Dear Choki,



I must admit that I am disapointed. Here I am, offering you $65,000 and planning to travel to London because I trust you and want to help you, and you can't loan me $75.44 for a couple of weeks! I wonder if you really take this arrangement seriously?



I also wonder that because you never answer my questions. I asked about your religion, because I think it is important for us to have a good relationship before entering into this kind of business contract, but you didn't answer me.



Maybe you don't want my help after all? If you don't want my help, please let me know and I will leave you alone, but if you still want my help, then I still want to help you. But we have to work together as a team!



Awaiting your reply,

MongoLloyd

Dear Mongo Lloyd,



i have told you that i can not loan you money to do this,in the sense that my entire family is being monitored by the un secret agents.


no financial transaction from our side and no money avaliable for any of my family memeber as my father has closed up every source of we laying hand on any fund because of security reasons,to avoid spendingof any form at all.



is not that i can not loan you the request fund,but i have explained the reasons behide it.please if your very serious please go ahead and arrange as you have known the importance of you being fully involved and what you will get in retunr,you are not just helping for no reason your helping because you know what you will profit at last too.



sorry to say this the questions you asked makes you look every unserious in doing the business. you have to meet me or any of my family member before such questions will be fully answered not in the mail for christ sake.we are doing some thing sensetive.



i await your reply and to know your plans,



choki taylor.

Dear Choki,



I am sorry for pushing so hard for the $75.44. I understand that you cannot risk arranging that loan at this time. Maybe you can buy me a coffee when we meet and we will call it even!



As far as the questions I ask you, please understand that I am a Canadian and here in Canada, we feel that it is very important to get to know about a person before entering into a business transaction with them. Canadians like to feel like friends with their business partners. I understand that this is not the practice in your country, so I will respect your customs and stop asking so many personal questions.



Although, I understand from your code (using the word Christ) in your response that you are Christian. So Happy St. Mookie Day! I hope you will enjoy the day and will find many opportunities to peek in windows at unsuspecting people, in the tradition of St. Mookie.



Now, since you have made it clear that you will be unable to help with the remaining $75.44 needed for my ticket to London, I am going to search for a second job. Maybe Uncle Otto (the famous proctologist) will pass into heaven sooner than that, but if not, I need that money, so I will find a good job picking silk flowers on a farm or washing paper plates at a restaurant.



Be patient, soon the transaction will happen.



Your bosom buddy,



MongoLloyd

DEAR Mongo Lloyd,



SEE THE NEEDED DOCUMENT ATTACHED AND GET BACK TO ME.I HAVE

CONTACTED THE SECURITY COMPANY AND NOTIFY THEM OF YOUR FLYING TO MEET WITH THEM IN LONDON.



HAVE THE DOCUEMTNS COPY SEND TO THE SECURITY COMPANY.AND LET ME KNOW WHAT THEY SAY.



REGARDS,



CHOKI TAYLOR.

Dear Choki,



Thank you for sending me this paperwork. I am sorry for not replying sooner, but I am working hard to save the money for my ticket to London. I got a second job tending the rabbits at "George and Lenny's Fatted Land". It's nice. Rabbits are so soft! But one of them bit me! Rabbits sure have sharp teeth! Have you ever been bitten by a rabbit? They sure have sharp teeth! But soooo soft! I like soft things.



I will forward a copy of the document to the security company.



I am still waiting for my uncle to pass away so that I can get my inheritance and we can complete our transaction. I feel bad waiting for his death, but I know that it will be for a good cause so that makes me feel better. Uncle Otto is holding on, but I think he will die soon.



He asked to be buried in his black suit, but I think his brown one looks better. Which colour do you suggest?



I hope you are doing well.



Your friend,



MongoLloyd

Dear Security Company,



Choki Taylor told me to e-mail you for details of when and where to

meet someone regarding signing papers in London for the transfer of funds.



Thank you.



Mongo Lloyd

ATTENTION:Mongo Lloyd,





THANK YOU FOR YOUR MAIL.WE HAVE NOT OFFICIALLY RECEIVED ANY WRITTEN LETTER FROM MR CHOKI TAYLOR REGARDING YOUR REQUEST T KNOW ABOUT THE TAYLOR'S CONSIGNMENT.



COULD YOU KINDLY ADVICE MR CHOKI TAYLOR TO CONTACT US IN RESPECT TO YOUR REQUEST.



THANK YOU



WILLIAM CHIRS

DIRECTOR

UNIVERSAL TRUST & SECURITY INC

LONDON

Dear William,



I will ask Choki to get in touch with you, but I don't think he will like it. He hates when I ask him questions.



