I had to actually create a new email account to deal with these scammers. I can only guess at how difficult a job it must be to try to ruin another person's life by trying to steal their identity. My heart truly goes out to these brave individuals, who go out each and every day to perform the thankless job of taking vast sums of money form unsuspecting, innocent people.

Good tidings to you and yours, Sir Gabriel:
Thank you for getting back to me on the matter of payment for the
insurance on the Western Union transfer. It is unfortunate however,
because I was unable to read most of the contents. My retched neighbor
downloaded a macro onto my computer that converts anything written in
CAPS LOCK to an unreadable form of what appears to be Elvish. I have
tried most online translators in an attempt to convert this gibberish
back into English, but to no avail. It appears that you have been using
CAPS LOCK quite extensively in your message, and therefore I was unable
to read those sections. This is regrettable, because it appears
that these are the sections in which you respond to my request. I can
only assume that you are in agreement with my request to use a portion
of the account funds to pay for the transfer insurance, which should
conclude the matter of the payment. Please let me know if this is not
the case.
I look forward to hearing from you with the details of how I can obtain my funds.

Hello Sir Gabriel,
I'm going to be honest here: that response caught me by complete
surprise. I assumed that the funds themselves would be able to cover
the insurance for the transfer. Well this is embarrassing. What
exactly is the definition of a "hard cover" insurance policy? Why is it
preventing me from using my own money to pay for the transfer? I guess
I just don't understand the concept of this "hard cover" insurance; can you please explain it to me? Thank you for being patient
with me. I understand that I can be difficult, but the reason for this
is because I was born with a disorder that doctors call Tiger-Brain
Syndrome. As a result, I have a much lower intelligence than most
people, but I am very nimble and have great reflexes. So if you would
be so kind as to explain to me why I have to send money when you are
already in possession of all my money, I would greatly appreciate it.

I am still failing to understand how those two things are related? The

me not being able to use my money to pay for the insurance. I see no

Dear Sir Alan Grant
According to our banking protocols,
funds
ranging above $500,000.00USD must be insured for safe and secured
transfer, and the insurance charges cannot be removed from the said
amount of transfer, because the whole amount of $4,000,000.00USD has
already been lodged for transfer and its figure cannot be tempered with
in order to avoid any breach in transfer. if we attempt to subtract the
insurance cover fee from your funds, your transfer would be breached and
your funds will become VOID.

Dear Sir Gabriel,
Thank you for explaining the situation to me in further detail. I
certainly wouldn't want my transfer to be tempered with: that sounds
downright dangerous. Personally, I refuse to tamper with any tempering
processes. I am in agreement that this insurance will need to be taken
care of before the transfer can occur (now that I understand you folks
take such a hard stance on this "hard cover" insurance). Is this where
the "colour = pink" codes come in? I mean after all, that insurance
expense will be small potatoes compared to the money I'll get once my
transfer comes through, am I right??? In fact, now that I think about
it, I am willing to provide an additional $250 to you for your

Hello Sir Gabriel,
I know that it was only
just yesterday that I told you I would be
able to include an additional $250 with the insurance money (because
you have been so kind and helpful), but last night a freak accident
occurred that left my family (and most of my town) will excessive
property damage. It appears that several trees collapsed, breaking the
dam and releasing the river. As a result, the first two floors of our
house were flooded, destroying nearly everything. Luckily my family is
safe, but the same can't be said for many others in my town. The last
estimates indicated that 3,000 people drowned, 850 were killed in the
fires following the river flood, and 11,000 were wounded (including
about 1,000 people who contracted Schistosomiasis or Dysentery). Truly horrible.
With us needing as much money as possible right now to pay for the
damage, I'm afraid I'm going to redact on my previous statement and say
that I can't at this time pay you the extra $250 on top of the insurance
claim. I promise that I can pay you the extra money after this Western
Union transfer goes through. Can you forgive me?

