Deceiving the Con Artist (climax, creo)

"Ya la armaron", asi que me mandan ya todo para que les mande el baro:
Dear Andre,

Thanks for all the information you have supplied to us. But as you rightly pointed out, a transaction of this magnitude cannot be done without involving a legal process from the banks.

Please endeavour to open a Bank account as quickly as possible because nothing can be done without going through the banking process.

Secondly, we will like to know the possibility of your flying down to Dubai, UAE, so that this transaction will be brought to a logical conclusion.

During your visit all "Memorandum of Agreement" will be signed. You will also open a "Domiciliary Bank Account" (Bank Account opened in US$), so that this fund could be easily transferred to your designated account in Mexico.

Meanwhile, with the information supplied so far to us, we will commence immediately to process the relevant documents required to change the fund ownership to your name. But we definitely need a contact telephone number as this is a basic requirement in procurring some Transfer Documents from the local authorities here.

Moreso, you are required to provide our office with the sum of Two Thousand United States Dollars (US$2000), which will be used to swear a "Court Affidavit", before application for the documents will be made in your name. obtaining Court Affidavit in your name is the first step in the whole process since you are not a citizen of this country and such huge amount is coming to your region.

You can send this money through Western Union money transfer to our accountant: Mr Nathaniel Osuji, Dubai, United Arab Emirates

As soon as we receive this money from you, documentations will start immediately.

Thanking you for your understanding and looking forward to hearing from you soonest.

Yours Barrister Steve.



Despues me mandan algo asi como un "Memorandum of agreement", pero ese no lo pongo, estaba tan de hueva que ni yo lo lei.



{{{Luego, unos 4 mails de ida y vuelta que no estaban cagados}}}

Yo le contesto al abogado:
Hey Steve, as I told Mr. Idris some days ago (or perhaps it was in the mail that you never received?, im not very sure), but i said that the agreement is very good and i agree (no pun) with it and I am looking forward to sign it.

As I told you before, I am a photographer, so I am trying to get NEZ, the art magazine that finances most of my trips, to send me to UAE so we can speak in person like you told me.

If you speak to Mr. Idris, please tell him that I am sorry for not updating him in the last few days with the lastest information but I will try to reach him tonight (right now I have to go because my friend Carlos Trejo, the best cebiche cooker in town has invited me and my wife for lunch)


thanks for EVERYTHING
Andrés


2 dias despues, IDRIS me dice:
Hello Brother
How are you and your family? Hope you are fine. We are all fine here waiting for the day we will be delivered from this bondage.
Steve told me you are working hard to realise this transaction but I wondered why you dont have time to write me no matter how brief.
Its important that our communication flows regularly.
Thanks and regards,


A lo que yo contesto:
I know I know, I told Mr. Steve that I would try to reach you after going to dinner with my friend but I cot a very bad diarrea because of the cebiche.

I just recieved my itinerary and I will be able to be at Dubai for 2 or 3 days (the magazine will confirm me on monday about the flights and everything, but they already told me that the trip will start arround April 13)

Anyway, I have almost completed the 2000 Dollars (I had to get my hands dirty to get the money).
Our barrister requested me to send the money via a secure company, but a friend suggested me to give him the money directly since I will be able to give him the money directly at Dubai, but I honestly don't know how safe would it be to carry so much money in my secret pocket. What would you recommend me to do??


Love
Andres


P.S. Please gather all your family to pray for my son Gugo Eugenio, because we had to pause his AIDS treatement for a few days.

.chido la banda

ellos lo buscaron

Tenia ganas de escribir esto desde hace meses, pero flojera>interes hasta hace algunos minutos.
Son algunas de las frases que me llamaron la atencion, de gente que llego a mi blog usando Google:
lin mey
chachipose
aypo
comer popo
poemas con muchas groserias
discos de los telechobis
el pulque como terapia
aniv de la rev
paseos en camello
venganza sutil
jerga de camioneros
recetas de cocina+chistosas


Hay dos que llamaron especialmente la atencion:
alhaji bouba abdullah garba
idris garba

(funciona, funciona!!!!)

