Scammer Grammar

Scammers are always looking for more effective words. Many people have learned to be on their guard, and they’re likely to suspect an overly aggressive phishing phone call from a fake credit card customer service agent speaking accented English. But victims still fall for the bad language use every day!

Online scammers use similar techniques. When texting or emailing their marks, or posting information in fake profiles, or messaging, they often work from “scripts” of prewritten boilerplate language. The most effective conversational gambits are saved and distributed to other scammers in the network, and they cut-and-paste the scripts into their grifts at crucial moments.

BUT THEY SOMETIMES ARE FORCED TO IMPROVISE!

This is where the scammer grammar becomes more obvious.

The following are examples of language we have seen and copied to share their unscripted writing styles:

Val / Valentino AGUSTIN justval4u@aol.com

I am a laid back young woman who likes to conduct her life with honesty and integrity. I am here in search of a Man who will be ready to love and inspire me. I’d prefer a much older man who at the same time is ready to play the role of a FFL. I did realize older men are better and more experienced lovers than their younger counterparts. He will spoil and shower me with all of his loving as I hope to give him my love 100 percent. He will be ready to make me his Doll and his Angel. Whatever you want, just Make ME the PERFECT Woman for YOU!

Miami Beach would be fun I’d like believe, wouldn’t it?

VAL.

I am a very nice, polite, honest, committed and caring person looking for the

same. No, I actually am that and I am very confident of. I am a fairly humble and reserved man but I

can promise you this, if we are the right people for each other, the woman you looked at last and

the women that you look at next will never love you, cherish you and adore you as well as I will.

That I am totally confident about. I’m not looking to figure out the rest of a relationship over

coffee at Stabucks but in general people should know where they want to headed and know what they want at the end. KINDLY DROP ME WHERE I CAN CONTACT YOU AND I WILL SEND YOU MORE PIC AND ALSO

tell you more about me for easy communication as a result of my present work.

Elizabeth Hershey elizabethhershey37@yahoo.com

elizabethhershey37 at ya who dot come. Fun loving tall blonde who loves to travel, meet people and make new friends. Never sweats the small stuff, easy going, down to earth, optimistic and happy go lucky. Mostly in blue jeans but love to get dressed up once in a while for a night on the town. Enjoys golfing, dancing, watching the sun rise over the mountains or going for a walk along the lake shore. I joke about finding a little cabin in the woods one day but there’s probably some truth in that, I like my privacy and prefer being out in the country. I listen to good old rock ’n roll while puttering around the house or outside in the yard. Definitely not shy, the world is such a wonderful place to go exploring, the best things in life are absolutely free, you just have to look for them. A good hearted person with a sense of humour, for without a laugh a day where would we be? A lady can never have too many friends so there’s always something to do and places to go, and that’s a good place to start, just hanging out for a while and if something happens after that, okay, and if not? I’m okay with that too. Not into the bar scene but do like to have company come over for dinner, or watch a movie, go for a drive with no particular destination in mind, just wherever the road leads to.

Maureen Jones loveyourhear Maureenjones362@yahoo.com

Life was not too kind to me but due to the difficulties I had to live through I have become the person I am now. Being a young woman I have mature views to life and the precise understanding of what make the relationship work out. Many couples fail as they try to change their partners, which I consider unnecessary. Respect of a person you love, understanding of his needs and desires, the wish to find a compromise is primary important. The main thing is to love and make all necessary efforts in order to keep the fire burning. I am a sincere, honest, affectionate woman, a faithful and reliable, I can find a common language with various people easily. I enjoy doing things about the house, creating comfort at home. I am looking for an easy-going, optimistic, kind, caring, loyal, gentle man, the one who loves home and family life.

