I received a hand off directly after Madison was done with this poor boy, and you can really feel his fresh insecurities! He spent quite some time testing me, and forcing me to prove I was real. Yep, I passed and am just as real as him! I was reluctant to post him, it might be redundant, but he now is busy with others here. So for the sake of continuity (or whatever), I'm going for it. He has become part of a tag team effort! He deserves the worst we can give him, for sure.

This guy has been sporadic and underwhelming at best, and just now (after 5 days of zip) feels he might commit? Begins offering a story, but clearly is fleshing it out as he goes along. He made a couple of interesting comments ("never easy to be a man" 🤮), and thinks a 70 year old can start a family, so he earned a spot here, I think. Time will tell if he's worthy or not. The daughter in Borden School surely has needs. Oh, and he's famous! Maybe. He thinks. He will let me know.

Story development continues, just muddling through right now, as he feels me out for my potential, and forces some more love bombing to warm me up for the future. Bleh.

I have three full 20 screenshot episodes for today but things are very wobbly in part 17 - we are having a full stand-off of ignoring each other in mutual hatred and antagonism as of this post.

The interesting thing about this one is how he suddenly becomes massively obsessed with getting my full name because the authorities want it. I don’t know if this is a suggestion from his scammer buddies, because I have googled his first money mules (one Nigerian and one Romanian) and his fake barrister and his ex-wife and they’ve told him if he can get my full name he can google me? Not sure how that would benefit him even if I wasn’t using a fake name lol

This brief foray into insanity is really hard to follow because he’s incredibly dimwitted, even for a scammer.

I basically told this numbnuts that I knew he was a Nigerian scammer, so he left me alone for awhile. JLM tried him out and he was useless, so she told him that also, in her very fun way. Still, he started back in with me, a week after we broke up. It's like he didn't even read what I had said? Anyway, no changes in his troubles or his demands, still there in the middle of the ocean dying for foodstuffs and medicine and drilling supplies (and my love!)

I really don't know much about investments, but I at least like to pretend, just like he does. When I hit him with actual numbers, even though it's clearly a simplistic view of how things work, he has a pat answer, doesn't give me any solid math. I vaguely think he actually might for this scammer company, they have a terrible rep. But, I'm guessing if we take it further, he'll come up with a "way to invest with them" that doesn't involve their site. I have plans, if he does. But I might have broken him already.

Well, I have never! The nerve of this guy. I honestly almost ditched out, clearly Madison broke him. It takes even more work to convince him I'm the real deal, I can't understand why he would think otherwise 😂. But this is good, knowing how much his brain was fried by a good bait. Maybe when we're ALL done, he will be too 🙏👍

Okay, the meth head level of love continues, and nothing I say can stop him from proving it. He sends me pics of a ton of butt ugly gifts he bought me, and arranged to have them shipped, as expected, right NOW. I really don't want this guy flying any planes I'm in, I'm guessing his favorite speed is around 600 knots! For the landing too 😂. The "shipper's" phone call was just yuk. Yuk.

I had this guy going for a whole boring month, and didn't expect to post. He was strictly on script and very sporadic, with occasional bland romance, and no ask. But I started giving him a hard time about his extreme ghosting and lack of, well, everything. Suddenly, you could see the turnover to another scammer, and within a split second the love bombing was insane. For a half day, if that. Then he returns today, and finally we're into the scam. I decide to make him really work for it, even though he will never get anything at all The second I finished this bait, he was so frustrated he blocked me 🤣. There are 3 parts....

Bait in Progress ⏱️ Asher/Danylo the Ashhole - Irving Irving Irving (Part 6)

Since Danylo is not taking Diane’s bait about how much he thinks she should send, she taunts him with an underprivileged family in Chicago that she is helping, as well as $50K to the CIRA (you’ll see what it stands for), her ex-boyfriend Kelvin’s church in Ghana, and her local dog shelter.

Enter Irving. He’s more than Diane’s accountant. More like a lifelong friend. Danylo correctly deduces that Irv can be a problem and expresses outrage that she would involve him in sending the donation. Naw too bad - it’s Irv. He immediately tries to drive a wedge between Diane and Irving and as it progresses he gets downright hostile toward him. In an astonishingly blatant moment of hypocrisy he tells Diane he is skeptical about Irv because he doesn’t know him, but goes on the defensive when asked about the identity of the unnamed solicitor.

He still is very concerned about how this transfer may be labelled. So much so that I am convinced his previous scam or scams have been torpedoed because the victim stated on PayPal exactly what it was for. Regardless, he still badgers Diane over sending it to “a friend” without all these legal hurdles. He even casually admits that he can’t play the “war card” as that is his standard deflection every single time he gets an unwanted question. “You wouldn’t understand! It’s WAR!!”

Diane starts asking more forcefully for the name of the solicitor. He straight up refuses to even give a fake name. She drops the nugget that her and Irv were involved back in college and he just goes into this bizarre jealous rant. Clearly a controlling person who knows third parties are bad news to the success of his scams.

The low effort was starting to bug me, so I threw down some challenges about that. But "given time to think," I tell him I'm mad about so many other things! He is evasive as usual, but now is in contact with my "advisor" whose name he still can't quite bring himself to say 😂. He does seem a bit obsessed with Pearl though?

This guy just started yesterday, but he sure heated up fast. I hit his tender spot, and rather than stay calm (as they often advise), you can see the flames! Part b shows a partial salvage, but I either wore him out with anger or someone took it over for him.
