Scamming the Scammers!

Postby dcunning30 » Thu Aug 09, 2007 12:02 pm

We're all are familiar with the Nigerian email scammers.  This is priceless!  This guy turned the scam on to one of these scammers and it's brilliant!   Be warned, it's a long read but he took this scammer for a long, long ride!

;D ;D ;D ;D

A most excellent reverse-scam; masterful.

They actually did a pretty good job with the sketch...

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

Has inspired me to start doing the same. Going to try and initiate a scambait tonight with a letter which was well written and obviously a scam. The "lady" just lost her husband and son and wants to donate money her husband left behind, of course.   I'm going to start this SLOWLY and carefully and see what happens. Perhaps I can get a wood carved head of me as well!

Oh My God!!! ROFLMAO...How stupid is this person(the scammer)? Every document and nearly every mailing the the "victim" sent had clues of setting a trap. The shipping receipt from "Klingon Shipping" listed delivery as via rowboat, for crying out loud. ;D ;D ;D
