I'm actually in the process of setting up a sting operation to try and get some Nigerian scammers that are trying to scam me on Craigslist. If your not familiar with the Nigerian scammers then I'll clue you into a bit of information that I have acquired throughout their scamming attempts.
A little while back I was looking for a part-time job on Craigslist and came upon this ad for a person to help this business guy out. Basically how it went was like this; theres this guy in a foreign country who has some money in the U.S. but cant send it to his country, he wants you to take some money orders that he sends you, cash them in your bank and forward a the balance to him minus a small fee for your troubles. At first, im thinking yeah ok, this is a complete fraud. I give him my information without expecting anything.
About a week later I get this envelope in the mail with about 6 or 7 money orders for $850.00 each. I'm like holy shit! This guy is fucked, I'm taking his money and buying a lifetime supply of Grey Goose! I fantasized about my total drunkedness for weeks on end when myself interupted myself with a small thought. This shit isnt legit. I go online, google money order scams and find this whole thing about the "Nigerian Money Order Scam" Basically people are cashing the money orders, getting the funds (U.S banks have to honor a check within 01-05 days, it typically takes 7-10 days for the check to clear, giving you the money up front is considered floating you a loan) deposited into their accounts and forwarding the balance to the crazy Nigerians. When their bank finds out about the fake money order, they turn to the person and want they money back .A total shit case.
So that was my first experience with the evil Nigerian Scammers. I've recently been posting some things on craigslist, and all im getting is email upon email from "ken peter, Mac Star and Koota Kintay" claiming they live overseas and would like to get my item for their kid for their birthday, or some other reason. They ask for my name and my address so they can send me money orders. Then I guess their going to send me a shipping label to ship the goods. In one of the emails, i think I even have someone coming to pick up the product.
So now, I'm setting up my own personal sting operation. I'm going to send them shit and peanut butter with the shipping label that they send me, and im not too sure what to do with the person that comes to "pick up" my stuff. I don't want to be chopped up and turned into a voodoo doll, but these guys are pissing me off. I know somewhere some poor joe schmoe is getting his finances fucked royally because he's too much of a dumbass to know better. I guess i'm trying to be like a Korean Kracker Financial Swat Team. That's right you scammer motherfuckers. KKFST is here and i'm going to deebo your scamming asses bitches!!!
