Post recieved phishing and laugh : D
« on: September 20, 2007, 06:12:44 am »
Sometimes when you go check your inbox you find a message that is absolutely bull****, BUT rather funny to read how ppl are trying trick you just by an ordinary e-mail message. I hope Im not breaking any rules since this is just to discuss phishing you might have sometimes recieved in you inbox.

Most of you probably ofcourse delete this type of crap and never open, but nevermind, if you get a phishing message, feel free to post it here so we can discuss and even laugh at it.

Heres goes mine I got just today:


WARNING - THE FOLLOWING TEXT IS PHISHING, DO NOT DO ANYTHING THAT IT MIGHT SAY

================

From: james diarra
Av.12 RD 16,Apt.39B, Triechville
Abidjan, Cote D'Ivoire.
Private Email: james_diarra20@yahoo.co.jp

Dear One,
                     
                PLEASE I REQUIRE YOUR ASSISTANCE
                     
Permit me to inform you of my desire of going into business relationship with you .I am james diarra . The son  of late Chief and Mrs.Alaine diarra JP. My father was a very wealthy GOLD and COCOA merchant who based in Accra, Ghana and Abidjan the economic capital of Cote D'Ivoire respectively.

His business associate on one of their business outings poisoned him to death. When my mother died on the 21ST October 1994, my father took me  so special because i am motherless. Before the death of my father on the 29th November 2000 in a private hospital here in Abidjan,  He sincerely called me on his bedside and told me that he had a sum of US$10,500,000 (TEN MILLION FIVE HOUNDRED THOUSAND U.S DOLLARS) kept in a security company here. He also said that the security company does not know the content of the Trunk Boxes. He also put my name in Depositing the 1 boxes as the beneficiary and next of kin.

He also explained to me that it was because of this wealth that he was poisoned by his business associates, That I should seek for a foreign partner in a country of my choice where I will transfer this money and use it for investment purposes and further my education, I want you to assist me in clearing this fund into your account overseas as a beneficiary of  the fund, and also use it for an investment purpose, such as real estate management. My interested areas of investment are; REAL ESTATE, HOTELS, PETROLUM INDUSTRY & MINING, TRANSPORT or in any good investment you may advise me on. I am honorably seeking for your assistance in the following ways.

(1) To assist me to clear this fund from the security company and transfer to your account successfully.
(2To provide a bank account into which this money would be transfer into.
(3) To serve as the guardian of this fund since I am a student with no business experience.
(4) To make arrangement for me to come over to your country to further my Education

Moreover, I am willing to offer you 20% of the total sum as compensation for your effort /input after the successful transfer of this fund to your nominated
account. Furthermore, you can indicate your option towards assisting me, as I believe that this transaction would be concluded within 14 days, from the day you signify interest to assist me.

Waiting to hear from you soonest. Have a nice day and

Remain blessed.

Yours Truly,

james diarra

No thanks, I'd rather stay alive for now.

I haven't personally gotten one of these, but check out www.419eater.com. One of the funniest things I've read in my life.
I attend grammar school, last grade, and ignorance is all around me. Well, good for them. Ignorance is bliss.

Heres goes mine I got just today:
<snip Nigerian scam email>

Yeah...everyone's gotten that one.  The popular ones now are "You just got an e-card from <relative>!  Go to 24.67.112.4 (or some other numerical ip) to see it!"

Other ones:
"Its amazing, now ALL woman want to screw me" (From an Anna K. Huber O_O)

"Ladies always giggled at me and even guys did in the public toilets!" (stay away from those gay bathrooms, dude)

"Why Rolex is AWESOME
 -Jesus would wear a Rolex
 -Celebrities wear Rolex’s
 -Millionaires wear Rolex’s" (Jesus loved that bling)

Only anime shows I've felt any interest in over the years are Pokemon (original TV series) and various hentai.
so clearly jgrp is a goddamn anime connoisseur. his opinion might as well be law here.

Best Admin: jrgp, he's like the forum mom and a pet dog rolled into one.

I heard a really neat story about someone who turned the table on theese scammers.
He made it seem like he was interessed, but would not give money to anyone if he wasnt sure if he would get payed back.

I dont remember the whole story, but there was alot of email exchange, making the scammer send pics of some really funny useless products, made on request by the guy he was trying to scam.

Really funny stuff. I think there is some websites that are trying to make more people fool the scammers, and got alot of theese stories.

edit: Scambaiting was the word. Frunkamunch posted the link to one of the sites :P

A few notes:
- Please remove URLs from anything you post in this thread
- Please remove e-mail addresses (I don't care about yours, I care about any that they say to e-mail) from anything you post I take that back, leave them so that maybe this page gets crawled by a spammer and they get spammed