Meanwhile, may I ask you a few questions?



Which airport should I fly into for London? Heathrow or Gatwick? Also is there a hotel in particular where I should stay? I would like something near Hyde Park. I love Speaker's Corner on Sunday mornings!



I have another question regarding my flight to London. You see, before I can go and pay for the transaction (Choki advised me that it would cost $65,000 US Dollars), I am waiting for my poor old Uncle Otto McMaha (the famous doctor from Goat See Men's Health Clinics) to pass away. This sounds morbid, but he has left me enough money in his will to pay this amount for Choki's family.



The doctors have assured me that Uncle Otto will not live for more than two or three weeks, so I want to go ahead and book my flight to London. Unfortunately, I am short $75.44 (Canadian dollars) for the ticket. Of course, with the situation that Choki and his family find themselves in, they are unable to help me out (although Choki assures me that he would if he could).



I am wondering if your company would be willing to loan me the $75.44 (Canadian) for the remainder of the ticket. Then when we have completed the transaction in London, I would be able to pay you back, with interest.



Let me know what you think.



I will contact Choki regarding getting in touch with you, but like I said, he doesn't like me to to ask him things.



Sincerely,



MongoLloyd

ATTENTION:Mongo Lloyd



YOUR MAIL WELL RECEIVED.

OUR COMPANY MIGHT NOT BE IN POSITION TO ASSIST YOU PAY THE DEMURRAGE CHARGES.

WE WILL LIKE TO HAVE A COPY OF THE CERTIFICATE OF DEPOSIT,AGREEMENT CERTIFICATE AND A COPY OF YOUR INTERNATIONAL PASSPORT COPIES.TO ENABLE US UPDATE OUR RECORD.



SINCERELY,



WILLIAMS.

Dear Williams,



Hows are you?



Thanks you for getting back to me so quickly. Sorry I haven't gotten back to you yet. I have been working extra hours to save up money for the flight to London. I must admit that I am disapointed that neither you nor Choki Taylor can loan me the $75.44 that I need to purchase the ticket. As I have explained, I am about to become very wealthy when Uncle Otto passes away, and as we are about to enter into a very profitable business venture together, I would have thought you would be willing to loan me a few dollars. But if you can't, you can't. I'll just have to get over it. But it hurts.



ANyhows, I will send you my flight information after I have booked the flight. As I said, I have had to take a second job to save up enough money. I am tending the rabbits at "George and Lenny's Fatted Land Animal Shelter". Do you like rabbits. I do, except for the one that bit me. I think I might have to go see a doctor!



So, I will send you the flight information and hotel information soon.



Wichs of these hotels would you suggest?

http://www.hotel-assist.com/hot-hpn.html



I think the blue one looks nice, don't you?



Anyhow, I will send you information about my trip soon.



By the way, Uncle Otto is almost ready to pass into heaven. I hope it is soon, because I don't want to see him suffer so. He can't even poop on his own anymore!



Then when he dies, I will get my inheritance and I will have the $64,500 Australian dollars that you have requested. I will let you know when he passes away.



I hope you are well. I am looking forward to finally meeting you.



Sincerely,



MongoLloyd

ok,i will wait till your uncle pass away.

please this is so ugle to hear contact mr choki talor and deal with him

when your people are ready then get back to me please.

Dear Choki,



I am feeling much better, so my trip to London to complete our deal is fast approaching! I am getting excited and I think about it a lot. Even when I am sleeping or when I am practicing for my upcoming full-contact violin recital! Can you believe it? I haven't been this happy in a long time. Thank you for bringing me this happiness. You truly are a good man!



You will be happy to hear that I have almost raised enough money to be able to purchase the ticket to London. As soon as I have done so, I will fax you a copy of my ticket and my passport, so that your people in London will know who to look for and when.



As I said, I almost have enough for the ticket. I am still short $32.86 (Canadian Dollars - or "Loonies" as we call them, isn't that strange?). I know that in an earlier message you said that you would be unable to personally loan me any funds, but I was wondering if, since the amount is now so much lower, you would be able to find a friend or business colleague who would be able to advance me that sum? Keep in mind that $32.86 is only $11.72 US Dollars, using today's exchange rate. If you could arrange that, it would mean that we can move forward with our deal very quickly and we can both become much richer and your family can live more comfortably.



