TITLE: I Don't Know About Art But I Know What I Like: The Sequel!
SCAMMER NAME: Alex O. Osamuyi
SCAMMER LOCATION: Lagos, Nigeria
SCAMBAITER: Shiver Metimbers
Alex Osamuyi is your everyday run-of-the-mill "419"
scammer. He contacted me a few weeks ago with the usual "$30
million to deposit into your account, yada yada yada...", but
I replied back to him as Derek Trotter of Trotter's Fine Arts dealership
to say I wasn't interested in his deal. Alex never replied to that
email, but sat back for a week or two to have a think. He had the
smart idea to change his name and his email address and contact
me again claiming to be another Art Foundation offering artwork....
at a price of course.
Is this a first? Do we really have a smart scammer on our hands
at last? I think we all know that answer to that one my friends!

Subject: Your Support Is Needed!!!
OSAMUYI ART WORLD FOUNDATION.
Fine Art, Keeping Memories Alive. Love this tagline Alex,
nice work!
Greetings to whom it may concern.
We are non governmental organisation recide in some parts of Africa
to be precides, "Nigeria". We are into artistic work such
as drawing and painting e.t.c. Our organization name is: OSAMUYI
ART WORLD FOUNDATION. To our best of knowledge, African are people
of historical fact and we strongly believe that history is not just
an history, But still lives and breath today because of the artwork
that we see everyday. A very noble statement Alex.
Our main objectives of setting up this organization is to create
job opportunities for the youths and make them deviate from violent,
fraudulent and criminal acts. In our latest resarch, we found out
that the youths can only be idle when they have nothing doing. But
since our organization set up this foundation of employing perfect
artist into our artworld foundation and giving artistic training
to our youths who hardly take in a square meal a day, most of them
can now afford three square meals a day.
Not relenting, our good art work had made us second to non in Nigeria.
But, without international support, we'll do little or nothing.
For the past few years, we've been doing a lot of good work for
international companies who are into art work as well.
This is how we operate; you send us the sample of the picture you
want us to draw or paint for you or your company, then you'll pay
us some money in advance to multivate (?) our artist.
Then, after finishing your work, we'll either scan it and send it
to you via your e-mail address or we'll ship it to you, through
courier service, depending on how much you or your company are willing
to help us with, to enable us to complete our new site, which is
the most reason why will seek for your help.
Astounding! Almost exactly the way Trotter likes to work.
If you are willing to offer us a job or a donation, which will
go a long way in completing our new site. Please contact us through
this E-mail address: [email protected] or call: +234-802877xxxx.
We'll be glad to recieving a helping hand from you. On behalf of
my board members, thank you very much for your time and understanding.
And must of all, we wish you success in all your endeavours. Thanks
once again and God bless!.
Yours Sincerely,
Alex .O. Osamuyi,
Managing Director,
Osamuyi Art World Foundation.
So as you can see, Derek Trotter has struck it extremely lucky
here. Here's a guy who shares our philosophy word for word. It's
almost as though we have given Alex information about us before.
Spooky!
Derek can't pass on a great opportunity like this, but pay cash
in advance? No, we're not going for that one Alex.
From: Derek Trotter
To: Alex Osamuyi
Date: 4 Oct 2005
Dear Mr. Osamuyi,
Thank you very much for your email, and may I say you are very fortunate
to have contacted me.
My name is Derek Trotter and I am the director of Trotter's Fine
Art Dealership here in the UK. My company do in fact offer scholarships
and donations to young and old artists alike, and we are always
looking for African/Ethnic art to sell or promote here in the UK.
I must say I admire the work you are trying to do, and to help young
artists both financially and spiritually is a very noble cause and
I wish you very much luck with your project.
A little information about my company:
We are dealers in fine art and ethnic art from all over the world
and we supply many business and private customers. We also offer
scholarship donations to aid up and coming new artists who may otherwise
not have the financial means to be able to produce or improve their
work. Our scholarship payments range from between $20,000 and $150,000
depending on the potential of the artist. As we will see soon,
my minimum payment amount is rather flexible!
Let's explain to Alex that there will be no upfront
payments forthcoming:
We would indeed be very interested in helping to sponsor
or send a donation to your artists in return for samples of their
artwork, however we do not under any circumstances pay money in
advance of receiving specimen artwork, this is not our company policy.
Before we are prepared to send any monetary donations, we would
require your artist (or artists) to provide us with a sample of
their work, in the form of some artwork specifically ordered by
us. We supply you with a sample image that your artists must reproduce
in their own hand. On receipt of the artwork we would then consider
a donation or sponsorship equal to the minimum amount of $20,000
depending on the quality of the work.
If you are willing to accept the above conditions then I am sure
my company can help you, if not then I wish you good luck in your
endeavour and I hope you find another benefactor.
Kind regards,
Derek Trotter
Director
Trotters Fine Arts

