The Eric and Ray Show

Scam Baiting... The Facebook Adventure!

It's been several years since my last foray into scammer baiting, but the opportunity presented itself recently, and I just had to have another go at it. My daughter's Facebook account got hijacked. The scumbag also got into her email; actually, I'm not sure which got hit first, but the outcome was that they changed the passwords for both accounts, changed the email address to a new one of their own choosing, and they added a forwarder to her e-mail to redirect all her mail to theirs. Then they sent out messages to all her friends with a sad story to try to get money from them.

Of course I decided to answer the plea. What follows is the actual conversation. I will color-code each character's text as they show up, so you should be able to follow it. The scammer's text will be in black. Let's begin....


Mar 9 - 11:09 AM:

Hello,

How are you doing today? hope you are well and fine, I'm writing this letter to you with tears in my eyes, My family and I came down here to Scotland, United Kingdom for a short vacation unfortunately we were mugged at the park of the hotel where we stayed,all cash,credit card and cell were stolen off us but luckily for us we still have our life and passports with us.

We've been to the embassy and the Police here but they're not helping issues at all they asked us to wait for 3weeks which we can not and our flight leaves in few hours from now but we're having problems settling the hotel bills and the hotel manager won't let us leave until we settle the bills.

Am freaked out at the moment and i need a quick loan from you.

Katherine.

Anyone who knows Kate can tell you she never calls herself "Katherine," as that might lead somebody to call her "Kathy" and she would hate that. She's Kate or Katie. By the time I got this email, I'd already been trying to fix her accounts for about a half-hour. I respond:

Mar 9 - 11:51 AM:

Abby said you got mugged. What happened?

Jim

Naturally, anything worth doing is worth overdoing, so I decide to respond to him again from a different address. I want to see if he's as gullible as he thinks I am.

Mar 9 - 12:04 PM:

Oh my god. What can I do to help?

In order to reduce confusion, I'm going to post parallel columns for the conversation; on the left, in orange, is correspondence from "Kate's brother, Jim" and on the right, in blue, is mail from "Kate's uncle Jimmy" to our favorite Nigerian Scammer (a friend did an IP trace on the mail he received, and the message originated from a server at 31 B Saka Tinubu Street, Victoria Island, Lagos, Nigeria. It pays to have tech-savvy friends.)

Mar 10 - 2:59 AM:

Hello, what is going on.. am still hanging in here to read from you with the transfer confirmation MTCN#

Please kindly keep me posted and will be very appreciate with what ever you wired to me

I owe you a lot

Katherine.

Mar 10 - 8:23 AM:

I'm confused. What are you doing in Scotland? You told me you were house-sitting for the Johnsons?

Jim

Mar 10 - 9:55 AM:

OMG!!! I was there for a short vacation, am very sorry i could not tell you about my trip. I'm really freaked out at the moment and need your help to get out from this mess.

Have you got the money wired? if so, kindly get back to me with the transfer comfirmation MTCN# so i can pick the money up and have my way back home. kindly keep me posted

I'm hanging in here

I owe you a lot

Katherine.

Mar 10 - 12:46 PM:

It's okay, I just was annoyed that Mom and Dad took you to Scotland and didn't tell me. I could have gotten someone to cover me at work and gone too. I guess they are still mad at me for flunking out of college. Not like you, Miss Perfect Straight-A Honor Student. Are Mom and Dad okay?

Jim

Mar 10 - 3:13 PM:

Mom and Dad are okay, but we really need your help urgent and so sorry I didn't inform you about our traveling with Mom and Dad. All we need now is $2,500, but we will be so happy with what ever you can able to wired to us right now and you can have it wired to my name via western union.....Western union is faster, secured and quicker, below are my details you need to have it done:

Name: Katherine Macquarrie
Address: 10 Princes St Edinburgh EH2 2EQ, Scotland
Country: United Kingdom

Once its done kindly get back to me with the transfer details, i rushed down here to send messages but will be back soon to get the transfer details, don't have access to calls , the muggers took all our things including our cell phone, Please how soon can you have the cash wired???? you can locate a western union at the walmart store near you.

I owe you

Katherine.

March 10 - 3:58 PM

Kate, where am I supposed to get $2500? You know my job sucks. I'll call uncle Jimmy. He can take care of everything, and I think he has a friend who lives in Scotland. I'll bet he can help. Don't worry about a thing.

