The usual scheme they use is to order something online, then pay for it with a fake check or credit card. They pay more than the amount due, then ask you to pay their shipping company directly.

I can make cupcakes for birthdays for girls, but not for boys since my religion prevents me for cooking for boys. I am a Pastafarian and we follow the rules of fettucine.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Am very sorry for late reply you can call me on&nbsp;801) 613-XXXX&nbsp;or text so that l can talk better<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><strong>I&#8217;m sorry, I am unable to talk because of an accident with a sharpened cake dowel. Don&#8217;t try to swallow one of those things! Since I can&#8217;t talk I don&#8217;t have a phone, obviously, so I need to use email to communicate. My Pastafarianism prohibits me from using a phone anyway, that&#8217;s one of our big no-nos. Some people try to cut corners and will use a landline but I try to maintain the laws of Pasta by not using a phone at all. It&#8217;s pretty easy when you can&#8217;t talk to begin with.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Is the party for a girl? I don&#8217;t want to waste your time if the cupcakes would be for a boy and I can&#8217;t do them.

And I want you to have the cake ready for pick-up on 18th of June. Let me know if you can fill in the date.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>response for June 12:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Hi, Nancy,<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>I can do that&#8230;I&#8217;d advise you against writing &#8220;Happy Married Life&#8221; on the cake, though, I had a friend who did that and they ended up getting a divorce. It was really bad, he cheated on her and she hit him with a hammer when she found out. He totally deserved it, but she got arrested anyway.I&#8217;ve had a few friends who got divorced, actually. Are you sure you want to get married? Why don&#8217;t you just live with your fiance for a while and see how it goes. You never know, he might drive you crazy and you&#8217;ll want to kill him or hit him with a hammer or something. That would probably tell you that you shouldn&#8217;t get married.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(They wrote back with the same request the next day)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>hi, Amanda,<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>I can do that for you. I think that you wrote to me yesterday but you didn&#8217;t write back, so I&#8217;m glad that you wrote back today. I sure would regret missing out on an opportunity to make a cake for 250 people! that would be the biggest cake I&#8217;ve ever made so far. I usually do really small cakes, like the ones that you see wrapped in these little packages in the store when you&#8217;re checking out, they&#8217;re called twinkies, have you seen them? So a cake for 250 would be SUPER AWESOME to do!<br>That cake would cost $187.50, since I&#8217;m just starting out and I don&#8217;t want to charge too much, so 75cents a serving seems okay. Do you send me the money first, or do I make the cake first? how does this usually work? I don&#8217;t make people pay for cakes too often, so I don&#8217;t know. Also, do you know what size cake pans I should use? And I have another question, if I have to make pink roses how do I make them pink? I usually use white icing so I guess I could make some pink icing instead, but how do I do that? I guess I&#8217;d use food coloring, but I only have red, not pink, so how would that work?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Hello,<\/em><br><em>Thanks for the swift reply to my order request, and your concern as well am very grateful and I have attach a photo of what I will like you to bake for me.<\/em><br><em>On making the cake, Yes, I will prefer you use a white icing, and it should be decorated with flowers as seen in the picture , I think that will be more reasonable. So the cake should be covered in fondant, handmade floral and packed in different boxes and let the inscription be writing on one as \u201cHAPPY MARRIAGE LIFE\u201d And as I have told you don\u2019t have anything to be worry about on the shipping of the cake it will be well secure and in a good condition on arriving the location of my wedding reception, the shipper will be coming with there refrigerated truck for the pick up and it will be ship under the fragile shipping insurance scheme.<\/em><br><em>So I want you to calculate for me what will be the total cost of the order including the decoration including tax if included and also I want you to add $900 for the cost of the pick up and the shipping, so once I have your reply for the total I will remit my credit card for you to charge for the total cost\u2026so that you can have the order book right away. And once you have the order in progress, I will provide you the shipper information, and they will be the one you will give the $900 for the pick up and the shipping to enable the pick.<\/em><br><em>I will be waiting to have your reply for the total cost.<\/em><br><em>Thanks and God bless.Amanda Smith&#8230;.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><strong>Hi, Amanda,<br>I can&#8217;t open the picture but that&#8217;s okay.

