Jerrys_family


The contract was one of the stock ones with all the options on it. All they had to do was delete the options that didn't apply, but THEY DIDN'T EVEN DO THAT! So I'm taking it upon myself to fill out the contract (including a full years severence pay, and a pet goat).

The other guy never responded to the Call of Cthullu bait. Hmmmm, he must fear HE WHO BUT SLEEPS BENEATH SUNKEN REI'LEY!

Anyway, my response:

Quote:
Dear Jerry,

This is sooo cool! I will be the bestest teacher to you and your kids. I just KNOW Jerrys kids will be the bestest and brightest! You will be soooo happy and I will teach them so good!

When does the job start? Where do I meat you? How will I know you when I meat you? Their is SO much to do!

Get back soon!

Hugh

and then to Jerry

Quote:
Mr. Jerry,

Who will meat me in Africa? It is a big place and I have never been to Africa. Will it be you or Mr. Iyasala? My mom says she wants to know who will be taking care of me before she will be able to sleep at night, so send a picture of whoever will be at the airport. My mom says that people get kidnapped and killed in Africa, so she wants a picture of the person who will be meating me so she knows it is ok. Send a picture and hold up the sign so I know it will be you. Make it a nice sign. Make "We love a Hugh Drack the Cunning Linguist" on the sign so my mom can see you and know it is you so she will leave me alone and not worrie.

Send it quick!! The emmigration people have the paperwork ready and I am filling out all the forms.

Hugh Drack


That should be nice.

Also, got a return on he Call of Cthullu bait; I'll post it as soon as it gets a bit more interesting.

No that's really how you spell it Rolling Eyes

This has all the hallmarks of a classic scam.

Of COURSE that's how you spell "Meating". Please notice that Hugh Drack spells ALL his words the way GOD intended! Smile

Yes, I'm actually a member of both the scambaiter and 419 eater. One of the fun things to do is send the money via secure WU (a very secure method, since the money is SO secure, no one seems to be able to get to it) to a far-off random place that they MUST go to to pick it up.

Any suggestions where we should send him? Anyone? Bueller?

While Hugh Drack is currently dueling with Jerry (seems his mom wants a picture of Jerry holding up a sign that says, "I love a Hugh Drack" so she knows her son will be safe). Francis Thurston has heard the Call of Cthullu and must escape the THING from beyond the Stars....


Quote:
Dear Mr. Owen,

I have been an English teacher for several years now in Boston, but
must move on. My uncle, a professor of Semitic languages at Brown
University, recently died after being jostled by a mysterious sailor
at the port, and the dread that hangs over my head forces me to move
as far away from this cursed place as soon as possible.'

It would be a great place for me to come, relax and go over my uncles
notes while I assisted you and your family with their English.
Please let me know if you would like to interview me for the job.

I have one request, though. The room that I stay in MUST have a
light that is on 24 hours a day.

Hope to hear from you soon,
Francis Thurston


Yet again, it seems that I have what it takes

Quote:
Dear ESL Teacher Francis,
We are very glad to hear from you which we appreciate very much and am so sorry for your late uncles death and i realy pity your thoughts concaining him but what you have to do is to try and be your self that was the way God wants it besides i think you are the right ESL teacher for my family but please to start the procedure of your papers just send me your references for me to send you the contract letter to sign okey.

Looking Forward to Hear From You

Best Regards

Vincent Owen




Quote:
Dear Mr. Owen,

My contacts with other people have been limited, but you may contact my current advisor: [email protected]. Thank you for your concern, and your belief in god, but I am more worried about the darkness that seems to follow me. I hope Nigeria is far enough away to run.

Yours,
Francis Thurston


Hmmm, will Jerry, uh, I mean Vincent get worried? HELL NO!

Quote:
Dear Francis

We have heard you and do understand your mood but dont worry about the far distance i will personaly make every arrangement to make sure you arive without any scrach okey and i will be paying your Visa and flight Ticket just to make sure you have no problem and with me you will be alright so please open the contract letter attarched bellow and sign it for the procedure of your documents and you are required to send it back immidiatley you are through with it, Thanks

Looking Forward To Hear FromYou

Best Whishes

Vincs Family


After a while, when Vince does not respond (must have been busy with someone else, wonder who....), Francis sends this:

Quote:
Mr. Owen,

What has happened to you? Are you still with us on this earth? I fear for your safety and life. Since asking you to resend the contract you have not responded. It is just like my uncle. One day he was there, the next, gone. Has the darkness taken you?

Yours in dispair,
Francis


So he writes back, but Oooops!!! Now he's JERRY again!!

Quote:
Dear Francis,

How are you doing, nothing has happen to me and never will anything happen to me okey so their is nothing to worry about, actauly i have been so busy with works this days but expect it very soon i promise and try to remove death fear from your mind and always believe in god is my advise to you okey so expect the contract letter to be resend to you as soon as possible.

Yours Family

Jerrys Family


But no contract. So now Francis replies to him, calling him JERRY. He does not notice.