Jim

Mar 10 - 4:10 PM:

OMG!!! we haven't got any help at the moment, how much can you able to spare us at the moment? anything you can afford to wired to us is something and we will be so happy for it. kindly keep me posted.

I'm hanging in here

Kate.

March 10, 2011, 4:32 PM

You're kidding, right? I have about $100 to last until the 15th. I was going to hit Dad up for a loan on Saturday. I called uncle Jimmy, and he said he was already talking to you and has everything handled. His friend Al is going to take care of your problem.

Why aren't Mom and Dad taking care of this? It seems very weird to me.

Jim

Mar 10 - 4:47 PM:

Oh thank you so much for your concern and caring, Uncle Jimmy as promised to help out.

Thanks again

I love you.

Kate

March 10 - 5:04 PM

Wow. You're in trouble! Mom's really pissed off, she called me wanting to know where you are. I said I don't know. This better be worth it. If they find out you LEFT THE COUNTRY without telling them, they are going to so kill you. I will try to cover for you, but you better get back here ASAP before they call the cops. Whatever you do, you better be straight with uncle Jimmy or he'll kill you too, but listen, he bailed me out of a few spots before. He's a good guy and you can trust him, but you better tell him the truth.

Who are you there with, and what do you need all this money for? How much trouble are you in? What should I tell Mom & Dad when they call back?

Now I'm worried. Be careful.

Mar 10 - 5:14 PM:

OMG!!! am in a Big trouble as you said and i no it, I went with some friends but suddenly we got mugged.. please kindly try to get something to tell Mom and Dad for me maybe they can help with some $$$ for me to get my ass back home. I will explain everything to you clearly when i get back home, am really freaked out at the moment and in worries too. kindly keep me posted if any luck to get some $$$ for me to get back home.

I'm hanging in here

Kate

Mar 10 - 6:23 PM

Let's make a deal.

I did an IP trace on your email and found out it's coming from Nigeria. I know it's a scam, and I want in on it. My parents have a lot of money, and they cut me off when I quit school. If I can get them to send you the money, will you split it with me? I think we can get them to pay $10,000 if I convince them that Kate is really over there. I can track her down and keep her out of the way until we're done. So what do you say? $5000 for you and $5000 for me. If we work together, we might be able to get even more.

Jim

Mar 10 - 6:33 PM:

Oh really, how can we make it happen? just let me know so we can work hand to hand to make the money okay.

Hanging in here

Date: Thursday, March 10, 2011, 6:58 PM

I guess first I need to keep Lindi from flying to Scotland, and get my uncle to chill. I'll see what I can do.

Meanwhile, I can't keep calling you Kate. It feels silly, since I know you're not my sister. What can I call you?

Jim

On Mar 10 - 7:17 PM:


Oh that is a good idea for you to do over there, You can call me Jeff by name while my full name is Jeff Oliver.. so let me know how we gonna work the deal out okay.

Hanging in here.

Mar 11 - 8:30 AM:

Hi Jeff,

Sorry for not getting back to you sooner. I had a date and it went late. ;)

I'm trying to figure out the best way to pull this off, but here's what I know so far. The parents are in New York for another week, and my uncle isn't going to give me the money to send to Kate, he will want to send it himself. I think they have heard enough warnings about fraud to not trust Western Union (over here, the only people who use it are criminals and illegal aliens sending money back to Mexico), so I think we need to find another way to transfer the money. I'll work on that. Meanwhile, don't push my uncle too hard or he might get suspicious.

Now, once he sends the money, how do we split it? We need some way to trust each other. If he sends it to you, how do I know you will send me my share, and if he gives it to me, you would have the same concern, right? Let me think about this a little more. I'm sure there is a way we can do it.

Jim

Mar 11 - 7:00 PM

Jeff,

My real name is Jim MacQuarrie. I have the same name as my uncle, my grandfather and a lot of my cousins. For some reason this family just loves that name. It gets very confusing for other people all the time. People always think they are talking to my cousin or my uncle or somebody. It's one of the things I hate about my family. They are such weirdos.

Sorry I haven't had a chance to call you. I don't want the call to show up on the home phone bill, and I don't have a cell phone right now (it fell out of my pocket into the toilet. I know, I'm an idiot). We don't have any pay phones around here, so I'll have to think of another way to call you. It might be a problem with the time difference, you're practically on teh other side of the world, so it's night here when its daytime there.

