Phishing Scammer tries it on with CEO of an Anti-phishing software product “Online Armor”
So, I'm sitting there today working on something for a client when I received an unsolicted Skype Message with an "Important Business Proposal".
I normally mess with these guys a little, just to waste their time , but as I was on the phone to a client I just decided to get rid of him quickly.
And a bit more -- this is just starting and is a fun read:
It was a Friday afternoon, and about an hour since my chat with "Mr Dutu" - too early to go for a beer, too late to do much work. I could see he was still online.
So I thought I'd ask him a few questions...
[3:56:08 PM] Mike Nash says: Any luck yet ?
[3:56:48 PM] Mr. Robert Dutu says: just 1
[3:56:54 PM] Mr. Robert Dutu says: for over three hours
[3:57:07 PM] Mike Nash says: :( Business getting slow for you?
[3:57:13 PM] Mike Nash says: May I ask, how much you make doing this ?
[3:57:47 PM] Mr. Robert Dutu says: be my victim and you will get to know how much i can make from you
[3:58:05 PM] Mike Nash says: (rofl) Very good :)
[3:58:10 PM] Mike Nash says: You're a funny guy
[3:58:20 PM] Mr. Robert Dutu says: thanks (handshake)
Heh...