Posible interpretacion:
Nadie se lo imaginaba (mas que yo) pero de hecho, hice algo bueno con mi scam a nuestro amigo Idris:
Los gueyes que llegaron aqui buscando "Idris Garba" y esas mamadas, posiblemente fueron salvados de ser estafados.

(eso se siente bien)

Continuemos...

(por cierto, mis faltas de ortografía y eso son a propósito)

Yo a mi amigo Idris:
Hello Idris.
I have got in touch with your lawyer as you requested, he seems like a nice person too.
I hope that Mr. Steve has got in touch with you to explain that I was not in town for the last 4 days, that because of a national parade that was held near my town.

You might be quite anxious to start talking this business, and I agree that its time to start arranging this things. What do you think?


We talk soon my friend.
Andrés G.

Y despues de las "fiestas a benito juarez", el abogado me manda este otro:

HI ANDRES,

I GUESS YOU ARE NOW BACK FROM YOUR HOLIDAYS.

IN MY ACKNOWLEDGEMENT MAIL TO YOU LAST TIME, I ASKED FOR YOUR CONTACT DETAILS, TELEPHONE AND FAX NUMBERS.

WE COULD TALK ON PHONE BEFORE FURTHER DETAILS ARE DIVOURGED BY MY OFFICE.

PLEASE MAY WE HAVE THOSE DETAILS NOW?

THANKS AND REGARDS,

BARRISTER STEVE BOSSMAN.


Y yo le digo:
Hello Mr. Bossman.
I am aware of your request and Im working on it. Sinsce i have no landline, i will have to buy either skype credit or a calling card, so please wait a few days.
Would my contact address also help?

thanks again for your help.
Andrés G.


Y tambien le aviso a Idris:
My dear friend.
I am getting in touch with your lawyer right now. As I told him, im working on the way to be able to communicate by telephone, and I also think that it would be a good idea that we spoke so you can see that I am a person of good (due to the nature of the arrangement that we are making)

I will stay in touch.
Andrés


Ahora ya se empieza a poner bueno. El abogado me pide:

Dear Andres,

As we wait for your lines to operate, I would like to know few other personal things from you which are very vital here.

(1) Your Full Names and Full Contact Addresses

(2) Nature of business you are currently engaged in

(3) Country of origin and country of residence if different from origin

(4) Photo passport size

(5) Marital Status and no of children if any

(6) Bank Account Details with Swift Codes

The essence of these information requested is to enable our office to prepare relevant papers that will enable us secure the necessary fund transfer documents from the local authorities here in Dubai.

Note that this fund will be reassigned in your name as the beneficiary, before it could be possible to transfer it to your account. These changes came about as a result of the Sept 11 attack on America and subsequent amendment of the US Patriot Act of 2001, which is the International Law/Act guiding money transfers from country to country.

As soon as all these details are procured, I will send to you, a copy of the working agreement for your study and approval.

Thanks and waiting for your urgent response.

Yours Barrister Steve.


Y yo le doy mis datos:
Hello mister Steve, here i send the information that you requested:

(1) Your Full Names and Full Contact Addresses

Municipio de Chilindrina, Puebla.

(2) Nature of business you are currently engaged in
I am a freelance photographer

(3) Country of origin and country of residence if different from origin

(4) Photo passport size

(si, le mandé una foto de el señor Salgado Macedonio... luego le mando una de mi moto)

(5) Marital Status and no of children if any

(6) Bank Account Details with Swift Codes

I do not have a bank account at this moment.


I am thinking that perhaps a bank account would be needed for the transaction, in that case, I can create one.


Best wishes
Andrés



ahí seguimos... chido la banda

Deceiving the con artist

De que se trata esto?
En pocas palabras, lo que se llama Nigerian 419 es el fraude en el cual, un gato* te trata de chacalear.

