so you all know that crap MyCupid? that thing for quizzes?

well thru that some chick claiming to be from Russia e-mails me and starts asking about me... I was very withdrawn and thought ahead of time "something's up"

So then after about 3 e-mails suddenly asks me to send her $75 USD so she could fly to US. I say "no" and that she can pay me 2K for a trip to Russia. She responds with a :( and became my personal account spam.

knowing this to be too good to pass up... I set up a fake E-mail address and grabbed profile info and pictures from random Myspace douches and sent her an e-mail:

Quote
"i found your profile and I find you to be very hot...
would you like to talk?

I'm a smart, tough,open minded, optimistic,crazy,funny solcialist. I just finished school and ready to start getting back on track. I like people that are'nt afraid of new experiences , and that are true to themselves and don't try to be something their not. I guess I should say mature, but willing to have a bad ass time as much as possible. I think the world is most interesting when you "Wing It".
actual quote from a random MySpace page!

with the random douches pic attached...

then I sent pictures of my "new car" and told her of the woes of inheriting a multi million dollar real estate firm from my dad. (other silly crap grabbed off a random LJ)

three emails later:
I very much hope that you write to me not simply for the sake of entertainment.
Sorry but we are still very poorly familiar. And consequently I to think that we should learn each other better.
Unfortunately now the hard time for me my mum to not work and I to have some problems with money.
Best regards

she has fallen for it hook, line and sinker. Her next e-mail will be asking me for money...

in the case that any of you think this is legitimate and I'm being cruel I assure you it's not:

Keep a log. All good scambaiters keep a log and post it. So do so, and post it here for our amusement.

Google Scambaiting for some good ideas. :)

Yeah, I love OkCupid, but there are a few of those damn scammers on there. I flag 'em every time I find 'em, but it's like Whack-A-Mole.

Don't forget to post wedding pics with you, the lovely bride and the dozen or so relatives of hers who move in with you overnight.
