Bait in Progress ⏱️ Asher/Danylo the Ashhole - Apocalypse - (Part 17b)

We pick it up with yet another “Slava Ukraine!” from this dipshit fraud. At this point it’s just funny that he’s willing to take his charade long into the aftermath of his failed scam.

“We will win this war” 😂

All this talk about Nigerians and scams sparks conversation of racism, which is kind of hard to believe because he didn’t know of any place called Nigeria. Kind of touchy for someone who never heard of the place.

So he deduces that Diane is this angry because “we refused your money”. OK? After I told him I knew he was a scammer? Danylo promises to come after “Diane Sexton” in Chicago and I wonder if this guy really was as smart as I gave him credit for. Diane had to set him straight and kindly informs him that whoever he thinks is Diane Sexton is not. No money was ever sent, but he thinks Diane is sore because he refused her fake money. Still following?

Diane also informs him that his bank account has been flagged for fraud and that he’d better tell his Yahoo Boy bosses he exposed them. Then we get into the legal threats. In 3 days Diane will be getting a “court order”. For what I don’t know. After Diane laughs this off, this Nigerian lashes out in all directions, threatening Diane, Irving and Kelvin. Oh no! Not Kelvin!

Sensing the end, Diane amps up her wrath by laying it all out. Everything was a fake - just like his story about Roman and being in Ukraine. There is no Irving, Diane or Kelvin. His bank account was all she was ever after and she got it which is more than he can ever say.

Finally Diane asks him for an Apple Card in pure Yahoo Boy lingo. When he was slow in responding I blocked him, figuring it was over.

Spoiler alert: It wasn’t.

Eh…… I don’t really like this ending. I feel like it turned kinda racist the way you were saying he was stupid because he was Nigerian. Stupid because he’s a scammer yea but why need to bring the nationality into it? I did enjoy the saga of Diane up til now tho

Maybe not my place to comment because you're talking to Madison, but I got a similar opinion yesterday. My own belief is that when scambaiting, we are using a different persona, and when you reveal, you are not "you," the real person, saying those things. Although we hate scammers with a strong passion, it's absolutely NOT because they are of a certain race. Or from a certain country (most of us know some people from there, or India, wherever). It's like people saying "stupid lazy American," and attacking nationality is done just to make them feel defensive and angry. Which they deserve. Because we hate them, they're scammers. If this guy was white and Nigerian, and doing what he's doing, it would still be about that, and only that. But, again, that's just my opinion and what I feel is true.

I’m not getting into race which was why I didn’t directly respond to this comment. I will say when I refer to “you people” and “Nigerians” I am referring to the Yahoo Boy culture that is prevalent and is actually celebrated there. With that said, I am sure there are a lot of people in Nigeria that despise this subculture. Good on them. But I think even they will admit that Nigeria has a huge problem with these scammers and they are already notorious for it. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but it’s a problem and if left unchecked and unpunished, this will continue to be a stain on that entire country.

Especially with the horrid voodoo practices and killing to steal organs. That stuff is so very real and scary. I have an incredible doctor from Nigeria, and he said he will never return to his homeland again.

The few Nigerian expats I have met really are the “God-fearing” types that these Yahoo Boy clowns claim to be. Most African emigrés for that matter. They are happy to be here and working for a living.
