially in something like romance scams on platforms like Facebook. Also, more common than it actually happening, is the lad's fear that it is happening. If they're a scammer pretending to be someone else, maybe the person they're talking to is as well.

Re: Heavy Rain in Africa

The reason he put out those few "Alaye"s was he was trying to see if perhaps you are a scammer too. Sometimes lads come across other lads when scamming. Throwing this out is their way of finding out if they're wasting their time talking to one of their own.

Yes. It was created by a member of 419eater many years ago and continues to be an excellent way to bring lads to your inbox.

scamnoms welcome. Romance scammers vary widely in terms of how they operate and many are not only romance scammers but dabble in other types of scams as well. Personally some of my longest running and entertaining (to me anyway) baits have been with romance scammers. But they can also be very tediou...

Congrats on keeping the lad on the hook and getting his bank details! A couple of points, to help your baits, and more importantly, to help real victims: Do not give lads any fake passport.

Even if this bait is done, can we get more from the wealthy antiquities dealer please? I love the idea of this character. Seems like it has so many possibilities and story lines that could develop with lads trying to convince you of all the rare finds they could dig up.

Certainly something to brag about! "Trophies" may be entertaining, but receiving a lad's bank details and reporting it as fraud really hurts the lad - in their wallet! Congratulations.