If it&#8217;s going to be white icing that&#8217;s okay, but I already mixed up the pink icing for it, so can I make it pink instead? I figured that I&#8217;d get a start on it since I&#8217;ve never made a big cake like that before so I don&#8217;t know how long it will take. I figured out that if I made a bunch of red icing, then added a bunch of white icing to it, it makes it pink!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Check it out, that&#8217;s pretty cool. I&#8217;ll have to write that down in case I need to make pink another time, then I&#8217;ll remember how to do it.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>One question, what flavor do you want? I&#8217;ve been working on a new flavor, it&#8217;s called &#8220;sardine cream with bacon.&#8221; It isn&#8217;t what it sounds like, it does have bacon in it, which you wouldn&#8217;t expect from the name. So far people have been saying that they&#8217;ve never tasted anything like it, so I&#8217;m hoping that you like that flavor so I can practice it on your cake.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Hey, what do mean you can&#8217;t open the attachment???

Since you&#8217;ll pay for the trip, I figure it will probably be about $1000 per kid, or $12000 total. Better add some extra in there because they kind of cause a lot of damage. I usually have to pay for a lot of broken glass whenever I take them anywhere. The 8 yr old is pretty destructive and he seems to be able to find any antiques in the area and just rips them apart!

My open faced tuna sandwiches are a delight for any palate. I use only the finest generic mayonnaise substitute and imitation tuna for these little triangular pieces of edible magic. They need no refrigeration and rarely give anyone food poisoning. Only occasionally, not often enough to even worry about for the most part. Cost for an individual serving packaged in the finest cardboard box is $50 per sandwich, which would bring your total to $5000, plus a service charge of $12,000. I will also need an extra $15 to buy a new pair of scissors to cut the triangles of bread because I broke the last pair I was using when I was trying to cut a flap of rubber that was peeling off of my tennis shoes. Plus a charge for ingredients, which isn&#8217;t included in the $50 charge. So the total would be around $27,432.86, give or take.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Yeah that is too and very expensive can you also do a tray and how many people a tray can serve and let me know if you can do a grilled chicken caesar salds and how much do you served per person<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>I agree that it&#8217;s expensive, but would you want to skimp on such an important party? Can you imagine the joy on the faces of your guests when they sink their teeth into that delicious imitation tuna? But I&#8217;m not totally unsympathetic to the budgetary concerns of my clients. I also have a &#8220;second tier&#8221; cuisine that you can purchase for your guests&#8217; consumption. They&#8217;ll hardly even notice the difference in quality, and the price is considerably lower. The only problem is that what&#8217;s on that menu is dependent on what I can find in the dumpster behind the Taco Bell up the street from me, and I can&#8217;t get in there until they close at around 2am. So if you don&#8217;t mind waiting for a late-night menu with variable pricing, I can throw something together for you. The cost for that will probably be around $18,000, since the danger there is the rats and broken glass and I usually have to pay for a tetanus shot before &#8220;diving in,&#8221; no pun intended. The last time I went&nbsp;shopping there I ripped my black dumpster diving outfit that helps me hide from the security cameras, too, so I&#8217;d have to charge you for that as well. So the new total would be around $28,000. At this point I&#8217;m going to turn you over to my business partner, Chef Listeriosis, because his area of expertise is dumpster cuisine.

So just get back to me with the total cost of all the items only. Hope to read from you.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Hello, Are you sure that you want to get 20 of the teledu traps? Whilst they are the most popular of the devices, it is rarely necessary to purchase more than one. The teledu is a wily beast, but once one of their ilk is trapped the others flock to save him, so it is generally understood that the trappage of one teledu will result in the easiest capture of the further pack. In addition, I was unaware that you are located in Manitoba. The last time that I tried to ship the teledu trap to Manitoba I understand that the client had difficulties with the customs at the Canadian border. The border agents were unaware that Manitoba is currently experiencing a difficult time with roving packs of teledus, so they were suspicious of the number of traps being sent.Perhaps you would like to change the order to 40 of the wishbone detecting devices and remove the teledu traps? If last year&#8217;s teledu infestation is under control a box propped up on a stick will probably be sufficient to control your teledu problem, and it would avoid the issues at customs.thank you<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Hello,<br>thanks for your email, the teledu traps was not for only me alone we are many that wanted to use them, and also about the Canadian border, never mind a shipping agent that will pick them up has all the papers to show that was why am ordering from you,they are in the US so not to worry on that,just send us the total cost of all of them so we can proceed.<br>i will be waiting to hear from you<\/em>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>I understand, I hear that the teledu problems are getting worse, so of course there would need to be many traps used. The cost for the traps is $5000 each. They are construced by hand out of the finest reeds and plasticizinated fiberboard, and each one is a spacious 20&#8217;x 20&#8242;, allowing for the easy capture of the wily teledu. How large is the truck that will be coming to pick these up, by the way? You&#8217;ll need a large vehicle to transport them since they are extremely spacious.The wishbone detectors are unfortunately currently sold out after the recent Thanksgiving holiday, due to the large number of turkeys that needed to be detected in order to be caught for dinners.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Hello,<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>thanks for your email,actually the shipper has a 4 by 4 fit container to pick them so they know already because i have inform them all about it and they said this was not there first pick up of Teledu,so what information will you be needing on my credit card to charge for the payment and more also let us know the amount of it all so we can know what else to do.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>am waiting to hear from you.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>I&#8217;m sorry, I don&#8217;t understand&#8230;is it a 4x4Foot truck?

