Any veteran baiter will likely have encountered multiple iterations of Dr Godwin Emefiele, Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria. One tactic I use against commonly used scammer identities is the "cascade bait" - employing email scripts from previous versions against recent arrivals to cause confusion.
Here's a recent example, ongoing as of 15 June 2021
All scammer emails are date-stamped; my comments are in bold.

Malcolm comes out swinging.

Why didn't I get paid? The answer is indeed simple; it's all your fault. If you were sincere, you'd admit to that, but instead you're blaming me!

The Lad seemed to have been taken by surprise, because he opened with the wrong name. I chose to ignore that.

Please with all Due Respect to you, I want to first tell you that I am deeply Sorry for answering you late, the Reason was that as the Governor I have a lot of work in hand hence I did not write you before now Please I am sorry.
Yes I want to let you know that Yesterday I was able to have conversation with the Office of the International Remittance Department IRD, to know the Reason behind the delay in making transfer of your money US$10.5Million. The Informational Remittance Department IRD, made me to understand that there if a Fee called Cost of Transfer (CoT) they ask you Mr. Malcolm Reynolds,to pay but you refused to comply hence the IRD did not Transfer your Money as required.
Now I have Ordered the IRD to carry out the Transfer of your Money without asking you to pay any Money again and the Director in the Department Dr. Charles Columbus, told me that the IRD will comply with the Directive, but the Problem right now is that the Account in which your Money is has run into Dormant and before the Transfer can move you Must Re-activate the Account which is Truth.
Now I have asked how much is the Re-activation and they told me just US$310 only so please if you want this Bank to move on to Transfer your Money into your Bank Account that you will send kindly let me know immediately, and also send down your Bank Account where the Central Bank will Transfer your Money into ASAP.
NB: PLEASE LET IT VERY WELL CLEAR TO YOU THAT I DO NOT HAVE MUCH TIME TO WASTE OVER THIS,IF YOU WANT YOUR MONEY KINDLY COMPLY OR WE FORGET EVERYTHING AND STOP ALL THE CONTACTS WITH YOU.
I am waiting for your Reply ASAP.

Mal lets loose with scorn.
Dr Emefiele
I would love to play poker against you, because you're the most gullible, careless, and dim-witted man I've ever known. You believe every lying scumbag who tells you I'm dead, you lose my details over and over again, and you accept this Columbus asshole's word that it's my fault for not paying some charge that I've already paid. Word of advice; wise up and grow a gorram brain!
Also this; "I DO NOT HAVE MUCH TIME TO WASTE OVER THIS" - considering the time you're already wasted, that's chutzpah, Bubba-Louie. You have all the time you need to get this matter sorted out.

Why are you so insulting and angry over me? have I ever insulted you in any way at all? if you know that you are not ready to comply with any Directive I will give why can't you tell me that you will not comply than you resulted to insult me why?

I told you why I didn't get paid; "Why didn't I get paid? The answer is indeed simple; it's all your fault."
I also wrote; "And considering that fiasco with the diplomats, and how you were ready to hand over the money to four separate imposters, I should have called time on this whole dog-and-pony show months back."
I also wrote; "You believe every lying scumbag who tells you I'm dead, you lose my details over and over again, and you accept this Columbus asshole's word that it's my fault for not paying some charge that I've already paid."
What that means...
1. You sent a diplomatic shipment to the wrong country, and against my wishes
2. You were ready to believe people who came in off the street and claimed that I'm dead not once, but four times
3. You keep demanding details from me that I've given you several times, and it's like you've forgotten them each time
4. You accept someone's word that I haven't paid charges that I've already paid
Did I insult you? Yes. Considering how I've been treated by you and your lackies, you got off lightly.
