    Oh this thread has made me chuckle!
    Radio 4 are running some of the Bob Servant emails (wednesday nights, 11.00ish I think). Absolutely hilarious!
    I hope your email crusade provides some good entertainment, I've not had any for a while - my most recent missive was from Chase Bank regarding my currants account.

    I can also put in a little extra if that helps so you can offer your dear dear Diplomat a good hot bath and some clean clothes from Lost Property as I am sure he must be totally ripe by now.

    The best one I read was where the baiter convinced the 419er to send photos of himself being tattoed...

    An absolute gem, I too have tried baiting these thieves in the past, and they nearly always fall for it.
    419eater is one of the best sites for reading about this, especially the pictures some of these prats take of themselves!!:T

    My dead brother, Derek Trotter, send the money to Benin City (Nigeria) rather than Benin (the country). What will Wilfred make of that? Also, Derek only sent 55$ - will he notice?





    Dear Diplomat Wilfred


    It has now been a week since my brother's funeral. It was actually quite a sad event but Raquel was very upset of course but DCI Roy Slater enjoyed himself. In fact, I told DCI Roy Slater about your deal with Derek and he showed a great deal of interest!


    As you can see from the test question, Derek clearly had a portend of his impending death.




    Here is the information you require:


    Sender: DEREK TROTTER


    Number: 24192419 (Moneygram)


    Country: Benin City, Nigeria


    Amount: 50$


    Question: What is it like up there with the Peckham Angels?

    I fear for Diplomat Wilfred's safety. He arrived at the airport two weeks ago and has had no contact with anyone at the airport. But now, he seems to have lost contact with the outside world too; his email address has been deleted!

    Does that mean that poor Wilfred has been been eradicated too? Please list your prayers below for his safe return to Benin, Bangkok or where he needs to travel to next.
