What? What did you hear? By the way, could you loan me a few bucks till Friday? I’m uhh… I kinda spent all money on something. Thanks – you’re a great pal!
Please do not take offense to this but I know that your comment is a scam. I see a lot of these types of comments. Honestly, that is OK with me. I need the help of someone like you. Maybe you and I can work together on a project that I guarantee will make you more money than 20 years of scam letters.
I work as a maintenace person for a group that does geological surveys in Namibia. Being the maintenance person, I have the keys to every building and every room here. A few weeks ago, I was working in one the buildings and found that money is stored there. I did not take the time to count it, but I could clearly see that there was several hundred thousand dollars.
I can easily get my hands on this money but I cannot leave with it. It would be obvious who took it if I disappeared at the same time the money did. What I need is a partner, someone who can physically pick up this money, get it far away from here, and hold onto to it for about a month or two until I can meet with them and divide it up.
I have written to a couple other people like you about this. All they do is ask me to send them money. They act like common beggars. I do not need a beggar. I need a partner.
Why sure, Jibble! Your story, although a little strange – seems to check out with me! I don’t know you well, but I can tell you’re a great guy!
I need your help first. You need to contact two people from failblog (I will give you their contact information later) and collect $200k from them. You wire that $200k to me, and I need to hold in my account for 30 days. I will then send the $200k to you.
The answer is simple. Few people in history ever got rich by being more intelligent or working harder than anyone else. Most people get rich by… having parents that were rich. We may THINK we’ve advanced a long way from the peasants-and-royalty times of old, but when you really think about it…
Last week in Poland some guy went to the other end of the country (size of New Mexico) and killed a guy for 2 years pretending to be a girl online. THAT’S EPIC FAIL!
Yeah, it kind of is. Big, flat, uneducated, poor, dusty, boring.
God I cant wait to move.
How the hell did I end up living somewhere that I read 3 books in a weekend instead of just the one?
Land of Entrapment….yo…’Burque bro…Green Chile Yo…Traffic Fiesta.
So her image was from a Florida sample driver license. That means that in the 2.5 years of talking, this “woman” only sent him 1 photo and never went on webcam with him. And he paid her $200,000. That’s $80k a year to chat with someone… not bad.
Happened to a friend of mine (well, a good acquaintance.) His online “girlfriend” first had him send money for a plane ticket, then she got into an “accident” on the way to the airport and of course he sent money for all the medical bills, etc. I don’t know how much he lost, but it was in the tens of thousands.
hahaha dudes are so predictable! I bet this happens all the time. FYI she probably doesn’t look like her “picture” if she only has “one” lmao I can’t get over how hilarious this is.
Wait, hold on, let me get this straight:
-He thinks that children of 2.5 years can use a computer and can write.
-He believes that 2.5-year-olds can have driver licenses.
-He is a pedobear and tells it to the police.
-He gave a random person 200000?
….he deserved it.
..why does this sound like a lot of Failblog contributors to me..?..
What? What did you hear? By the way, could you loan me a few bucks till Friday? I’m uhh… I kinda spent all money on something. Thanks – you’re a great pal!
I am a woman. $200k please. I would prefer it to be turned into Pound Stirling. (May not be a woman, may never see you again, you WILL be scammed.)
I tell you what L. I will give you $100k if you will help me get $200k from c.
I suddenly have a not-so-great feeling… I get that way when I deal with people who don’t have a full name, only an initial. hmmm…

TL;DR.

Umm… yes?
..shucks!..i was about willing to accept your story (except it was a bit too articulate..
Yeah, where are the spelling mistakes?
And where are the modalities? You have to mention modalities!
that is a remarkable change from 2 days ago… when you were a 9-year-old kid…
Shhh! lol

