I remember getting these as SPAM in my inbox, what a bunch of clowns.

Years ago when eBay rules were a lot looser I bid on a 1959 6611 PG Day Date but did not win. Later that day I received an email from a gentleman in Lagos who offered me a watch exactly the same for half the ending bid. LOL, that PG DD may have been the only one ever so I decided to have some fun with this thief.

I wrote back that I was very interested and wondered if he might have other watches for sale as I was trying to buy stock for a new business and had about 250k to buy watches with. My computer overheated he responded so quickly. He typed in that oddly formal English they used and assured me I had the top agent ready and able to assist me in spending that quarter million.

Of course, he had no clue about vintage Rolex and informed me just give him a list of watches and he would have them ready for shipping immediately! We spent a few days getting my 'details' to him as I kept making mistakes. :) After a few more days of me checking various watches with him to make sure they were available. LOL, he assured me he could provide anything I might need.

During all these communications I was schmoozing him, adding all kinds of extraneous information, family problems, how hard it was to buy vintage Rolex, health issues (mostly gastrointestinal :). Of course he was laser focused on getting the money shipped as rapidly as possible.

So finally I sent him a list of watches for him to price out and luckily for me the value, including shipping, was...250k! He could have them assembled for shipping in the morning and I MUST have the funds transferred today or risk losing out on the deal. I agreed to fund immediately but, as you might guess, there were some difficulties to clear up with the bank.

While dealing with these difficulties unfortunately some of my needs changed and I had to have him to replace some of the watches with others. Naturally, I was making him send pictures of all these watches. He was finding random watch pictures that had the right words on the dial and emailing them to me. If I was in a puckish mood I would tell him I didn't like the dial color or whatever and make him find more.

He was going insane with frustration at this point and I was afraid he might ruin my fun so it was time to end the game. I just stopped communicating. He sent dozens of panicked mails, all the way from tearful begging to semi-threatening.

After a few days I wrote back to inform him I had been in contact with another watch dealer in Lagos during our dealings and he was able to beat the price by 25k and the money was in his bank and I would be getting my watches very soon.

He went insane, he was incoherent for half a dozen emails. I could feel his pain at losing 'his' 250k. He demanded the other dealer's name, he begged me to buy more watches at half the price. The only true statement he made was; "you will never get those watches". LOL. After a tense couple of days I stopped responding and enjoyed reading his latest screeds over coffee every morning until one day he was gone.

As my mother always said, "If you want your fund, don't follow the instructions of hoodlums and imposters"
