I've got a good one. I have had scammers ringing me claiming that they are from the Australian Taxation Office. And telling me if I don't pay $6000 dollars by credit card, right now, I will be arrested. ( this has been going on for weeks, and I'm still yet to be arrested.). Anyway, I started by telling them I didn't have a credit card,or any money so they had better come and get me. They then started calling more. I then started telling them they should write me a letter. They calls started coming 6 times a day. I then suggested sexual things they could enjoy with their mother. A few days ago, I asked they guy...are you fundamentally stupid or did your mother drop you on your head at birth? I want you to go, and do serious damage to yourself...(rude words followed from me as I told him what I thought of him,). He said back to me...and I'm not making this up...Jesus, you need to chill out.
Today, I started getting recorded calls from them. Same demands, same story, but, I guess, because I need to chill more, they don't want to talk to me anymore.

As a result of this, these friends try to claim the lottery on behalf of the real winners. The Microsoft Promotion Award Team has reached a decision from its headquarters that any double claim discovered by the Lottery Board will result to the canceling of that particular winning, leading to a loss for both the double claimer and the real winner, as it is taken that the real winner was the informer to the double claimer about the lottery.

Re: SCAMMERS !
I have been sending monosyllabic replies to a Russian 'girlie' who's fallen madly in love with me. Odd since all I've said to her is things like : "beaver shots required" and "tit size?". Each reply elicits long rambling declarations of undying 'lerv' and explanations of how she will get a visa to come to my country (she doesn't even know what that is ...)
Anyway as it plays towards the close, here's the latest from 'her'. The relevant bit is highlighted.
'Her' email address is giniatgulya@gmail.com in case anyone else wants to throw some fuel on the fire.
My reply :
I will take care of your air ticket. Let me have your travel dates and I will buy the tickets.
Eventually he will be thrown off script .......... that's when the fun really starts!

Hello my darling neil !!!
I am writing you from Moscow! I rented a room in the apartment. The landlady is a very good woman. I will write
you the address, which is now settled. My address in Moscow: 115054, Russia, Moscow, Valovaya st., 21/125-34. neil, today I visited embassy and airport. In the embassy I filled out all the documents for the visa. I
liked that the visa center has friendly people, I saw the consul, he walked down the hall and shook hands with all, he is a very serious man and courteous man. Helped me absolutely everything, I gave all the necessary documents, I also took photographs for visa.
Now I am looking forward to my visa. I met a girl and asked her how long it takes to get a visa, she said that now everything is done quickly, since a lot of people who wish to obtain a visa and for this, the embassy is much faster. The embassy told me that I should acquire 2 ticket. Airline tickets are needed to obtain a visa. The fact that the embassy staff must be exactly sure of the exact dates of my departure and return back to Russia and would like to note that the exact date on the visa. I thought that the tickets can be ordered via the Internet, but at the embassy said that now very strict rules and tickets are needed to fly the originals, and be sure to submit them for what would be in the embassy assured them that they could see my departure date in your country and return back to Russia. I was told that this is the main condition for obtaining a visa. I was very surprised to such rules, but I was told that it is important that fast to get a visa.
Today, I personally visited the airport Sheremetevo-2 and considered the price of airline tickets, airline tickets a very large selection. My dear, we need to hurry up with the purchase of tickets, so tickets should be given to the embassy, that would be on my visa indicated dates of stay in your country. I considered cheap,
the cost per ticket is (((($ 500)))). I need to have (((($ 1,000))) for two tickets so I could buy tickets. neil, I did not want to ask you for money, but I bought a laptop, and as I have big expenses here in Moscow. Now I have no money to buy tickets. I paid at the embassy visa and medical insurance. I also pay for the stay in the room. I have now
left little money, but the money I needed to live in Moscow. Can you help me to buy tickets? I have already told you that I should buy tickets in Russia, for that would at the Embassy assured my tickets.
Today, I also visited the bank, I had to learn how I can get from your money quickly, as I was saying that the ticket prices are getting more expensive every day. On the internet I learned that you are out of their country can transfer their help to me very quickly, this system is called "MONEYGRAM".
Also, there are systems of money transfers "Unistream" and "Contact". Now I will tell you the information you need to
you so that you can help me pass.
My full name: Gulnara Giniyatullina.
Bank name "SBERBANK"
Address: VALOVAYA ULITSA 24/44 STROENIE 1
MOSCOW, 115054.
My dear, after you pass me help, an employee of the bank to tell you a secret number. You will have to tell me this,
so I can get your help. I hope that you understand me, I spent a lot of money and I need your help. My dear, when I can get your help? I should know, because tomorrow I will go to the embassy and I have to let them know when I'll get tickets for certification.