Pasemos a lo bueno:
Recibo este correo:

Estimado Andres, Te estoy entrando en contacto con en el hecho de que podemos estar de ayuda el uno al otro en desarrollar un largo el durar y relación cordial del negocio como niños del dios y obtener la bendición de él. Soy Sr. IDRIS GARBA el único hijo de último ABDULLAH GARBA de ALHAJI BOUBA y último ABDULLAH de ALHAJA MEMUNA, que fue asesinado en el conflicto de la tierra en Zimbabwe, theowner de las granjas del diario se limitó en Zimbabwe. Él posee a tres granjas del tabaco en Chipinge, y también a dueño de la mayoría de la granja de Glendevon también situado en Chipinge, en Zimbabwe. Te estoy entrando en contacto con pues la necesidad de mí de tener un socio extranjero en tu país ha llegado a ser necesaria debido a mi plan volver a poner a ese país de modo que pueda comenzar un negocio provechoso como el presente la inestabilidad política en Zimbabwe no anima la inversión financiera mientras que el ambiente está no más conducente para cultivar la inversión y sobretodo la seguridad no se asegura, apenas según lo divulgado cerca la mayoría medios internacionales. Me hacen frente con el dilema de invertir esta cantidad de dinero aquí en Suráfrica para el miedo de ir con la misma experiencia en futuro ambos países tienen historia política similar. Si acuerdas actuar como un encargado de fondo para mí y mi familia, lanzaré la suma de dólares de US4.7 MILLÓN ESTADOS UNIDOS a ti si resuelves mis requisitos. El dinero está disponible en el efectivo depositado con una compañía de seguridad, y sobre una respuesta favorable de ti, te dejaré saber la recibirás. Debo también te dejo saber que esta transacción es 100%risk libremente. Soy listo parte con un buen porcentaje negociable como remuneración a ti o un alambique mejor, destina los fondos en empresa de negocio común en un negocio provechoso con ti. Si la oferta abroga a ti, responde a mí cuanto antes, o todavía mejora el contacto mi abogado, Sr. Steve Bossman en stevebossman@lycos.com para otros detalles. Allah bendice a te y a tu familia. Sinceramente suyo Sr. IDRIS GARBA

A lo que yo le contesto:
Que tal mi Amigo Idris, entiendo tu preocupación por tu país. Me interesaria mucho entablar una relación de negocios con usted. Permitame aclararle que soy una persona honesta y de buena fe. Espero recibir noticias de usted, Amigo.

atentamente
Andree Guelaguetza
Chilindrina, México.


y nuestro amigo Idris me contesta:

Dear Andrea,
I am happy to receive your mail.
Please I am also happy to hear you are a good person because I am in this situation for a long time because I dont have anybody honest enough to help me.
But I dont speak spanish but using language translator to write you and I hope you dont mind our communication.

Entonces yo le digo:
Hello my Friend Irdis,

Chilindrina, México, is a very peaceful community with lovely people I will try to send a picture somewhen soon.

About the lawyer, is he thrustworthy? will he know im the person who will help in this business?

Andrés


Y el culero me dice:
Dear Andres,
Thanks for your mail.
Thanks also for easing the problem of communication here.
my lawyer is the best person I have at the moment to assist me in this business because he was also my father's lawyer when he was alive and moreover we have known him in my country as a trusted lawyer who can keep every little of confidential arrangements.
So open communication with him on various procedures for this investment and lets see how far we can go.
Waiting for your kind response and thanks once more for your time and attention.
Regrds,
Idris.

Entonces yo le mando un correo al "abogado" diciendole:
Hello, this is Andrés G., I dont know if Mr.Idris Garba has told you that Im the person to help him in his business. He gave me your address so I could contact you and ask you for some of the technical/legal aspects of the business.

By the way, I will not have internet access for the next 3-4 days because it will be the national cellebrations that conmemorate the birthday of Benito Juarez, the father of our nation. Anyway, ill try to reach you and Mr. Idris next monday/tuesday.

If you speak to him, please tell him that im sorry if he could not reach me this weekend, I will get in touch as soon as I come back.


Mr. Andrés G.
