I never really went for that "constipated schoolgirl" image.

It IS the internet though and I'm positive that somebody, somewhere, out there believes that the above is hot.

Attn: D #######

What is needed at this time is your full contact address and contact telephone number so that we will register the ATM Card with the courier company for onward delivery to your doorstep in 48hrs.

Secondly, the $100 delivery fee and $150 insurance fee total $250 should be made available to us as soon as possible so that it will be forwarded the courier company so you are advised to send the $250 to the below name and details using western union or money gram-

Receiver: Mable Ubah
Address: Lagos-Nigeria
MTCN:
Sender's Name:
Sender's Address:
Text Question: In God
Text Answer: We Trust

We look forward to receive the above mentioned details on your next mail to enable us complete the shipment process.

Regards

Regards
Annie Jones
Customer Services

So my reply is this:

Being anxious to get this process started I have contacted Western Union to remit payment. Western Union, due to new anti-trafficking and anti-terrorism laws, has requested that payment be picked up at one of their payment centers in person.

In order to set up the transfer, I must provide Western Union with the name and photo of the person picking up the payment. Also provide the nearest Western Union location of the person picking up the payment. The rule for the photo is that it must be clear, full face and full body with ears uncovered.

Please advise this information so that this payment may be processed.

First game: Back and forth with the quality of the photo

Playing the webcam pixelated version of "cards against humanity" again over there Val? It is evident that removing the door from one's house certainly invites the odd fetish

Hm I'm dealing with someone with a bit of a temper

Attn: D #####

Such request has nothing to do with the sending of western union unless you are not ready to make the payment i guess otherwise, use money gram and lets forge ahead.

Regards

Annie

My reply:

Regretfully I do not have easy access to moneygram although Western Union service is quite nearby.

It is quite possible that Western Union, who is currently holding this money, is only wishing to verify who and where the payment is going.

Upon receipt of the requested they have noted that they will immediately assign MTCN and release the funds. Please provide name, photo, and location of pickup. OR please provide written documentation (from Western Union) that Western Union office in Lagos will waive the requirement and I will bring it to my location and try to use this document to resolve the delay.
