just recieved a fun scam trying to screw me out of thousands of my hard earned dollars. While most dismiss these scams I will have some fun misleading them, while sharing my exploits with the users on this site. Here is the letter sent to me today some of you might have recieved it as well.

Hi my love,

Permit me to inform you of my desire of going into business relationship with you. I am quite aware that my message will come to you as a surprise because it is indeed very strange for someone you have not met before to contact you in this regard. But I want you to help me. I am Miss. Viviane Uddi the only daughter of late Chief and Mrs Dikko Uddi.

My father was a very wealthy Cocoa merchant in Abidjan; the economic capital of Ivory Coast, my father was poisoned to death by his business associates with the help of my uncle Mr.Kone Coulibaly on one of their outings on a business trip. My mother died when I was a baby and since then my father took me so special. Before the death of my father on March 2008 in a private hospital here in Abidjan he secretly called me and told me that he has the sum of (Seven million, five hundred thousand United State Dollars).USD ($7.500, 000, 00) left in fixed / suspense account in one of the prime security firm here in Abidjan, that he used my name as his only daughter for the next of Kin in depositing of the fund.

He also explained to me that it was because of this wealth that he was poisoned by his business associates with the help of his brother so to inherit his wealth. 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 purpose such as real estate or hotel management.

Dear, I am honourably seeking for your assistance to help me come over to your country.Moreover; Dear I am willing to offer you 15% of the total sum as compensation for your effort/ input after the successful delivery of this fund into your country. Please it is urgent because of my life.

Furthermore, dear please indicate your options towards assisting me by sending your informations (1) Your full name (2) Your current address (3) Your age (4) Present occupation (5) Direct phone number, because I was giving a form to fill and return it once I have concluded with my foreign partner who is going to assist me. I will like you to write back to tell me your mind. May God bless you.

Thanks and God bless.

Yours Sincerely,

Miss. Viviane Uddi.

Step 1: Invent your Scambaiting Identity I will be Hugh Jassle (Huge asshole) this time, The names should be somewhat believable but they're usually Nigerian so they prob won'r get it. My Address will Be: 200 Cushman st. Fairbanks, Ak 99701 (the address for the Fairbanks, AK Newspaper Daily News Miner) I will be a 50yr old dentist born Jan, 03 1959 (the date Alaska became a state) And my number will be (907) 465-5070 a fax number for the Devision of Air Quality. I will tell them I am deaf though and they can only contact me by textphone or tty.

Step 2: Create an email acct. for scambaiting, I use Mail.com because you can pick great domain names. This time I am Hugh_Jassle@toothfairy.com

Step 3:Send them a message sounding like a complete tool and wait for the reply. ( I may have overdone it with the sillyness this time we'll see)

updates will come as I scam the scammer.
