I received a message that was too good to be true. Apparantly, Frederick Brasher died in a plane wreck in Africa and he had 8.4 million dollars in a bank account in Nigeria. Lucky for me, we have the same last name and I can claim the money so that it doesn't go back to the governemt. Yay me!
Ha! Although I had my imagination racing, I knew in the back of my mind that this was somehow a scam. They didn't realize that they were messing with a dirt poor motherfucker and I have nothing to steal.
Anyway, I read up on Nigerian e-mail scams and come to find out, this is a pretty common one. They were going to try and get bank info (as if I am that stupid) and upfront "attorney fees," that I would have to pay in order for them to release the money. This motherfucker was dumb enough to give me his phone number. I spoke with him and he assured me that it was all good. Ha, I just called him to make sure his number was accurate.
I reported him to the secret service, along with his number and email. I know that it won't necessarily get resolved but it was nice being on the knowing end for a change. I did send him a rude letter back, calling him a few choice words. Let's see if he respondes......
Peace,
STREETPUNK

I don't have a grudge, but that doesn't change the fact that this post wasn't any good.

Method's more or less giving me a hard time and I was playing back. Tom has a personal grudge against me for something that happened around Jan or Feb. Everything is so cut and dry when you are only 15 or so.

Yeah, I can't tell you how many "nigerian e-mail scam" posts I remember reading here. Let's see . . . counting this one, that would be . . . one?
Tom and Method don't seem to like you much. Wonder why?

This is a new age of ubersite. Bullshit like this doesn't pass as a post anymore.
Tom, you have officially crossed the line into the dreaded state of dumbass.
Nice to see you back Stantonio.

Method,
If it annoyed you so much, why do you keep coming back? Plus, I almost always +2 my own shit. Why? Because I have good self esteem. I like my work, otherwise, I would not post it. Get off your "uber patrol," high horse because it's not impressing me or anyone else. Retard, if you attack me, I will fight back. If you say you do not like the post for whatever reason, I will leave your opinion be. Stop crying though. No one cares.

Jesus, you're like a noob, but not. Stop +2ing yourself
I know how long you've been gone. I know how long you've been here. It doesn't change the fact that this post annoyed the shit out of me. Just because you're an uberelder and you went away for a few months doesn't mean I have to kiss your fuckin ass.
Get over it.

Worthless.....I mean, Method, do you know how to read? Good, check a few posts back and see how long I have been back at Ubersite. I know math might be kind of a hard concept for you but try adding the numbers 2 and 2 together and see what you come up with. I haven't been here for awhile and I just came back. Now, I know that you are a loser with no life and have the time to peruse everything as it comes in but I don't have the time to read all the posts from the last few months. Thanks for trying to belittle me but you know the old saying...."come to the table with a little more than a squirt gun and a small weener," or something to that effect.
Vermin, why would I care about other's insecurities. You are certainly entitled to your opinion but attacking me because of my tastes is immature and lame. That's like me saying, "You are a stupid fag for liking Indian food." It just doesn't make sense.
Hadooken, what's up bro? Long time no see! Glad to see you have stuck around!

This from a guy name Vermin.......jack ass, why does my taste in music offend you so much? Is it because you are insecure with yourself and need something to latch onto for pride...."My musical tastes are better than yours!!!!" Ok, buddy, whatever helps you sleep tonight.

Hahahha, no. Nothing offends me except Janet Jackson's nipple. Seriously though, I would lose your email address in your user name. Just a suggestion is all...

Maybe I should have been clearer in my reply, since you so obviously put me in my place by using my user ID against me, you fucking retard.
This has been done over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over on this site. No one wants to hear about this gay Nigerian scam anymore.