I'm not on Facebook. I don't trust it. The people who invented it have ties to the CIA and I don't want to give them all that information.

Anyway, I'm working on my uncle to get him to do something before my parents get back in town. If he sends the money they will have to pay him back. I think we're getting close. One of the difficulties is that the crazy old coot lives on top of a mountain about an hour outside of a tiny little town so small it doesn't even have a Walmart, and he doesn't understand the internet very well. He only uses it to do email and play fantasy baseball with his friends. I think I can convince him to write me a check, then I'll deposit it in my account and send you half. Your job is to make it look like I sent the whole thing to Katie in Scotland. Okay?

I think it's going to work perfectly.

Jim

Mar 11 - 10:51 AM:

Hey Jim,

Glad to heard back from you, how are you doing today.. hope it fine and have a lovely date. Jim i understand all what you said, I want you to have a confidence on me so we could work things out perfect. Jim you have to convince your uncle about this that he should try to send the money via western union OR money gram and i will send you your share from the money with faith and believe. I do really want to know you more better so we can make a good deal and make a urge money on the internet.. I work online for a living and make a good money on it. We need to make this deal work out on time before your uncle will know what is going on about this.. So you have to talk to your uncle and convince him. What is your real name? Are you on facebook? Here is my phone number(+2348051825420) i would like you to call me so we could talk more better over the phone.

Jim i love the kind of guy you are and love to make a deal with a guy like you.. I have a lot of deal we can work out together and make a good money on it. so kindly give me a call so we could talk over the phone to know each other more better and also let me know if you are on facebook so we could chat as well..

Hanging here to read back from you as much as possible.

Jeff.

Mar 10 - 9:28 AM:

Mar 10 - 9:37 AM:

Come on, Kate, you know where I live. It's a 45 minute drive down the mountain into town. Can't I just transfer the money into your bank account, and you can take it out with your ATM card? We've done that before.

On Mar 10 - 9:52 AM:

OMG!!! Sir i do understand you, but you have to understand my situation as well. Cus the mugger's went away with all our cash,credit card and cell phone including my ATM.. so i quickly cancel my credit card and ATM for a security porpose.

Sir? Since when do you call your favorite uncle "Sir"? You're there with your mom and dad, right? Have your dad call me collect from the hotel. He has my number.

Mar 10 - 1:03 PM:

Good news, Kate. My friend Alistair lives in Edinburgh. Remember Al? He came to visit us in San Diego a few years ago. I just talked to him, and he'll head over to the hotel to meet you and take care of everything. Don't worry, everything's fine now.

***

Mar 10 - 1:54 PM:

What's going on? Al is at the hotel, and you're not there. The desk clerk says there's nobody named MacQuarrie staying there? Should I send him to the US embassy?

Mar 10 - 2:58 PM:

March 10 - 3:51 PM:

Look, I understand you're upset, but you need to calm down and let the adults handle it. You're a very smart kid, but you're still just a kid. I'm really proud of the way you're trying to take care of this, but it's not your responsibility. Just tell your dad to call me.

It's almost midnight there, so there's no point in doing anything until morning. I talked to my bank, and all of this is really simple. Tomorrow, he will pick you up at your hotel and take you to his place. He'll put you up until it's time for your flight back home. There's no need for a wire transfer. I can pay the hotel bill directly from my online checking account, Al can give your dad money for necessities, your parents already have your return plane tickets. Everything's fine. There's no need to panic. Tell your dad to call me. I'm sure the hotel has a phone. Just tell your dad to call me; the call will go on the hotel bill.

Mar 10 - 4:06 PM:

OMG!!! I truthly understand you uncle, Dad is not in good condition at the moment that is why i am doing all this to get in touch with you.. Dad can not able to call because the Hotel does not allow us to use any of the Hotel facilities and we all freaked out at the moment, Our flight leaves in few hours from now, Please kindly try to locate a western union outlet to get the money wired to us right now. I can have the money picked up first thing tomorrow morning and we could have our way back home immediately. Kindly get back to me with the transfer confirmation MTCN#.

I'm hanging in here

Kate.