I await your response, my friend…
That’s it? It’s that easy??? I’ll get my account info to you post haste!
Step to it! This is a great limited-time investment opportunity!
Jibble, have you tried corresponding with Dean Cameron?
( clickie )
Sure, I’ll be glad to help you out. As long as you’re willing to advance me a few thousand dollars for cost of travel and accommodation…
..i’m right w/ya, AllGreat, pal..only i’m as broke as u..
I’m sure your assets are greater than mine!
i swear you comment on every post?
Did you mean to put that question mark there? Cuz…
Oh well… have a great evening!
He does! Isn’t it great?
I read this the other day in Chicago Breaking News. Part of me is sorry for him. The other part thinks he’s an idiot.
And the other part of you has $200k.
..dang, hag, quit partitioning Avis so much..
I divided her into parts????
ooooooooooooooo I did….
If I had $200K, I would have a better wardrobe.
If I had $200k I would get a cyber girlfriend.
if i had $200k, i would have $200k
Not for long……
*if i had $200k in non-taxable money, i would have $200k
A big part of me is LMAO. Sucker deserved it.
i was ready to bet “fake”… damn, never ever ever underestimate the stupidity of people
I couldn’t agree more. I don’t think its funny though, but I feel sorry for that poor old former rich guy, $500 for each person from those 4 nations.
azhahaha! c. u win!
She ,ust have cybered good.
*must
Because it was me. Lemme alone.
FOREVER ALONE
I have just one question: how can a guy who makes enough money to afford that kind of “ransom” be stupid enough to fall for this kind of nonsense?
Why do I live in a world where a stupid person can have that kind of cash on hand?
it’s called America
It’s called Illinois.
It’s called Naperville.
It’s called Naperville.
they are called humans
it’s called loneliness and desperation…
kinne: most humans have an IQ over 70 though ;right?
Maybe he borrowed it.
The answer is simple. Few people in history ever got rich by being more intelligent or working harder than anyone else. Most people get rich by… having parents that were rich. We may THINK we’ve advanced a long way from the peasants-and-royalty times of old, but when you really think about it…
This is just sad…. and somehow funny…
Yessir, the cutoff date is 2012 for a reason.
i agree douche got what he deserved… cant imagine how he fell into his money
This article looks fake. Some of the wording looks unprofessional. Just a guess.
But if this is real, DAMN, what an idiot.
It’s real, it made the Chicago Tribune.
It’s from the tech blog “gizmodo” thats how they write their stuff
You mean poorly written?
What. A. Mong.
This relationship lasted longer than most marriages!
And cheaper than some of them, too.
2.5 years? Y U NO THERE, Pedobear
Yeah i realized that too
Last week in Poland some guy went to the other end of the country (size of New Mexico) and killed a guy for 2 years pretending to be a girl online. THAT’S EPIC FAIL!
Hew took two years to kill the guy? What a sadist!
Wow. New Mexico is really big.
Yeah, it kind of is. Big, flat, uneducated, poor, dusty, boring.
God I cant wait to move.
How the hell did I end up living somewhere that I read 3 books in a weekend instead of just the one?
Land of Entrapment….yo…’Burque bro…Green Chile Yo…Traffic Fiesta.
The man has $200,000 to throw away, and still must be forever alone. Sad.

I wish I had a girlfriend of 2,5 years.
Nice and tight.
ohhh man thats sooo insensible
sick but funny
In every society there is a flow of money from the ignorant and stupid to the educated and clever. This is just another example.
This is why I don’t trust online relationships.
Happened to a friend of mine (well, a good acquaintance.) His online “girlfriend” first had him send money for a plane ticket, then she got into an “accident” on the way to the airport and of course he sent money for all the medical bills, etc. I don’t know how much he lost, but it was in the tens of thousands.
wow. your ‘good acquaintance’ is as intelligent as a doorknob
As a wise man said, a fool and his money will soon be departed
hahaha dudes are so predictable! I bet this happens all the time. FYI she probably doesn’t look like her “picture” if she only has “one” lmao I can’t get over how hilarious this is.
What do you know? Survival of the fittest applies not only to dumbasses but also their bank accounts
This kind of idiots are pretty much the reason some women have a bad opinion about men. Still, he got what was coming to him, that’s for sure.
Pretty disgusting what people are able to, actually. Poor idiot. Literally.
I guess there’s more than one Chris-chan on the planet after all.
Wait, hold on, let me get this straight:

-He believes that 2.5-year-olds can have driver licenses.