Re: SCAMMERS !
Talking of scams .......... who is the more stupid ............ the scammer who got away with this for two years, or the railway system whose security is so slack that he could get away with it for so long?
A city banker who spent two years commuting to work using a photocopy of a train season ticket has lost his job after pleading guilty to the £8,000 fraud.
Simon King, 47, travelled from his home in Hassocks, West Sussex, to London Bridge station between May 2013 and April 2015, using the crude forgery, before admitting to the fraud after being told by a member of the London station’s platform staff to insert his ticket into the electronic barriers.
...........the banker photocopied the tickets before returning them to Southern Railway, and claiming a refund. The court heard that he simply glued a new number over the top of the expiry date, allowing him to flash the ticket at station staff and gain entry through the station barriers during the busy rush hour.
King was caught after being told to put his photocopied ticket through the barriers
However, his scam collapsed in April 2015. Malachy Pakenham, prosecuting, said: “A customer service adviser asked him to put the gold card through the barrier rather than present it.
“He admitted he had produced his own card.

I have written to the bank to advise them that the account is being used for receipt of funds obtained by fraud (as if they could care!) but I have just told the lady that :
OK
A couple of things. I said I can send you a ticket which you can exchange for cash or another ticket.
Also I checked., with my bank and we cannot send funds to AlfaBank due sanctions against Russia imposed and risk of fraud.
I think the only solution is to send ticket.

Waiting to see how she handles this.

Subject: Hello!!
Neil when you have written to me about sanctions I have called sister and have asked to contact it its bank. Sister has called me and has told to me, that sanctions against Alfa-Bank did not enter. Also sister to me has told, that sanctions do not forbid to do transfers to Russia. The organisation which have got under sanctions it is forbidden to take credits from foreign banks. Also I wish to tell to you, that I cannot tell to you about start date to you yet as I still yet have not received the visa. In the letters you write to me about swindle. You do not trust me???
Yours Gulnara

Re: SCAMMERS !
Hi Gulnara
I have accounts in banks in several countries and they all tell we cannot send money to Russian banks.
Sanctions apply to Russia. My bank will not allow us to send money to ANY Russian bank.
Do I trust you? Yes, of course I trust you
The bank does not trust Russia.
I have another solution. Please give me the name of the consular official and the address/phone that you are dealing with and I will speak to them direct.
My company has an agent in Moscow who can resolve this problem very fast.

Re: SCAMMERS !
Perhaps an indication that you know someone with influence in the Russian security services who is more than willing to speak with the visa department!!!

Re: SCAMMERS !
Let's see where this goes. I think the scammer will be keen to follow up as 'she' will think she's onto someone with bank accounts in several countries (i.e. lotsa money) and a multinational company, and more money than sense.
Of course I trust her! (Like f*** I do!)
At this stage, she's talking about 'going to the embassy' (don't they realise that embassies don't deal with visas?) but she doesn't know what country I am supposed to be in, so now I've put her on the spot. It will be interesting to see the reply.

Re: SCAMMERS !
I have had a response from the bank, but sadly no further news from the scammer, who may have moved on to an easier target. I have sent her a desperate pleading note telling her how badly I need her!

For security purposes we do not advise You to perform financial transactions for the benefit of the recipients unknown to You. (Oh really ......... as if!)

Re: SCAMMERS !
I got an e-mail in the name of a fellow pilot from our company who had a real problem. He was somewhere in Wales and his wallet had been stolen, and now he needed me to pay for an air ticket back to his home, but that was in one of the Home Counties!
Years ago a German friend got a fax (remember them?) from Nigeria, addressed to him as last name, first name, that was all about how he had been recommended as an honest person who could take delivery of $3 million from a blocked account, etc, etc. Someone told me that whenever a Nigerian visited a local establishment then the telephone book went with him on departure as a source of names and addresses, which must have been how they got my friend's name. He only has German, so that this fax in English was a source of some puzzlement to him.
