Scammers from TN are still at it.

Beware Gents.

Just remember "Send No Money Now" -- Like they used to say on TV, and you'll be OK.

Below is my run in with Mr. Con Artist.

I masked out part of his #.

The caller ID comes back as:

Caller ID WIRELESS CALLER

Provider NEW CINGULAR WIRELESS PCS, LLC - GA

It's most likely a 10$ throw away AT&T go phone.

Just out of morbid curiosity, I wonder what the response would have been if I said "Yes" when he asked if it was because I could not afford to send him any money. Anyone else get that question and say Yes?

Me: You have to see it from my side. I've known you all of 2 hours and you're hitting me up for $. Thats not what houseboy.com is for. Houseboy.com is for employers looking for employees. Not for people looking for and depending on the kindness of others. 11:37 PM

Me: You'd have more luck if you posted an ad on craigslist for someone take you in. Or found a local shelter for people in your situation. Even contact your local pflag chapter, and they'll put you up for awhile. You have to use the right tools for the right job and all of that. 11:38 PM

+1423584xxxx: :( ugh. 1:40 AM

Me: I know its not the answer you were looking for, but you'd have 10,000x better luck doing what I said than hoping some random guy off of HB.com will Western Union you 200$ 1:46 AM

+1423584xxxx: Hello? 2:05 AM

Me: No. I can't do that. 2:11 AM

+1423584xxxx: Is it because you cannot afford it? 2:12 AM

Me: No. Its because I'm not stupid and I'm pretty sure you're a con artist. If you were truly living in your truck, you would have done one of the 3 things I suggested rather than badgering me for money. 2:15 AM
