Hello, I am new to this site. I was recently contacted by, an apparently popular, scammer. Her name used is Nataliya Bojko. Everything she has sent to me is exactly what I have read on this site. I haven't kept much and was tracking her from the beginning of our dialogues as from the start it was obvious something was up just from the way she appeared, popped into, my life. From no where as many members have indicated.
Anyway I played along for a while, one month, just to see where things would go and as expected the money request came. I basically told her, whoever it was, I was aware of the scam and to Fu69 off and go pick on some other naive idiot. I may have vocalized, in print that is, that they were shameful and cancers of the earth. What can I expect to surface? I never sent any money obviously and when requested I sent a bogus picture etc. The entire month of emails were sent to and from a fictional Live.com account with ( I hope ) no links back to me. I opened the account using all fictional profile info. including my location etc. I am from the communication arena and I know someone who is astute and with much effort could trace the link back to my address. Are these people this sophisticated and would they attempt to locate me even though there is nothing to be had.

The most likely thing they'll do is just drop you and concentrate on the other victims they have. Other options may be to try to send you a virus or sign you up for spam. It's highly unlikely they'd waste the time, effort and resources to hunt you down.

What would the purpose of "hunting me down" pose. What, in their opinion, would be gain?

Annoy a scammer enough - and I mean REALLY screw with them - and they threaten to hunt you down and kill you. It's actually seen as a badge of honour among some baiters. But if you just tell them you know it's a scam and give them some abuse, they'll just stop replying to you.

Well I suppose since I'm undercover with Canada's elite I had better update my CO on this one. Amazing what I just stumbled upon. More amazing is that they found me without without any contribution what-so-ever. I've heard of spam/adware/phishing/spyware/malware/trojans etc etc but this puts a new edge to it all. Sometimes you just have to shake your head at the exposure society lives with. Given most people are just bored or lonely and looking for someone/thing to amuse themselves or to find companionship little do they know wolves are out there to take them for everything they have. It doesn't seem to be possible to make it through a day without discovering new forms of scum waiting in the shadows for someone to lose their way home. This world....she's imploding at the seams.
