sent him a reply.. didn't give any info at all.. want to see how far he'll take this even after I told him I was partially disabled




Hello Mark

thanks for the reply.. I am really needing to make some extra money. I had an accident last summer and broke my back so times are hard right now and I need every extra cent I can earn to make ends meet.. I would be happy to take great care of your mother and her nanny while she is in town..let me know what the weekly wages would be please. I do have my own vehicle but im thinking the Honda would be better as my vehicle is a truck and she may have trouble getting in and out

Thanks Bob

Welcome to Scamwarners rigdriver.

What you're doing is scam baiting, and nothing wrong with that as I do it too, but it's the topic of our sister site at 419eater and they can warn you of simple ways to keep safe and secure doing it.

The risks aren't great but, the last thing anyone needs is a scammer making life difficult for them. If you do it making yourself unidentifiable and so that the scammer can't retaliate, it's so much more satisfying and sensible.

They not only preach, but also welcome hearing of baiters' tactics and exploits, and will give you encouragement, tips and ideas.

You're welcome to be a member of both sites - as I am.