Mar 10 - 4:24 PM:

Tell me what's really going on, Kate. Your brother called me, and after I talked to him, I tried your dad's cell phone. He and your mom are not in Scotland. Your dad thinks you are house-sitting for the Johnsons. You're in big trouble when you get back home. I can try to cover for you, but you have to level with me. What's going on? Are you traveling with Sean punk? I don't trust that kid, and now he's gotten you to lie to your parents and leave the country with him, and you're trying to tap me for money to cover what you took from your parents to pay for the trip. isn't that right?

I'm very disappointed in you.

Mar 10 - 4:43 PM:

Oh am very sorry uncle, i never new everything will turn out this way.. please kindly help me to get out of this place and find my way back home, I promise not to do this again and will explain everything to you as soon as i get back home. kindly try to get the money wired to me today so i can have the money picked up first thing tomorrow morning and found my way back home immediately. am really freaked out here uncle.. please kindly keep me posted with the transfer confirmation MTCN# as soon as you get the transaction done.

I'm hanging in here

Kate.

Mar 10 - 5:14 PM:

All right, let's figure this out. Where are you really? I know you're not staying at the hotel you told me before. You were going to just go in and pick up the money there, right? Are you with Sean, or somebody else? Are you in trouble with the law? Is somebody holding you there until you get money for them?

Mar 10 - 5:27 PM:

Uncle please i want you to kindly understand me and help me out from the mess am into, I went with some friends but suddenly we got mugged where we stay. we all freaked out at the moment and really need helps to sort bills, please uncle kindly have the money wired to me today so i can picked the money up first thing tomorrow morning and have my way back home i will explain more better to you when i get back home.

I'm hanging in here

Kate.

Mar 10 - 6:34 PM

Okay, Katie, don't worry. We'll take care of it. Lindi is flying to Edinburgh tonight to get you. She'll need to know where you're staying. My guess is you aren't at a hotel, you're staying at somebody's house. I'm going to give her the address of the hotel you told me earlier, so just meet her there and pretend you were staying there. I've already let her know that you aren't there with your parents, so don't worry about that. She will meet Al and he'll take her to a bank where she can withdraw the money you need, then they will go to the hotel and meet you.

I talked to your brother, and he's going to smooth things over with your parents. They will never know you left the country without telling them. Okay?

Uncle Jimmy

Mar 10 - 6:42 PM:

NO uncle, that is a lot of stress and not a right idea.. I prefer you to let Lindi stay there and you try to get the money i request wired to me today via Western Union OR Money Gram outlet, i will picked the money up first thing tomorrow morning and get back home immediately. hope you understand?

I'm hanging in here

At this point, "Uncle Jimmy" drops out of the story.


Mar 13 - 10:56 AM:

Hey Jim,

How are you doing today, hope it fine? what is going on, never got any email from you.. Please kindly sent me an email to know what is going on about our deal. I need a reply to the last email i sent to you so i can know what is going on with the deal.. Jim i want you to know that we still have so many deal to work out together and make a good money on it. I still have some other things to tell your uncle and collect more money from him.. Hope you understand? so kindly get back to me as much as possible to know what is going on okay.

Hanging in here to read from you

Jeff.

March 13 - 11:03 AM:

Sorry for not getting back to you; I had to work a double shift; one of my co-workers flaked out and didn't show up. I'm going to drive up to Uncle Jimmy's place today to talk to him about the money in person. It will take several hours. When I get back I'll make arrangements to send you your share.

What's Nigeria like? I've always wanted to travel, but I haven't had the chance.

Jim

Mar 13 - 11:29 AM:

It so great to hear from you Jim, just wondering what happen to you when i didn't heard from you last night.. Anyway i understand what you said about your work, hope your uncle will listen to you and give you the money, how much your uncle want to gives to you? Cu's i told him i needed $2,500

Jim Nigeria is well okay, it would be so great if you can travel to Nigeria for some experience and see new things around Nigeria.. I want you to know that when you are ready to send my own share from the money, kindly let me know so i can give you my information here in Nigeria to wired the money too. We still have a lot to do and make a good money together. Have you gotten yahoo account? Did you have where i can call you at? I do really want to know you more better.. kindly try to get a yahoo account so we could chat to know each other more better okay.

I'm hanging in here to read from you

Jeff.

Mar 14 - 10:34 AM:

Jeff,

Well, it didn't go well with my uncle yesterday. By the time I got there, one of his email friends told him that it was a scam. He's not going to wire any money anywhere. We have to think of something else.