My Uncle's doctor has assured me that Uncle Otto's illness will take his life within the next day or two, so I will be sure to have the money for the demurrages by the time I leave for London. Of course I am sad that he will be leaving this earth, but he is in so much pain that it is really best. And his passing will mean that we can complete our deal and the world will be a better place because your family will have the money needed to live their lives as God intended.



So, make sure to get back to me as quickly as possible regarding a friend who can loan me the $32.86 Canadian Dollars and we will be that much closer to our deal being complete.



Thank you for your help and remember, it a mirage!



MongoLloyd

Dear Choki,



I haven't heard from you in a long time, so I am worried that you have decided not to continue our business relationship. I hope that this is not the case.



Just to let you know, my poor Uncle Otto passed away three days ago. I am now in possession of the inheritance that he left me, which means that I am able to purchase my ticket to London and make the payment with the security company.



However, I will wait until you get back to me. If I do not hear from you within the next week, I will pursue other opportunities for my new wealth. In fact, I have been corresponding with a gentleman from South Africa who has made me an offer similar to yours. I am not sure how either of you got my e-mail address but such opportunities are a gift from God and we are best not to question them.



As it turns out, the South African gentleman's offer is much more financially attractive than yours. However, I made an agreement with you and intend to keep my end of the bargain if you still intend to keep yours. As I said, if you don't get back to me soon, I will go with the other offer, which is more valuable anyhow.



I hope that we can continue to do business together. I have come to feel like friends.



So, let me know when it would be best for me to fly to London.



Sincerely,

Mongo Lloyd

Dear Mongo Lloyd,



thank you for your mail.so sorry you uncle have passed away.





all the same may i know when you set to fly to london and i wish to talk to you while your in canada for verifications.



your telephone will do alot more good for me and to know whom i'a dealing with.i must talk to you in canada before you ready to fly to london.call me from any pay phone if you don't have a working phone in your home and i will call you back immediately on the pay phone number.



waiting to hear from you.



regards,



choki taylor

Dear Choki,



Thank you for getting back to me. I was very concerned that you had decided not to do business with me any longer.



Thank you for your offer to discuss this business venture over the telephone. I tried to call you from a pay phone, but I don't know your number! I called directory assistance, but they didn't know it either. I got really mad and said "What kind of Mickey Mouse operation is this anyhow?" I mean, really, they are supposed to know everyone's number!



So, I tried to dial a few numbers at random, hoping that I would finally get the right number. After a few hours, I hadn't reached you and I had to use the toilet, so I stopped dialing. It was fun, though. I met some really nice people, especially Gary from Copenhagen. He invited me to come visit someday and see the statue of the Little Mermaid!



The reason why I was calling from a pay phone is that I think my phone might be bugged. You see, the police have decided that my Uncle Otto did not die from natural causes, but was killed. They have implied that I killed him, which is rediculous! I would never kill a family member.



But they are watching me all the time, so I cannot make such calls from home.



I'm certain that this problem will be all cleared up soon, but in the meanwhile, I will wait before I give you my home telephone number. Please send me a number where I can reach you.



Thank you



MongoLloyd.

Dear Mongo Lloyd,





call me on this phone number as iam presently in nigeria:+234-**-*******5 i will be expecting your call.

Ok Lloyd, now for the clincher.. Email Choki McChicken about what a lovely time you had in London, all the cool stuff you saw, etc.. and how nice his cousin seemed, even though he appeared to be in a bit of a rush after you gave him the money, but, you know.. you can certainly appreciate his professionalism. So uh.. where's that money transfer, anyway?

Aw, you shouldn't have censored the phone number... give it out after you finnish the prank, if you're worried that someone might call and ruin it.



I think now, though, is when you should hand it over to the police and get an elaborate sting set up.



Either that, or tell him about how someone tried to mug you yesterday, and how you lost him in the city. But, you spent all night doing detective work and found out who he was and this morning you paid him a visit at his house.



See if you can scare the Shakespeare out of this guy.



But the 'having a nice visit in london' one is another good alternative.

I posted this suggestion to the last thread on this subject, figured I would post it here since this one is more up-to-date.



I say play it out until his cohorts go to meet you at the airport. When he emails back asking why you did not show up, pose as a relative and inform our dear friend that "Mongo Lloyd" passed away last week due to head injuries sustained in a car accident on the way to the airport. And because good-old Mongo was such a trusting soul he left his uncle's inheritance to his business partner, a man by the name of Choki Taylor.



If he wishes to collect the $65,000 inheritance, all he has to do is come to the USA to sign some papers.



And be sure to let him know that both punch and pie will be provided. That gets'em every time.
