Kenyan pattern scamming
dickheads
OK first off I cant stand
scammers they are scum of the earth plying there poison all over
facebook , trying to scam you out of money for so called commercial
fly tying , be warned people these people are just out to get
whatever they can from you and they don't care how they do it , these
idiots have contacted me so I have every right to shame these people
and have a little fun along the way , please people never buy flies from these people even if you do actually manage to get some flies the quality will be awful , buy local buy from shops in your own country who buy from local tiers who actually know what there doing.
here's eddy scumbag scammer
and man of god (apparently)
really you got to laugh here’s
a mail I got from “eddy karori” to my pike flies account on
facebook
“Hey prick (yes he really did
spell pike wrong )Am exporter of fishing from Nairobi Kenya and I
would like to do business with you I can send samples on request”
well
once id stopped pissing myself laughing I decided to play along
“do you tie a fly called a
subbug have you heard of it do you have any pictures of your version
of it”
his
reply
Yes I do tie them subbag(subbag whats a subbag lol) do
you wants it samples or you are ready to give a try order. I can
give a email of my customer in america and she says mine are the
best in the world(better than mine your a legend lol).carolyn nichools.92@facebook,com
my reply
OK how much can you do each fly
for (if i order 100) i will trust you as you look like a very
trustworthy person so a sample wouldn't be needed but can you maybe
send me a picture of one of your subbugs so i know they are the same
thing , i have many customers waiting for subbugs how quickly could
you make them
he sent me this through
facebook
my reply
wow very cool are these your ties if there are id like to order 20 of
each depending on price including shipping , where did you learn to
tie such lovely flies
his reply
Hey pike hope you are well and fine those are my flies its my lord
blessing.I do sell and pack in dozen for one dozen am sell to you
us20dollas per dozen, shiping is on my side.I use world one courer
it takes 3 working a very expensive method but safe my flies are
best in world
my reply
yes yes this sounds perfect , instead of posting them would you
deliver them to my Friend who is a manager at the royal Nairobi
golf club (you know this place) (I just goggled this quite
random)if you need some us dollars in advance for materials i will
mail him and tell him to pay you half in advance the rest will be
paid when you bring the flies to him he is coming to visit me soon
so will bring them to me by hand when can you have them
ready............
his reply

never disapoint you and I keep my words afer them uppayment it will
take 7 day to complet it. How many doznes
When you email your friend @
Royal nairobi club give him my
contact so he that he may call me when ready am mr karori tel no
0713929065
my reply
OK this is good i will take 5 dozen subbugs (each one in the picture)
i will email my Friend Mr Ben Dover at the club and mail you later so
he can get the money to you can you let me know how much you need
please .
His reply
Thank u sir.5 dozen is good 4 a start but I was thinking because this
is hand delivery 10 dozen could be much better but its okay . 5 doz
is 100 us dollas so ben is to give me 50 dollars in kenya money
4500ksh
ooooops the dick got his sums wrong I received 2 messages
I am very sory 4 that sms I had sent they were 5 photos x 5 dozen
put it to 25 dozens x 20 usdolls make it 5oo dollas so you are to
send 250 usdollas into kenya sh22000 thanks
my reply
yes that's fine 250 us dollars when could you make it up to the club
to pick up the cash actually I'm thinking that as I'm going to have
them bought to me by Ben i may be as well doubling the order so
could you handle that that would be 1000 us dollars would you be
able to do this , obviously id give you 500 us dollars up front for
the materials(he must be jumping for joy at this message ha ha ha
ha ha ha )
his reply
That sounds good
And good order 4 a start hope 2 do long term
business, the club is near way home so I can pick it any moment you
tells me, I give you my christian word I will do perfect work
(ahhh hes given me his christian word I feel better now handing over
500 dollors lol)
my reply
my freind ben says i should be careful about handing over money so can
you set my mind at ease , for everything to move forward and to seal
the deal can you please send me a photograph of you holding a subbug
with that days news paper once i see this ill tell ben to contact you
to hand over 500 us dollors cash , im sure this wont be a problem for
a great tier like you to do this for me
his reply
I
will do as u say. But iwas just asking you to give me a chance and
a word of trust. And give u christian word . I will deliver. Or to
make this simple you ask Ben to ask for my identification card or my
passport book to be left with him until I delivery the work its
very easy for him to contact the police and say the holder of this
book has conned me money hope this is the most porpirate way to
work course I can't go any where without my book of indentfication
my reply
hey listen a picture as i said will be fine just to ease my mind ,
once i see that ill get ben to give you the cash probably same day or
the day after
his reply
What about if I could the job without asking the up payment
my reply
hey eddy I'm getting uneasy
about this as i don't ask much and i am going to give you 1000 us
dollars all i ask is a picture i have another guy in Kenya who
mailed me last week maybe he can do it if you don't want the deal
no reply from eddy
so eddy couldn't come up with the goods I've not had a reply from the idiot hes probably trying to tie up a subbug ha ha ha ha ha , but seriously you really are an idiot sending me pictures of my own flies claiming they are yours you really are the biggest fool out there , and you know what you claim to be a man of god and a good Christian well let me tell you fella for these scams your going to be going downstairs to the big hot party with the big red fella with the horns and you bought it all on yourself
My subbugs in production
I'm just really loving making the fried alives just now , there are a very cool looking fly and most defiantly a fish catching machine so here a few I've been tying up the last few days when I've not been laughing at stoopid Kenyans
I also got another mail from a
Nigerian scammer who when I sent him a mail asking if he could do
pike flies , not only did he reply saying this wasn't a problem but he
also included some pictures of his flies which by the way were not
only pictures of my friends flys but pictures of MY flies from my
websites and he actually followed the link in my email signature to
get them I must say I laughed my head of at that one , I sent him a
mail last week saying id like a thousand of each pattern but the must
be ready for dispatch this Friday and id need a photo as proof he had
done them before I sent payment , to this date I've not had a reply
but theres a few days to go , hes probably running round the country
looking for chickens to pluck …...............lol
so eddy couldn't come up with the
goods I've not had a reply from the idiot hes probably trying to tie
up a subbug ha ha ha ha ha , but seriously you really are an idiot
sending me pictures of my own flies claiming they are yours you
really are the biggest fool out there , and you know what you claim
to be a man of god and a good Christian well let me tell you fella
for these scams your going to be going downstairs to the big hot
party with the big red fella with the horns and you bought it all on
yourself
so people here's the deal
1 – never answer these idiots
who send you (I can tie you cheap flies) mails / messages
2 – ask your local shop where
they source there flies
3 – ask a fly tying pal to tie
some up
4 – never buy anything out of
Africa the quality is crap

BACK TO FRIED ALVIE'SI'm just really loving making the fried alives just now , there are a very cool looking fly and most defiantly a fish catching machine so here a few I've been tying up the last few days when I've not been laughing at stoopid Kenyans
sometimes nick over at deercreek send me some bags of scrapings that he would otherwise throw away so i use these scraps to either add flash or bulk up a fly but when you can make a whole fly out of it gives what would go in the bin a whole new lease of life here's a small baitfish i made out of some of these scraps .....cheers nick
