Learn How To Scam and Phish

I am a phisher and scammer.

I had put up a couple of my laptops for sale on my local Craigs List. Sold ‘em that PM.

I soon received a couple of “I want to buy” from a couple of guys in Nigeria. They offered more than I asked to include shipping to Sub-Saharan Africa. They wanted my PayPal account which is fine, cause it’s just an e-mail address.

Then I get these emails fromĀ  ‘PayPal’ to an address I do not use with PayPal itself, about “It’s paid” “Ship Now” and so I am having gobs of fun winding these ***holes up. They are threatening legal action from PayPal, and acting all tough. The cool part is that I am able to document it all. I’ll post it when I get through this game and you can distribute it to your users, and family nubes to help buy them a clue.

This is fun!
