Dear michael q,
The fellow owing my customer wihin the states had to make out the whole funds his was owing my customer to you according to my customer. "say again"

So since you have deposted it in your account kindly keep me posted as soon as the funds are ready so that we can move ahead with our transaction and also have my customer's funds made out to him via western union.

keep me posted.
Greg....



Keep me posted.

Got to love the way this fool writes I sent him an e-mail saying theres a 7 day hold but my account will cover it if he wants to procceed!!!

You should tell him that there isn't a Western Union near you, or that you don't trust Westen Union, and that you would be happy to "send the funds" via your own "certified bank" check. (you know, just like his.)
See what his response is.

heres the latest he actually called my phone some mid eastern accent

Hi michael,
Thanks for the update. I will like you to locate a western union agent by a gas station nearby and have a western union money transfer made out to my customer’s wife

"yea ok" Im on my way LOL! this guy is too funny he is trying for the big bucks no messing around here

who my customer has already told me that she needed about $9,000 to pay for her two daughter’s hospital bill in London and right now my customer is in Asia, Also his in-law needs some funds in Holland to complete a major project he has at hand over there.

he wants me to send money all over the world

So after I read your mail and discussed with my customer he said I should give you their western union information so that you can have his excess send to his relations.



Here are their western union information.\



(HIS WIFE IN UK $9,000)

miss cochita rodriguez

4 louise road

london

E15 4NW





(HIS IN-LAW IN HOLAND $3,190)



MR TOKS BANKOLE,

HOLLANDERSTRAAT 20,

2517HK,

DENHAAG,

HOLLAND.