Dear Sir Gabriel,
Thank you for understanding my situation. It breaks my heart to tell
you that my neighbor, Michelob, passed away just a few hours ago. The
river had swept away some of the attractions at our local theme-park,
releasing a group of alligators into the neighborhood. While his family
was cleaning up the devastation left by the river waters, he had been
carrying carrot cakes for his mother. Once the alligators got a whiff
of those carrot cakes, they just went to town on him. We were hoping
that he would survive the injuries he sustained, but it is with great
sadness that I inform you he did not make it.
I wanted to send his mother some of what little money we still have,
because she has to provide for three remaining children, which is
difficult given her occupation (she is an entertainer at the local
gentleman's club). Knowing that you are a caring and understanding
gentleman, I was hoping to reduce the cost of the insurance to donate
that money to Michelob's family. I can send $350 of the $650 to cover
the insurance if that is acceptable to you. Thank you for your infinite
compassion and wisdom.

Hello Sir Gabriel,
Who is this "we" business you mention? I had come to understand that I
was speaking to only you, good sir knight, and did not realize that
there were others involved in our transfer. This does not bode well,
because you never mentioned any third parties before. I do not feel
that I can trust you if you've been working with others. How do I know
that these people are not trying to steal my money. I can obviously
vouch for your honesty, but I have no idea if these others are
back-stabbing Australians or perhaps even worst:
Mongols. These
unknown people might even try to steal my insurance money without any
intent to actually send me my Western Union funds (however ridiculous
that may sound).
It hurts me to know that you have been working with others on this

Dear Sir Gabriel,
Thank you for clearing up your obvious grammatical blunder.
You are absolutely correct, there is very little time to lose. I am
very interested in investing into some new technologies with this vast
sum of money, and what better time to invest than right now. Strike
iron while hot, as my fortune cookie says. I will go to the nearest
Western Union as soon as possible to make this insurance payment. It
might take a day or two because our town is still flooded, so I will
have to wait to borrow one of the few rowboats accessible to us to get
to the Western Union office. Please be patient and refrain from using
CAPS because all I see is elvish/icelandic.
Please let me know if you acknowledge this transmission. I am wondering
if, once the transfer is secure, you would be interested in joining me
with my investments. I'm looking to invest in Banana research. Bananas
are about to make a huge impact with new banana technology available,
and I want to grab a chunk of that market. If we invest some of that
money I'll be getting into banana-related hormones, we'll be able to
develop car-sized bananas. Just think about the amount of banana bread
we'll be able to create with that amount of fruit. Do let me know if
you want in on this investment.

Hello Sir Gabriel,
It gladdens my heart to hear that you are interested in investing with
me in my Banana Research venture. Once the insurance payment clears and
my funds are transferred, we can begin discussing in earnest how to get
this business off the ground.
I have access to the town rowboat this afternoon, and I intend to send
the insurance payment of $300 this afternoon. Do you have any special
requests? I will send you the information once the payment has been completed.

Hello Sir Gabriel,
What is this!? Are you trying to swindle me? Of course I sent the
insurance payment! I will have to wait to use the rowboat again in
order to get back down to Western Union. What did they say when you
called? Is it possible that they did not send it in yet? If you are
trying to trick me and steal my money, I swear I will hunt you down and I
will make you regret stealing from Lord Alan Grant! I will destroy
everything that you hold dear to you if you are lying to me!
Your friend,
Lt. Alan Grant

I am not joking, there is no valid transaction with the money transfer
control number you sent us. Please send us a scanned copy of the payment
reciept script from
western union to confirm your payment.

You think I can start scanning receipts all willy-nilly whenever you
can't get access to the money that I sent you??? I'm in the middle of a
flood, bro; I need to use a rowboat to get to a building with a working
scanner! The next time I have the rowboat booked for myself (the
townsfolk and I have created a rowboat schedule), I will paddle on down
to Western Union to make sure that they have sent it already, and if
not, to see why their tubes are plugged. I don't have access to the
rowboat right now because my neighbor is currently using it to hunt food
for us on the far banks so that we may eat tonight.
Regards,
Prof. Alan Grant

We tried confirming your payment this morning and it bounced back again
stating that there is no order with the information you provided us
with. please verify your transaction and provide us with a valid payment
information.

