This Arabian scammer was running (was is the operative term) a classic advance-fee fraud scam, where the thief promises you money, if you only give a small amount in return. I messed with him by pretending to be both stupid and omnipresent at the same time. He finally sent me back a message basically telling me that....well, you can read it for yourself. My talk is in bold,the scammer talk is in normal text, and annotations are in italics. Thanks to Birlic for offering advice while this crazy exchange
was going on.

Dear Sir:
Uncle Miguel told Aunt Tracy, and Aunt Tracy wants me to contact her lawyer, Gilbert Goldfisher. Mr. Goldfisher, a former FBI agent, promised to help me with this. I hope that's not a problem. Goldfisher also told his wife, and his wife told her boss, so now about 15 people know about this transaction. Again, I hope that's not a problem.
Alex Gaarsland
YOU BLASTED FOOL OF AN AMERICAN!!! IS A PROBLEM TO INVOLVED A THIRD PARTY!!!I TOLD YOU TO BE CONFIDENTIAL.HOW CAN YOU ALREADY TOLD 15 PEOPLE WHEN WE HAVE NOT EVEN STARTED .YOU TOLD WHOLE TOWN IN ONE DAY. WHAT KIND OF MADEMAN ARE YOU!!! STOP IT OK (Kabam! Pete is real happy)
Dear Sir:
I'm really sorry about this mix-up. I think it can be stopped. Mr. Gilbert called half-an hour ago. He told his wife about it. He also told his brother, Filbert, about it. He
told Filbert not to tell anyone. By the way, you're wrong about 15 people knowing about our deal. The only people who know are you, me, my mom, Alethia (my sister),
Colbert, Zechariah, Zechariah's wife, Aunt Tracy, Uncle Miguel, Gilbert, Gilbert's wife, Gilbert's wife's boss, and Filbert. That's 14 people, not 15. I hope we can continue
this transaction, as receiving this fund and keeping it confidential is very important to me. (Yeah, sure)
Alex Gaarsland
YOU BLASTED CRAZY MADEMAN! I KNOW THAT FILBERT TELLS EVERYBODY. IF YOU TELL ONE ONE TELLS ANOTHER. WHAT CRAZY BIG MOUTH PEOPLE LIVE IN YOUR TOWN!!!
Scan me your identification card any available one (Screams at me, calls me names, and then has the nerve to ask for my ID! What a...dummy)
Dear Sir:
I don't have a scanner. By the way, I've had a busy morning here. Mr. Singer from the newspaper here called. He wants to congratulate me on my funds. Apparently, Filbert told Dilbert, who told Alice, who told Wally, and Wally's boss told Singer. Singer said he's going to put an article in the newspaper about this business deal! He wanted you to email him. Mr. Singer's email address is singer@journalist.com. Hope this sudden publicity won't harm our business dealings.
Alex Gaarsland
Can you even handle the little expenses on this transaction??
Dear Sir:
Of course I can. Why I once handled $5,000 dollars from a client of my small business. But Mr. Singer wants you to email him for the newspaper article he's writing about you. Have you emailed him yet?
Alex Gaarsland
(McCoy didn't respond for a day)
Dear Sir:
Are you still there? I can handle these funds. Why I once handled $5,000 dollars from a client of my small business. But Mr. Singer wants you to email him for the
newspaper article he's writing about you. Have you emailed him yet? Please get back to me ASAP.
Alex Gaarsland
(I'd like to interrupt here, because during the day that McCoy didn't respond, something odd happened. I have three emails for scambaiting purposes, and I got an email from Pete in one of them. It was the same, "Hi, I have your file" letter. So, I decided to shake Petey up a little, and wrote back to him:)
Dear Peter McCoy:
Hey, it's your old buddy Alex Gaarsland, remember me? What are you doing emailing me at my office email? Have you emailed the newspaperman yet?
Alex
WHAT!? ALEX GAARSLAND, ARE YOU OVER THE WHOLE INTERNET? EVERYWHERE I GO YOU OR ONE OF YOU FRIENDS GO
Do not reply to me hear, I will mesage you now at your other account ----------- (he gave the address of the original account here)
(Sure enough, I got this message from McCoy in my original account. It came that night)
THEY WILL PUBLISH MY NAME IN THE STREETS ALL OVER. THAT WILL BRINGS A GREAT SHAME ON MY FAMILY .AND THEN TO FIND OUT YOU HAVE FORTY EMAILS? WHAT KIND OF MADEMAN ARE YOU!!!! YOU LYAR MAY YOUR NEWSPAPER MAN’S CARCASS AND YOUR CARCASS FUEL THE FIRES OF HELL!!!!!!
