The only scam bating stories that are any real fun are where the guys are talked into travelling to far flung destinations in the hope of getting their cash.
Best one involved the scammers ending up stuck in some war-zone s
thole owing money to a taxi driver, no money for food, no money for internet, getting into more debt and becoming increasing desperate for their prize to arrive.

Can you just tell us if he lived or not
Love these. Start sane and gradually ramp up the crazy.
Dear Sambuca,
Yes, I think my private equity company "pods pet investments" should be able to help. I'm not sure how you found me as I don't have an internet presence, but that doesn't really matter does it?
I normally make an initial handling charge of 5% for investment management, but in this instance as the sum is so large I am willing to negotiate a cap.
Please be assured that we operate with the strictest rules of confidentiality. Our investments use a Isle of Man based holding company, with a 100% interest in a Bahamas bank, whose vast investments verily vest directly into Swiss accounts. We pride ourselves on providing a tax efficient and a, shall we say, ahem, "opaque" investment scheme.
You can chose whether you'd like the money invested in Global Equity, the FTSE, or our new & unique Brexit Health scheme which should yield a steady £350 million per annum dividends (to be divided among members, obviously).
Yours Sincerely,
Pod the Investor.
Plenty of scope to increase the crazy later. Especially when the Pets side of the business takes too much time. For example a high roller came in to make a £200K investment and get a pedicure for his loathsome Skunk. Have you tried cleaning away the stench? Ammonia just seems to make it worse.
The guy is going to want a wire transfer for a release fee. You won't be able to do that from your Swiss account, but you could easily open an account in his name if he sends you details...

Wasn't there a thread where a PHer strung a scammer out most excellently, can anyone with a better memory confirm/link?
I did a thread on selling Nelson's column to an investor similar to this guy. And another on a credit card mis-delivery. I doubt you're talking about those, by 419 standards they were pretty average.jet_noise said:

I read that onr when it was linked to another forum I'm on.The PH guy had the scammer going backwards and forwards to the Western Union office everyday, yeah? Was it that one?
That would be extremely hard to top IMO. Was brilliant.

I've searched for Western Union but no hit on the first page of PH search.