I think we can get money directly from my parents, but we have to be smart about it. They aren't going to believe any "emergency" emails about people being stuck anywhere, so that won't work. But they are good and compassionate people and very supportive of their church, so an appeal for charity might take them in. I have an idea.

Send my mom an e-mail and tell her you are a missionary working with underprivileged kids in some poor country over there. Don't make it Nigeria, because the news here has told everyone about fake emails from Nigeria. Maybe Uganda or Kenya would be good. Tell her that you got her email address from the District Office of the Church of Christ, and your organization has started a new program for short-term missionary trips for young people, and you want to let her know about it in case she has children that would benefit from seeing another country and helping the poor. Say that the program is only open to people under 25. Make up a good name for your church.

Don't send it from Katie's address. Use a different one.

When she gets it, I'm sure she will mention it to me. I will convince her that Kate and I should both go, and I'll get her to email you back for the details and costs, and we'll go from there. I'll bet we can talk her into sponsoring another student or two as well. If we tell her that the trip costs $2500 each, and we get her to pay for Kate, me, and two other kids, that's $10,000.

My mom's email address is earlene@monkeyspit.net

Looking forward to working with you on this. I'll try to get a yahoo account set up soon.

Jim


Update: The story continues....

Mar 14 - 11:25 AM

Good to hear from you Jim, how are you doing today.. hope it fine as always? It was so painful that your uncle's friend burst the deal, I understand and believe you. Anyway we still on a deal and i believe we will make a good money and also known each other more better.

Jim i really understand about the new deal with your mom, I feels about the deal.. it was a good one and i believe it will work out for us. I will start working on the emails to sent to your mom about the church program, kindly get a yahoo account as soon as possible so we could have a chat okay.

Hanging in here

Jeff.


Meanwhile, Kate is extremely frustrated that she can't get onto Facebook after nearly a week. I try again to contact them, then suddenly have an inspiration. I fire off an email:

Mar 14 - 12:19 PM

Hey Jeff,

My sister is totally freaking out because he Facebook account is still down. Can you give me the password you changed it to so she can get back into her account? It will take some of the pressure off me here so I can work on our new plan. Thanks.

Jim

Imagine my surprise when he responds:

Mar 14 - 12:31 PM

Oh am so sorry for that, this is her facebook account password.. ( richman10 ) if this is not working out, let her get back to me with her facebook email address to help out... Okay.

We immediately go to Facebook and try to log in. The account is disabled. So then I have another idea; I go to Yahoo and try to log into "Kate's" Rocketmail account. Lo and behold, it works! We start reading all the emails he's received from our friends, and his responses, then go to the control panel and change his password from "richman10" to "igotchusucka" and start poking around to see what else we can do. Unfortunately, after a few minutes of these shenanigans, we get logged out. Apparently, Jeff got a notification via an alternate email address, and he changed his password to something else. Time for some damage control:

Monday, March 14, 2011, 12:47 PM

Kate told me it didn't work. Facebook apparently disabled her account. Thanks for trying. I'll call her and tell her she's out of luck.

Jim

Mar 14, 12:49 PM

Jim tell her to give me her email that she used to registered on facebook, i might help her through...Okay

He's persistent, I'll give him that. Of course I'm not going to give him any of her contact information. I go to Yahoo and set up a new account, then email Jeff again....

Mar 14 - 1:10 PM

She said that won't work. She can't use her old email anymore, it won't let her in. I'm going to let her solve her own problem there, I can't waste time trying to fix her accounts.

By the way, you better go change your email password; she said she tried the password there and it worked. She was able to see your email. I sure hope she didn't read our emails. I'd hate to see this whole deal get messed up by my nosy sister.

I got a Yahoo account set up. The ID is jimmacq@rocketmail.com.

Jim

After a while, I log into my new Yahoo/Rocketmail account and try the chat function. No response. I think the game is up. Oh ye of little faith.

Mar 14 - 3:48 PM

Oh i also notify that someone get into the account with the password i gave you to give to your sister so she can set her face-book account back, But i am a smart guy lol i got the notification immediately and do the necessary this on the account by changing the password to the account and also change some details in the account too. Nevertheless i will get a new yahoo account to use for our personal communication so our deal can be secret between you and I..

Jim i will send you an email with my new yahoo account tonight and also Add you to the contact so we could have a chat tonight... we really have a lot to talk about, i have some questions to ask from you okay.

Jeff.
