Yes, I will loan you lots of money, but there is an application fee and a credit check fee and there may be some other fees later depending upon the results of the application process.

No way. This is a scam and the referenced website will most likely have you receive a check from them in exchange for your wire transfer to them and the legitimate looking check will bounce in two or three days.

Yes, it's a scam, and I'm sure that's the eventual outcome, but they seem to like to start by getting small sums and gradually escalate. At least, that's how the Nigerian scams that I've read about work. They start by asking for a little money, then they ask again, but a little more this time, and so on...

I think it's sort of like the boiling the frog trick.

I like the angle of stating this "person" was already scammed and that would lure the "duped" into a new scam.

Bob,

You need to look at the forum "rules". Green Text = said sarcastically

Nah. I knew it was sarcasm and I deserved it. In hind sight, I was assuming this was the first ever post on the OT forum about scams. How naive is that?

My website and e-mail address are published on some government websites. I get quite a bit of spam/scams. I only post some of the funnier or more egregious ones. I also like to put up ones that are new or fresh.
