There's mention of this scammer lower down on this page
The scammer claimed to be someone selected by the FBI to help deaf people and their friends with scammers. I told them I haven't been scammed before, so they changed to telling me that they had $250,000 for me to deliver via DHL and needed me to send them $500 via Western Union. They also said they've gave 22,000 deaf people $250,000 each out of the blue to help them out.
That smells like a scam so I told them that scammers liked to use Western Union. Then they said there were no scammers in the USA. I asked them why we had Enron and Timothy McVeigh and they said not to worry about those and to just send the money.
It looks like they found me through deafvp.com. I made a listing there with my name, town and aim sn because I just got a Sorenson vp. So they knew my name and town and claimed they needed my full address for sending the money to. So I gave them fake ones with streets that don't exist and they believed me. They also gave me an address in Illinois to send the money to through Western Union. I looked it up on Google Maps and found that it's a house with two vans in the driveway, one with a boat in tow. The other van was yellow. I hope it isn't a fake DHL van designed to clean out people's houses! :Ohno: The name the scammer gave me didn't match the ones I got when I did a reverse lookup on that address. He said not to worry about that because that's the name of the DHL agent. Yeah right, why would DHL have a place in the middle of a residential area?
The end of the messaging where I make him get tired of me:
I hope the scammer doesn't decide to send anything nasty in the mail for wasting their time. I sent fake addresses that don't exist, but they could still try. The scammer was stupid because he didn't recognize that a street named Ribaldry Street would be fake.
