Crazy!

Thanks for the “heads up”.

Saw that too. I did not give my info.

I also received a private message to contact her. I sent a private message to Martin three days ago and asked him to delete her. I haven’t heard anything back. Is no one tending this site? I have also sent a message to MsDebbie.

I don’t see why you are all concerned about someone
trying to extort money from you . It’s obvious that
you recognize this as spam . I gave my social security
number , driver’s license number ,and other linked
accounts to someone that turned out to be the biggest
extorter in recent history………my Banker . My Banker
had to pay 570 million dollars to each of the Fifty States,
plus Washington D. C . , in fines . Since they know how
to stack the cheddar , I went down and asked my banker
how to get that 6 million dollars from that spammer
chick . He said to" first do a dark web search to find the
exact IP address for the spammer . Next find all addresses connected with the account . Next , fly
to Nigeria and locate the call center of the spammers.
Next, buy an automatic weapon on the black market
( obviously ) . Next , intimidate employees until you find
the master mind of the operation . Break into the
master minds office or strong hold and break into or
steal the Safe . Shoot your way out if necessary .
There may not be 6 million in the safe , but it may be
a Large amount of cash . Enough to cover expenses +.
Unless , the master mind keeps his money in the Bank .
Then , You may have to rob a Bank . Shoot your way
out if necessary . Then head for the airport pronto ! " .

I’m with you Moment, when are we leaving?

Soon , Jack . I just need you to send me 5,000 dollars via
Pay pal , and I will pay you back as soon as we return
from Nigeria , promise ! ,,,,,,,, thanks .

I see that Florence Laurent is now on LumberJocks and has shown a project. From whom do you think she has stolen the photo? She even shows that she’s from Florida and shows a photo of a man and woman holding a project. Seems pretty questionable.

On more thing: Jack, you should go for the $6 million because her profile on LJs says: “Honest and Hardworking” so you can trust her. I’m sure you’ll be willing to share a piece of the $6 million with the rest of us now that you know she’s honest!

looks like lumberjocks took it down. I don’t see it.

L/W I am hoping to have it in hand by the end of next month. I want everyone to go ahead and order themselves a complete shop made up entirely of Festool products and send me the bill. Me paying the bills is course dependent on the slim chance we make it out of Nigeria alive, not that I don’t have complete faith in Moment’s leadership abilities.

Whitacre, I didn’t click on her project. It was a rather nice-looking bed but since I was pretty sure it wasn’t hers, I didn’t think she deserved a click.

Cricket just sent me a message that said “removed.”

L/W

I just removed here, thanks.

I wish that the serious woodworking topics would receive as much discussion. My last forum comment was hijacked, and my last project was ignored.

Weird ,…..my last hijacking was almost completely
ignored too .

Same here.

Moment, I have my passport, When do we leave?

I’m packing right now . I’ll pick you up in my Gulfstream.
Our support team will be standing by . They are anxious
to meet you !

I have a feeling that Florence Laurent is back . . . under the guise of Elizabeth Brown. Just a hunch. What do you think?

“Ruh…Roh ! " ……………bad grammar

On my fishing site recently a woman in England posted a sob story about her cancer ridden son whose big dream was to go to Boston and fish for stripers. The initial post was a little awkward but not obviously a scam. New members posts are moderated and the moderator allowed it. After a little discussion she seemed legit (didn’t ask for airfare or anything like that – just advice and possibly a guide). After it became clear she wasn’t a scammer the help came pouring out with offers from boat trips to supplying gear and guided trips. From real sharpies too. I’d be so lucky to hang out with these guys on the beach one night.

Anyway, it just goes to show they’re not all scams. But thankfully most scammers are dumb as a box of rocks and the scams are pretty obvious to everyone. Be careful out there on the interwebs!

Brian,

Your story just goes to show how generous and good-hearted many Americans are — one of the reasons so many scammers look to us for “riches.” The world we live in now is such that you look carefully on each of these incidents to try to ascertain their legitimacy. Oh, that we could turn the clock back when a handshake could be trusted and words were indeed true.

Thanks for sharing your encouraging story.

L/W

Nice story Brian, hope it works out for him. All those offers of help and gear shows how great people really are and I would put you
at the head of the line. Those guys are the ones who would be lucky to hang out with you my friend.

Oh rats I missed the show! I could do with $6million or at least a small share of it with you nice people. If I had too much I would give some to Martin he works hard and deserves it!

Maybe be Buy Madts a new sander too! …and a box of Ted neutralisers for moment
