A call from a 419 guy with caller ID hidden:

Mr. 419: Hello, how are you?

I: 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, )

I: Johnson! Is that you? (meanwhile, 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 recognize my
voice initially?

(Certain it"s a 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.)

I: Jooooooohnson! You are a specially bad
boy. Your father died, you didn"t so much as show up or send a note.
Your children will repay you with such.
Didn"t you hear about his demise? H was so bitter and full of
original curses for you.

Mr. 419: (Obviously subdued) I didn"t hear. I would have come.

I: Too bad. You heard your mama is leprous too? You didn"t hear
about that?

Mr. 419: (Now uncomfortable) No, I didn"t hear.

I: (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)

I: Johnson, 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,

I: 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 15 minutes of moves and countermoves, I owned up.

I: 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: Madman, and
you"ve been cursing me since morning!
