Please read and laugh it out!!!



You need to read this discussion between a 419 guy and his prospective prey.



It's not uncommon these days to receive strange calls with foreign numbers. These callers invariably have one juicy business or the other to discuss from 'abroad'. If you fall for the sweet talk, there goes your money.



I got a typical call very recently, here's the gist:



Mr. 419: Hello, how are you?



Ayo: Fine. Please, who am I speaking with?



Mr. 419: Haba, don't you remember me? Who do you know in UK that could be calling?



(Sensing a scam, I threw in a trap…)



Ayo: Johnson! Is that you? (I don't know any Johnson in UK.)



(Thinking it's a break, he swallows the bait)



Mr. 419 : Of course, this is Johnson! How come you didn't recognise my voice initially?



(Certain it's scam, I decided to punish him verbally and financially. I had the time that morning so I was going to assist him waste his call credit.)



Ayo: Jooooooohnson! Kai! Omo buruku gbaa ni o! (You are a specially bad boy) Your father died, you didn't so much as show up or send a note. Omo a se iru e fun e! (Your children will repay you with such). Didn't you hear about his demise? He was so bitter and full of original curses curses for you.



Mr. 419: (Obviously subdued) I didn't hear. I would have come.



Ayo: Too bad. You heard you mama is leprous too? You didn't hear about that, abi?



Mr. 419: (Now uncomfortable) No, I didn’t hear.



Ayo: (Enjoying myself thoroughly). Too bad. Is your wife that foolish too? Not even a word from her after you folks married without our blessings? If the husband is not wise, is the wife lame-witted too?



Mr. 419: She's fine. I'm certain she'll get across to you. There's an issue…



(Breaking in before he begins his story)



Ayo: Johnson, O se mi o: you offended me. I sent you money to buy me a car and you just disappeared. When am I having my money back? You want me to curse you too like your father did? I don't have his kind of patience I'm sure you know. I won't wait that long before I give you what you deserve.



Mr. 419: (Grunted). This issue is important,



Ayo: Shut up!!! When are you sending money home? Haba! We sent you to school, clothed you and sent you abroad, Are you now a 419? Stealing from me your friend too. Your father was right to curse you, And you can't escape it if you continue like this. It's not a curse.



Mr. 419: I'll repay you.



After about 50 minutes of moves and countermoves…I owned up.



Ayo: See Mr. 419, I don't know any Johnson in UK. I just needed to teach you a lesson. Go get a proper job.



Mr. 419: Were! Oloriburuku! Lo ti n sepe fun mi lat'aaro! (Madman, and you've been cursing me since morning!)



Ayo: Disconnected.
