On The Scam Explained

So regular reads, are probably pretty disappointed with my lack of regular posting! But anyway I was sifting through my old hotmail account, that I tied to the Paypal account that I invoiced Clifton Gemini or whatever the hell that idiot's name was. Anyway the scam is so obvious now, I feel kind of silly even posting, I mean a casual glance will reveal exactly what this POS (and that's not a Point Of Sales system) was up to.

For anyone who needs to get caught up, see the following posts:
Its good to read back from you.I received your paypal details and i am just about to remit the payment to your account when i had this little problem with the pick up agent.He said he would not be coming for the pick up unless i pay the pick up agent commission fee with registration fee,just for him to be able to schedule the pick up time.The problem am having with the agent now is that hes only ready to accept his payment through western union money transfer and i am unable to get that done from my end as i am very busy with my daughter passing through a surgery in hospital ....Sir/Ma,i have to ask you to help me with the pick up fees....I would include the pick up fee of (US$1000) with the payment of yours that am making through paypal...After you have been notified about the payment,i would need you to assist me to send the charges of pick up agent


(US$1000)through western union money transfer.

Please do get back to me just to let me know that you understand all this so that i can move on with the payment now.

Thanks

Now I want to point out here, he's in the military yet does not clue in that many of the NATO bases I mentioned do not exist, nor could have existed. He's desperate to buy a bicycle, remember, I was selling a S-Works Specialized Roubaix (which is just a fancy road bike, nothing more), yet his daughter is in surgery!

Okay, I'm not a father, yet, but its at the point now where every time Dawn goes to the hospital for her ultrasound I don't even bother with work. Heck on Friday when she went I was on call and still told off the Incident Management Office because my unborn sons are infinitely more important to me than almost anything else, save and except Dawn, yeah Dawn would be the only thing more important to me than my boys. Now this guy is trying to get me to wire him $1000 so that he buy a bicycle, dude... your daughter!!!

Anyway here's my response, not that it matters:

Wow you sure are a dumb fuck... about as dumb I guess as anyone you've sucessfully conned!
