Hi there. I've been baiting for a long time, but I'm new to this forum. This is the point where I generally get stuck and don't know what to do next, so I'd love some helpful advice! Here's our transaction so far: From: OxFam Aid <lino.jara@infona.gov.py>
Congratulations Your email has brought you the amount of €250,000.00 as a community donation from Oxfam Aid. For further information, please contact us as soon as possible with your qualification number {OXG/553/416/FZH}. Find out more about Oxfam Aid: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OxfamOperations manager For more information Email: oxfam.aidrep@hotmail.com So we then go back and forth a few times, me playing extremely stupid. I try to get his physical address or bank details, but he won't give it up.
He wants Western Union payment, then when I'm confused about that, he wants Bitcoin. When I can't understand that either, he finally asks for iTunes cards: Hello,
Thanks for your mail, the content of your mail was well noted and understood, you cannot mail the money to my address because it's not included in the payment option.
It's easy to sign up on the site and make purchase for the bitcoin, since you are finding it difficult to do so, can you buy Itunes gift card at any nearest store in your location? that's the easiest way for you to pay the fee.
OxFam Aid.
What's my next move here???

Hi, In the section of the forum dedicated to members you will find: - some used gift cards photos (which you can then send to the scammer), - the Moneygram chatbot phone line - you can claim that you sent the money to him.

Seconding what Birlic said; also... if he persists with trying to get you to use Bitcoin, tell him that Bitcoin is used by the worst criminals, and you don't want to get mixed up with criminals like those.

What's my next move here??? Oh, there are many possibilities, many possibilities ... For example, you can tell him that you sent the money - but to another scammer ! You can do this immediately, if you want. "Sir, I sent the money to your chairman, Mr. Oyetunde, yesterday. He contacted me, and I asked if it had to do with our deal, and he told me that you work for him!" Or, you can prepare it for a few days in advance - by creating a new mailbox (with a false name of English origin, as Nigerian scammers typically use), sending a scam letter (which you might find on this website) from there to your original mailbox, creating a correspondence in which the fake scammer provides payment details (for example, a name and address in Nigeria, for a money-transfer service), and eventually telling him that you have made the payment to those details. Obviously, the only purpose of creating this dialogue is to display it to the real scammer, to provide credibility to your story. You can create the conditions for forwarding this dialogue to him in several ways. For example, when he begs you for dollars again, you can forward the conversation, telling him (as Pricky is wont to do) "I sent the money to your Chairman !" You are invited to read an account of the conduct of this modality, and of the beautiful chaos that it can create, in my thread Dr. Goreman & the Remarkably Persistent Scammer, which you will find in this section of the forum. For example, the Nigerian mugu has just forged a death certificate, to prove to a shipping company that the fake lad has kicked the bucket.
