            David Hoggard's take on local politics and life in general from Greensboro, NC
        

Saturday, January 10, 2004

I have two fish on the line.  If you will remember I wrote earlier about the many "business opportunities" (read scam) that I have been receiving from various African nations and decided to play along in the interest of educating the masses to the fraud involved (not really, see the last paragraph for my true motivation).

Meet Odiaka Bosa, a Bank Director who needs to transfer $29.9M to my bank account before his government siezes it..  He is the one I previously sent a form letter to that you can generate from here.  

Mr. Bosa has replied and is pleased and very thankful... ("THANK GOD YOU HAVE NOT STARTED ANY DEALINGS WITH THE PERSON") that I didn't fall for the outrageous deception contained in an offer that I told him I had received from yet another African nation to transfer $30M to my bank account.  I have just explained to Mr. Bosa that $30M is alot more than $29.9M and asked him to justify why I should not go for the whole enchilada.

Also, meet Barrister Tijani Ahmed (who after only two exchanges refers to me as a brother).  In a separate thread of emails he is offering a puny $5.1M that he claims is owed to a dead client of his (David Arse... yeah, I got it) who expired tragically in... none other than... surprise

He is pleased that I am so sincere but has become a bit frustrated and says that, "WE NEED TO TALK ORALLY" (there must be some other orifice that he is used to speaking through or he wouldn't have specified, I guess).

In our initial exchanges (scroll way down), "Brother" Tijani has been kind enough to provide me with the "specimen" that will get that troublesome money transferred  to its rightful place in my account.  The "specimen" is replete with a description of the roads that Ahmed's dead client built and for which is owed the $5.1M to Arse's missing "heirs".  "Mr. David (that's me)" decided to cool him down a bit with the same, but slightly revised, letter that I orginally sent to much-less-personable-so-far Mr. Bosa.  I am so looking forward to Ahmed's reply.

I just love screwing with people who screw with me when I get the opportunity.  Ahmed has called my fax line two times so far; at the least I am costing him some international land line time.  I will keep up with this until I get bored of it.  Now that I have set up my "stories" (a cool Radio feature, BTW)", I will simply copy the email exchanges to the episodes.
