Sorry, blacktip. You’re a much better citizen than Scammy.
So I’m playing “Julia Simpson,” the online scambag, making “her” think I’m about to send off both my painting and a refund check. She’s got to be thinking she’s hit the jackpot. Though I have my doubts as to whether she has the slightest appreciation for bird paintings; this scammer would probably throw out the painting and cash the check. I warm up my tone a bit with the signoff. I can’t wait to see what she’ll say when she hears I’ve deposited the check prior to sending the painting.

I’ve just returned from town where I had a million errands to do. I
didn’t have time to talk to my banker but I did deposit your check for
$3,250.00. I have pulled the painting from my archives and am packing it up
today. Is it all right if I enclose a check for the refund amount in the package
with the painting and send the whole thing, painting and check, to the 1826
W.23d St. address, Miami Beach?
Excited for you to have this painting. It’s one of my favorites.
Note the date. Heh. Julia gets RIGHT back to me.

Good to hear back from you and thanks for the update.I am so excited
and can’t wait to have the painting on my wall. Meanwhile, I spoke
with my husband and he will like you to send the refund via via (
Western Union ) money in minutes service back to his Assistant at the
Address: 936 Avenida Del Vista,
I was able to find some Western Union locations near you ,where you
can easily transfer the funds. See below.
You don’t need to have an account,swift codes or any bank codes but
you will have to pay Western Union fees which you can deduct from the
difference. I will like you to get back with the following
information as soon as you are back from the Western Union office.
1. Name and address of sender.
2. Total Amount sent after deducting transfer charges.
3. Money Transfer Control Number ( MTCN)
I deeply regret any inconvenience but i will like you to handle this
as soon as possible. Thanks and I’ll await your response.
I’m cackling now. Gotcha, Julia Simpson! I’ma make you wait a day or so before I get back to you.

Thank you for supplying me with the wire transfer locations.
I have a friend visiting today (she arrived last night) and we’ll be
busy here so I won’t be able to get into town today. I have to go into town
to send the painting so I’ll just wait and do all this the next time I can get there.
It’s all packed up and ready to go. Sorry to make you wait! but
life intervenes. I’ll get to it as soon as I can.
I can smell the nervous sweat all the way from Dubai, or wherever you are. BTW, your English is falling apart.

I got your email this morning and I will really appreciate if you can
go to town tomorrow morning and ship the painting and take care of the
wire transfer. Try and keep me updates as soon as possible.
I let out some more line for the thrashing shark. Can’t resist a smiley face at the bottom. Still friends, right?? I let Julia stew for three more days.

Well, it won’t happen tomorrow morning, because I have to prepare a
talk, pack the car then drive 2 1/2 hours to deliver it.
Realistically, it’ll be Friday at the earliest. Spring is my busy time.
At this point Scammy is probably thinking he’s never going to get his money or the painting, because the bank will have notified me that his check is bogus by now. So I throw out a little more chum.

Good news! I am on my way to town this morning with the painting. I plan to ship it, get the cost of shipping, subtract that from the $3450, then go to one of the wire locations you supplied and wire you the difference. I am so sorry it has taken me this long to get around to it, but I was so tired yesterday after my long drive I couldn’t make the detour into town. But soon you will have both the painting and the money.
Very best, and thanks for your patience,
Scammy’s waiting for that wire transfer. He waits all day. Finally he can’t stand it any longer and emails me after 5 pm.

I don’t answer right away. What happens next takes me completely by surprise…yiiikes.