From: Alan Grant
To: Evans Gabriel
Ok I paddled over to the Western Union in our town. It is a long trip
in a rowboat, but I stopped for a picnic about halfway. It turns out
that soon after I left yesterday, the floodwaters were so strong that
they collapsed the foundation of the building, effectively destroying
the Western Union in Juras Sickpark and any hopes for you to receive my
money today. I guess they weren't able to send out my payment in time
because the building imploded before they had a chance to hit send.
This is pure speculation, because I'm not sure anyone made it out of
there alive.
But fear not dear friend. There's whisperings of another Western Union
location not far from where I live. I am planning on making the trek
TODAY. I will let you know as soon as I return that I have made the
insurance payment of $250. It will very likely be later today. Please
send confirmation that you have the ability to check your account once I
have made the payment.

Sr. Alan Grant

We would be able to confirm your payment immediately you provide us with
a valid payment information. And please note that the insurance charges
is $650 dollars. Not $250. You previously told me that you would like
to send $350 because you intended helping your neigbour with some money.
So the insurance are especting to recieve $350 from you as deposit
payment for your insurance cover to enable the secure release of your
funds.
as soon as you are done making payment for the insurance
cover of $350 please send us the required details of payment for
confirmation.

Hello Sir Gabriel,
Another of my neighbor's children has died in the flood, so I figured
that an extra $100 donation would be appropriate and that, as a
compassionate person, you would agree that helping her out is important.
I have arranged to use the rowboat for an hour and a half later this
afternoon, so I will inform you immediately once everything has gone
through.
Thank you for always being there for me,
Sgt. Alan Grant

Great Sir Gabriel,
Success! After traversing some pretty
dangerous waters (including one region that appeared to be a nesting
ground for some seriously poisonous snakes), I managed to make it to the
fabled Western Union building. It was like an oasis in the middle of
the desert. Nothing but water coolers and pens as far as the eye could
see. And that is where I made the payment for the insurance on my
transaction. Please note the details below.

Sir Gabriel,
Kindly note that I am now very aware that you are trying to dupe me. This is the
second time
that I have had to paddle/swim all the way out to Western Union, only
to be told that you conveniently can't find my money. You need to stop
lying to me! My payment absolutely went through and I have the receipt
to prove it! You had better explain yourself sir knight, or else we are
going to have a big problem on our hands. And by "we" I mean "you,"
and by "big problem on our hands" I mean "bunch of poison burning
through your lying vocal chords." Western Union has given me
confirmation that the money has indeed gone through. It is clear that
either you are lying to me or that you gave me the wrong sender
information. Up until this point I have considered you one of my
greatest friends. I even used you as my emergency contact for my water
polo team waiver. If I find out that you've used me, you will rue the day SO
HARD.
Your pal,
Sir Alan Grant

Hello Sir Gabriel,
It appears that you've switched font on me. How was your weekend? I
hope it was glorious. I spent mine trying put put back together the
wreckage that is my life after the horrific river disaster.
As I have mentioned before, I have sent you the payment TWICE now. I
even have the receipt to prove it this second time. Perhaps you gave me
the incorrect bank information for whom to send it to? Let me know if
you wish to make sure those details are correct, because the receipt I
have is proof that the money was in fact sent. Kindly note that the
insurance money was indeed sent to the details that you provided for
me. So the only way this could not have worked is if you sent me the
wrong details.
Thank you for looking into that,
Barr. Alan Grant

Hello Sir Gabriel,
Please see the attached copy of my payment
receipt from Western Union. Once you have agreed that the insurance
payment was in fact paid, please provide the transfer details for my

and to invest in our Banana research fund in which you promised you
would partner with me.

Dearest Sir Gabriel,
Kindly note that you must be mistaken about my receipt. It was not
marked as "no good," in fact it was marked as "good." I'm not sure
where in that document you saw a "no good" marking, but I could not find
it anywhere. Please send me back the document so that I can verify you
are looking at the correct pages.
Please let me know once you have sent the document back so that I may verify.

Hello Sir Gabriel,
Please inform me as to why my receipt was invalid when it clearly
contained the correct insurance transfer information. I have sent you my insurance
via Western Union like you requested, and if there is an issue with the
receipt, please let me know what is wrong. Otherwise I will demote you
from Knight back down to Surf so fast it will make your head spin.
Please send back my receipt with a note letting me know what the issue was.
