That is funny Mid! Maybe this Indian Scammer finally wised up to the fact the celebrity names weren't working. His next alias may very well be "Capt. Cook"...from the "Defaulters Division of the Internal Revenue Services". The barely bi-pedal sub-human probably got ahold of an old history book left behind by an aid worker. Who knows? Next week he might be "Charles Darwin" & the week after that he might be "Isaac Newton"!
Well, at least it'll be a break from the "Seans", "Johns" & "Davids". I'm still waiting for a Gujarati Scammer trying to call himself "Forrest Whitaker" or "Clark Gable"...
Live Well.

Didn't we have a fake name thread started in the forum a while ago? There were a few classics I remember. Scammers who said they were 'John Carter' (of Mars, no doubt). Then there was 'Alex Ferguson' (former coach of Manchester United. We've had names from music groups. I remember someone using the name of one of 'The Backstreet Boys'. But movies, and TV shows seem to show up the most. I would love the irony if they used names from the TV series 'Law & Order'.
Yeah Badge, I remember a thread like that. It showed the "originality" used by the coaches teaching the Indian 'phone jockeys. The favorite names at the time were "Seans", "Shawns" & names from 70's era Television shows. The Indian Scammers haven't gotten the slightest bit smarter. If anything, they're more stupid now than ever. I think the brighter Indian Scammers have moved on to other pursuits. What we're seeing now are the truly desperate ones still trying to scam using the old methods. They're are thick as a brick & dumb as a stump.