What do you call a lie?
Is that how to responsed to my message back?
Don’t make mistakes?
If you find some mistakes in my profile, that doesn’t mean I am a liar and I wont lie about where am from,I am not from the state, I am proud to say am from GHANA because I was born and raised here.my luck in a search of a man in my life it wasn’t that good, Whenever I mention Ghana everybody run away from me, I don’t know what is going on here and I don’t understand it either, Is GHANA bad country to live, I met another man early on when I told him am from Ghana, He started calling me names. It really makes me feel sad, he misjudge me and Didn’t give a chance to know more about me, Are you also going to run away because i come from GHANA?, Whatever reasons that is making people run away, ALL what i have to say is that In these word, they are good and bad people anywhere, And now a days the internet is full of craps and I understand that very much, there are some people who come on here on the internet to take advantage of people and that is very bad thing. To tell you the truth fact, A true Ghanaian will never come online to play games on people, But there are alot of foreigners in country because of war going on in some part of Africa country and GHANA is known to be the most peaceful country In Africa and our Economy is improving because of the OIL in the country, Cocoa and other natural resources, Some bad foreigners has come to these country and damaging the name of GHANA and the issue has reach the government. They are working on that arrest any bad people who is blackmailing people outside there with the name of GHANA. These is my country and I have no reason to denied it that from here. So it is good to be honest from the start because honesty that will make people know you more and trust you. I am a single woman with no children, But I have been into a relationship before with a guy whom I trusted with my heart and love, But you know some guys really don’t get satisfy they want so much more, And I can’t put up with someone like that so i broke up with him even though i was hurt. I need and want a man who really understand the needs and want of a woman. Someone who is caring and understanding, Someone who i can have shower with Mmm I do miss that lol, Also cook with him and do everything together, Am 32YRS old, Hope my age wont scare you away, I don’t care about the age neither as long as you believe in love and have so much love to share with me then I am really interested in that. I know older people have so much love and understands what love is. Love is a beautiful thing to share when you find someone special. I will love to be that woman who will be your best friend and lover like DON WILLIAMS says in his song. I want to be that woman who you will always love to come home to meet. And that woman who will make you happy always. I am from a good christian home with good moral values. if you are interested contact me maureenjones362@yahoo.com

I consider myself to be an easy going, fun loving, caring and honest person.I believe in being committed to a relationship. I like many things and I am fairly open to trying something new. I would like to meet someone who shares my interests, (not necessarily all, but at least some of them) honest, easy going, fun loving and caring. I would like to be committed to a relationship with the right person,who would like to get to know me for who I am inside. I am very open minded about “the man of my dreams,age,circumstances, distance are NOT important,you could be 25 or 55, live next door or 3000 miles away, a waitress or a millionaire…it makes no difference… I’ll know you are

Curiosity rules my mind, most of the time :-)!! I am blessed!! Are you?? I am a fun loving person, who has most of it together(no living soul is perfect)! What is not complete now, will eventually be. Just like to enjoy life and all it has to offer. I work hard, so I definitely must play hard. A little about me, I’m a down to earth/”keep type person. Drama-free because stress takes years off the life span (although I have to admit drama tends to pop up every blue moon, but how often is the moon truly blue?). I am a calm, humorous, intelligent, goal-oriented, no game playing, outgoing, giving, level headed woman, whom is sexy with class!! Of course that’s just a little something about me, there’s more to this Lady. I am not on the hunt for love, but the journey is interesting! Just simply waiting on the love of my life!! Are you him?

I do not expect a man to be a servant to me, spending all his time working and and cleaning; I believe there is give and take in a relationship, and I realize that at times it’s more convenient for me to do laundry, cook, clean, and I have no problem doing that.

I believe that time spent apart helps keep things fresh in a relationship and makes the time we DO spend together even better. I’m not one who cheats in a relationship; one man is enough trouble ; I don’t have the time or energy to juggle 2, 3, or 4 at the same time – hahahahaha.

I am generally an optimistic person with a good sense of humor, easy-going and I don’t think that am critical about things, but I also believe that it takes two people contributing to a relationship to make it work.
As I mentioned earlier, I like to do things with the other significant person in my life, but I also encourage him to go out and spend time with friends and pursue his own interests and hobbies as well.

I want you to please express yourself freely to me and do not hesitate to ask me any question that will help you know me or clear any doubt in your mind about me. I am not a perfect person and do draw my attention when I do something that offends you. Besides communication is a key part of us getting to know each and most importantly it takes two to Tango.

Love
Joline