Quote:
Jerry,

I dispair to hear from you again. You have lifted my hopes and now you crush them. You MUST send the contract again or I shall go mad with fear that you are part of the evil plot to trick me into insanity.

Desperately,
Francis


He replys as Vince again

Quote:
Dear Francis,
Am so sorry for the delay i told you to stop fearing that nothing is happening to me meanwhile just open the attarched below and sign the contract letter to enable us further the process of your papers and you are required to send it back immidiately for further notice, thanks

Looking Forward to Hear from you

Yours Family

Vincent Owen


So, the deal is on:

Quote:
Vincent,

Here is the contract. It is a great relief for this to be done. I
can't explain to you the fear that I will see that horrible sailor
that was the last thing my uncle saw. When he died, his face had
such a look of terror on it that we had to have a closed-casket funeral.

There is one unexplained phenomena though: I have been receiving
strange phone calls, but when I pick up the phone, there is nothing
on the line but a strange, high-pitched squeal like a soul in
torment, then nothing. Just deep silence.

Have you been trying to contact me?

Yours,
Francis


Vince is not worried:

Quote:
Dear Francis
How are you feelling today i hope you still cope fine well i thank you very much for the signature that is been made which means very soon you will be coming down here to teach my framily as well as daine with us please you can now contact the Agency at [email protected] he will furnish you with all the details concaining your traveling document, Thanks and always be strong so try to contact him am sure he will reply you possitively ..

Yours Family

Vincs Family


So, the evil gets even closer....

Quote:
Vince,

I wish this to hurry, for there is SOMETHING trying to get close to me, for what purpose I do not know. I can not sleep anymore and electronic devices seem to malfunction whenever I am around.

My faculty advisor and I were in the park, discussing my move to Nigeria, when a strange old man came up to us. He asked if I were Mr. Thurston (some people say I look like my deceased uncle), and when I replied "yes," he gave me a strange statue. As soon as I received it, a fear went through my body. It is a statue of the creature that haunts my dreams!! I have included a photo of it. Perhaps this is a creature from Nigeria?

Please hurry, I must leave this cursed place,
Francis


Here is the picture I sent:

Hooray! Got another one today! This time Jerry has changed his name and his picture of the family is different but I recognize my old buddy, I'm quite sure. Here's what he sent...look, he even forgot to take the parantheses from the (insert oil company name here) bracket.



"My name is Wilson Brown.
And I am married to Lilian. We are from
Portugal, working and residing in Nigeria on contract for (SHELL).
My wife and Children are not really good when it comes to speaking English hence we require an ESL Teacher to come and spend One year with us. You
would teach my wife and my two kids how to speak English and
some writing too. This is very important to me hence I would be
offering to pay you $4500 every month.
You would have a Private Live-Out or Live-In Accomdation depending on
your preference with Private Bathroom, SittingRoom and Bedroom. Your room
would also be furnished with a TelevisionSet, an Internet Ready
Computer System and a Fixed Landline telephone. If you can drive,We can make arrengment for that too.
You would take them in English Classes every evening. You would also
have the weekends off .Weekends with us is very fun as we visit fun
spots, go sightseeing and amusement parks. Do not worry about your travel
arrangements as we would assist you in that regards when the time comes.
I have attached our family picture for you.
Please write me on my personal e mail address
[email protected]
I hope to hear from you in earnest."

I replied in earnest that "the job sounds wicked, bro, but isn't nigeria in, like, africa or something? and don't everybody who go's there get all like shot up and AIDSy and Al Qaedad and stuff? But like, whatevs, I'm just flippin burgs right now anyways, bro, an I'm from Da Hood and I know all about that @#@$, I can totally bust those &^@$$% up if they come at me or yer precious liddle flowers. Probly i'll take it man, even though i got an email from some other bro who whants me to come play, like, football or soccer or something, for his team in england, so i maybe will go for that instead, you know?
"Reply in confidence, Willie me bro. Peace..."

Still no reply tho. Guess I went too far overboard too early.

Yes, Poor Jerry. I'm still baiting him. A recap of the story so far:

Hugh, desperate to leave the USA, has applied for a job in Nigeria, but his overbearing mother does not want him to leave. Desperate to prove that this is a good job with a kind employer, Hugh asks jerry to send a photo of himself holding up a sign that says, "I love a Hugh Drack". The first attempt, however is a PhotoShop crapout, and Hugh careenes towards a life of shame....

Hey, I'm living on the STREETS here, just get me out of here. Send word
when you send the tickets so I can go steal them from my mom's house.
You wouldn't BELIEVE what I have to do to get the sleezeball here to let
me on the internet.

the nubmer is under the bar code on the lower right corner. it is
1xxxxxxxxxx. Just go to that website I sent you and type in the info.

Quickly. this guy here is trying to pimp me out, saying I could make it
as a *beep*. Wouldn't you love me more if I weren't?

Love
Hugh



*Please note that the WUSecure thing is a modality to convince the scammers that Hugh (or whoever) is SERIOUS about the money. It's like politics (or sex, I suppose): Jam today will keep them happy for a while, but jam TOMORROW, well, THAT will keep someone going for a VERY LONG TIME...