Please verify with your shipper that they&#8217;re able to handle a 900 ton load, as it would make little sense to continue the transaction without the ability to transport such fine materials to their ultimate destination.

I&#8217;m 42 and live in my mother&#8217;s basement because my job doesn&#8217;t let me earn a lot, but I got a promotion recently so I&#8217;m saving up to get my own house. I work at McDonalds and I&#8217;m in charge of the fries.

I don&#8217;t have a lot of money so that money would be very&nbsp;helpful if i got some of it. I could buy a bunch of stuff, like a house and a car and this awesome barbie outfit that i saw on ebay. I have a corner of the basement here decorated with Barbies. Have you ever seen them? I don&#8217;t know if they let you play Barbies in Africa,&nbsp;South America ( I still can&#8217;t find that city on a map) but it&#8217;s the best thing ever made. And I don&#8217;t mean the new ones either, only the original ones with the really pointy toes. The movie&nbsp;is a terrible thing too. I went to the new Barbie movie and it made me cry because it just wasn&#8217;t right.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>I feel like I know you already, so I want to tell you to make sure that minister keeps his hands to himself. I don&#8217;t want anyone messing with my special lady. I went out with a girl once, it was on a date to the Barbie movie, but she didn&#8217;t want to go out with me again. I think that answering your email will bring me true love because I can tell from your letter that you are not the type to like the new Barbie movie.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>I send you my love from&nbsp;&nbsp;the&nbsp;basement<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Hello dear,<br>You should first contact the bank in London as they should be on a better position to advise you on what to do.<br>Just feel free to contact them today as I have already told them about you.<br>In fact let me compose a letter for you send to the bank.Please copy this letter below and send to the bank today.<br><\/em><br><em>&#8220;Sir,<br>I am the foreign partner of Miss Helen Kalushi whose late father deposited the sum of US$5,300,000.00 in your bank before his death.She has asked me to assist her thereby transfer the money into my account as she wants to join me so as to continue with her education here in my country.I hope that my request will be granted&#8221;<br>Below are the e-mail addresses of the bank.<br><br>(bank info again)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>HI, Helen,I tried to get one of those prepaid cards to load the money on but they have a $500 limit. I&#8217;ll look around to see if they have one that will go up to $5.3 million. mommy is getting a little tired of driving me to the store, though. The letter to the bank manager says that you&#8217;re going to continue your education in the US. I like that, but I think I should add some details to tell them where you&#8217;re going ot school to let them know where that will be. If they ask me I don&#8217;t know, so if you can tell me where you&#8217;re going&nbsp;to school that would be good. Also what you&#8217;ll be studying. My dad teaches at the local university here, he&#8217;s a former FBI agent who used to work with internet fraud, so he teaches classes on network security and how to track down and prosecute foreign scammers who try to get money from people. I know that you&#8217;re not a scammer because you want to send money to me, not the other way around.

I found out that you have been writing to my son when I did my weekly check of his email account. Your $5.3 million dollars is no temptation to me, &nbsp;I have plenty of money from the oil wells, and when&nbsp;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211; tells you that he lives in my basement he&#8217;s referring to the apartment on the lower level of the mansion. He tends to exaggerate when he says i drive him places, the chauffeur does that. He&#8217;s a bit angry that i made him get a job before letting him have the entire trust fund worth $423 million, but that money was set aside for him and he needs to learn the value of a day&#8217;s work before he gets it. He&#8217;s obviously trying to get around that by getting the money from you, and&nbsp;I just won&#8217;t allow that.I would like you to stop writing to him immediately. Even though he is 42 years old he is still my baby, and i won&#8217;t have any foreign hussy trying to get&nbsp;her claws into him! So back off, and the next time I find that you wrote to him I will have you on an episode of catfish faster than you can say &#8220;scammer.&#8221; If you have any questions feel free to write to me at the internet crime center&nbsp;http:\/\/www.ic3.gov\/<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I get a constant stream of emails from cake scammers.
