The Oilman II

This is a re-bait of The Oilman, which had hilarious results. In the first bait, it was continuing as expected when I started a chat session with Maria, a widowed cocoa millionaire. It seems that Maria, continues with the National Petroleum Agency of Sonangol Scam that I was currently in with Yusuf – meaning that they were both the same person! Obviously, this scammer is a complete idiot, so I re-bait from a different email account with disappointing results. My emails are in blue, his/hers are in black, my comments in red. Happy reading!


Dear Sir

The National petroleum agency of Sonangol is granting an Oil prospecting license/allocation for 24 million barrels of crude oil per annum to any prospective person/company.
The license has an operating duration of five (5) years. You shall be acting within the capacity as a licensed agent and entitled to a $3/barrel commission. I have a structure within SONANGOL that will guarantee a 100% success in acquiring this license.
If accepted we can work together on this business venture on a 50-50 sharing basis. kindly contact me for further details.
I await your response.
Mr. Yusuf Omar

I was still deciding which way to take this bait at this point. I also had a lot of baits going on at the same time, so this one fell by the wayside. I didn’t email him for about 4 days…


I AM WAITING FOR YOUR MAIL


I don’t know any lawyers in Africa.

Thomas

This is to acknowledge the reciept of your mail.For the Lawyer here to represent you here legally will not be a problem.I will recommend a good Lawyer to you anytime you are ready.

Let me speak to my lawyer here and see if he can do this. I have reservations about employing a lawyer that I have never met before. I let you know what my lawyer says after I tell him all about this – he can probably help.

Thomas


Dear Sir,

Thank you for your mail.Don't forget that,I was the person that contacted/approached you for this mutual business transaction and will not get you a bad Lawyer.In this case,the Lawyer on this should be a Resident Lawyer to ensure that things are followed up to the end.We are talking about Oil License here for the lifting.Everything must be done legally and accordingly.

However,get intouch with your Lawyer as you suggested and do get back to me accordingly.

Oh, you are looking for a company to do this? I am sorry – I misunderstood you. My company that I work for would not want to get involved.

Sorry for wasting your time.

Thomas


ok bye


I was surprised! I left it alone to see if he would contact me again and he never did. I don’t understand why he gave up the scam because I wasn’t a company – strange, very strange. He may have figured I was baiting him…
