Anyone else do this? I've been reading a lot of Letters on 419eater.com and decided to give it a go.

At the moment I have 1 hooked at the moment and im trying to think of how I can mess with him.


Email from him:
Good day.

TRANSFER OF US$ 27.5 MILLION INTO A PERSONAL/COMPANY OFFSHORE ACCOUNT. Based on the information gathered from the Ministry of Trade & Industry, we intend to solicit your assistance on this transaction with you on the assumption that you will not disappoint us.

I am Dr.Peter lala, a director in the Federal ministry of health and socila services Lagos Nigeria.

We have Twenty Seven Million, Five Hundred Thousand U.S. Dollars (US$ 27.5) which we made over time from our inflated contracts in my Ministry (Federal Ministry of Health and Social Service).

We are seeking your assistance and permission to remit this amount into your account or any other nominated account you can provide for us. Your commission will be 25% of the total sum, 5% for expenses and the remaining 70% is for my colleagues and myself.

Could you please notify me of your acceptance to carry out this transaction urgently by sending e-mail only on the receipt of this message. Kindly, acknowledge the receipt of this letter by sending to me a copy of this letter and also include your private Telephone and Fax number. I shall in turn inform you of the modalities of a formal application to secure the necessary approvals for the immediate release of this fund into your account.

Thanks,

DR.PETER LALA.

My reply:
Hello to you Dr. Peter Lala.

First off, thank you for your kind email.

I've been speaking with my fellow Clergy men and we may be interested in helping you.
You see- I'm head of the Church of Lolism, my name is Reverend I.A.M.A. Cunningchap.

We are a small group of Churches which raise funds for the less fortunate. We give quarterly Donations and Supplementary Grants to build new Churches & Schools. In fact, just four days ago my Church donated £400,000 Pounds Stirling to a small Sub Contracting firm to build a new School in Uganda.

But back on topic- It is against my Church's policy to handle that serious amount of monies from a non-charitable organization. It's just not Kosher my friend.

Please advise of what is required and I shall meet with my fellow clergymen to discuss if we may be able to help you, or get someone who can.

When contacting me, please use the reference "8624/a2"


God bless you my Son,

Reverend I.A.M.A Cunningchap.
Church of Lolism Group Inc.

So I came home at lunch to find a reply from him:

Attn: Reverend I.A.M.A Cunningchap..

Thak you for your prompt response to my email message to you and hereby request that you should forward to me immediately on receipt of this message your full personal information such as; age, present occupation, valid address, telephone and fax numbers including your true and correct mobile telephone and copy of your Int'l Passport pages so that I can immediately initiate the proceses of his transaction that will register your name and position you very well as its true and bonafide beneficiary. On Confirmation of the above requested information, you will be given further details on the procedures of its final and successful conclusion to you. You have the liberty to select a very close confidant and whom you can repose a great deal of personal confidence to handle the conclusion of this matter since you know that this transaction is certainly not coming from charitable organisation but from the government of this country.

Dr. Peter Lala.

Now this is where I'd like some creative ideas. I'm thinking of getting him to do random things to join The Church of Lolism.
 
Tell them that you need proof that you are talking to the right person (for whatever made up reason) and get them to take a photo of themselves with a sign reading "I am a prat" which will identify them. :)

Pick a phrase which is very colloquiel though, otherwise it won't happen. :P
 
Haha yeah, or HOVIS, do they have the mighty Hovis in Nigera?


I've seen a few of them getting tattoo's with 'BAITED BY SUCHANDSUCH' I was maybe thinking of "PROPERTY OF LOLISM"
 
If you want him to join the church of lolism - get him to fill out a form you've made up - in that, make it as difficult and ridiculous as possible... or even pick an online application for something like an IT job and edit it to suit by adding in random questions about his sexuality [be as rude as you want with this part]

... of course, you'll have to get a picture of him - and to prove that it's him and not some random photo - he'll have to have a shoe [i'm sure you can be imaginative about this!!] balanced on his head or something...
 
I like the questionaire idea, I'll try combine a lot of online questionaires together to make over 300 questions or something.


Keep the ideas coming!
 
Shoe?! This is the OcUK forums, it has to be a loaf of bread, and as it is for such a large sum of money it needs to be more than one loaf, say as many as he can balance on his head..
 
Another guy on some other forum I go on managed to get a guy to tattoo the outline of a giant penis on both his arms.

He sent pics of it getting done and everything! Hope this goes well for you :D
 
I've only ever replied to one, it was supposedly to do with a large account that needed transferring from a bank in Thailand, I replied saying my brother was based a few meters down the road from the bank and would pop in tomorrow to discuss it.

He replied to say he had made a typo and that the bank was in a completely different country! despite being called the bank of thailand! :D
 
I used to have far too much fun doing this.

Try get the whole village involved, they make for the better pictures. A loaf of bread won't do! Make up a weird ritual your church practises and demand to see pictures of the villagers performing it. Have them dance around big "OMGLOL" statues etc.
 
yeah, i got a spoof paypal - update my details email the other day. i inputted a load of made up rubbish. Should keep em busy :D
 
A quick update, I just replied to his email. I wonder if he'll care to join? [You god damn better believe he will] I think i'll get him to go out in his village and gain some support for Lolism (Have him print off a poster I create and get him to be photographed with 10+ supporters to gain the Highest ranks and access to my sort code and account number

Hi Dr. Lala,

Thanks once again for your immediate response.

I'm saddened to hear that this is not a Charitable organisation. Which alas means I cannot take part in it.

The only other way this money may be handled is if you were a member of the Holy Church of Lolism. I wouldn't like you to ignore your previous beliefs, or force you to start worshipping our beliefs. But if your interested in becoming a member and wish to further this deal please reply.

In good trust I will furnish you with some details.

Age: 55 (12/121953)
Occupation: Founder/Director & Financial Controller of The Holy Church of Lolism Group Inc.
Address(Personal): 69 Plugurbum Avenue, Fecalpond, United Kingdom, BU2 5EX
Contact number, Passport: Only available to Church Associates.


I also attach herewith recent Photograph of myself in the Church.

Regards and may God watch over you,