So, Alex isn't going to get any kind of upfront
payment. Will that deter him? You all know the answer to that!

Good Day,
Mr. Derek.
I must say; thank you first of all. We received the mail you
sent us, and we assure your company the best of African Art. Meanwhile,
we need the sample of the work to be drawn or paint for your company,
so we can get down to business. Our boys are ready to do anything
as it concerns Art Work.
Please, we await the sample of the picture. And mind you, consider
anything well done while your work is in the hands of: Osamuyi Art
World Foundation We don't charge much, but you'll be the one to
decide how much you're going to pay for a start. provided is a good
start.
Mr. Derek, on behalf of my board members, i must say; thank
you very much, and we await your swift reply. May God bless you,
your company and your family. Amen!

OK, now we need to get a sample image sent to Alex.

Dear Mr. Osamuyi,
Ref: 6621211
My apologies for the small delay in replying to you delay, however
we do have a lot of applicants to process and this is causing some
delay in our replies.
Please note the reference number above. This is the reference number
which will be included on any future payments to you as well as
all correspondence. Please ensure you always quote this number on
all future correspondence so that we can deal with your emails more
efficiently.
Please find attached to this email the sample image. Give a copy
of this to your artist to reproduce. Each image we send has been
specially selected to show off various skills of your artists. If
you have more artists willing to submit their work, please let me
know and I will forward some other sample images. Please note the
following rules:
1. The MINIMUM completed picture size must be 14 by 14 inches, however
as long as they are bigger than this they can be any size your artists
prefers.
2. The painting or drawing must be in COLOUR
3. The painting/drawing must be the artists own work by hand and
NOT traced in any way.
Attention to detail is extremely important and will help my board
members to judge the skill of the artists. You will see that the
attached picture has many small details. Ensure your artist is made
aware that he must attempt to capture as much detail as possible.
You may tell your artist that the picture can be painted on any
type of surface, such as paper or canvas. Please bear in mind that
the artwork will have to be shipped to us for inspection before
the donation payment is given, so obviously you must take into consideration
the weight of the artwork so that the shipping cost is not too high
for you.
On receipt of satisfactory artwork we will then judge the skill
level of the artists submission and will reward him/her with a monetary
donation depending of their skill. As mentioned previously, the
minimum donation amount per artist is $20,000 but this can rise
up to $150,000 per artist depending on their skill. Note that my
board members will usually pay higher amounts for paintings rather
than drawings. Donation payments are usually given within 24 hours
of receiving the artwork.
Note that as a precaution, all received artwork is carefully checked
to ensure that the artists have not used methods such as tracing
etc. to create their work. Any artwork that is suspected of being
traced or not true artwork will be rejected
Please note that your shipping charges will also be refunded in
full, however we can only refund shipping charged AFTER we receive
the artwork.
If you have any further questions at all please do not hesitate
to get back in contact with me. Also, please let me know when you
expect to have the artwork ready for shipping.
Kind regards,
Derek Trotter

I enclose the picture for the artist to duplicate. Many of you
will of course recognise the bulk of the picture from the Prince
Joe Eboh scambait, but I have re-edited the picture slightly
to include a new message, and extra pictures have been added which
include a couple of the avatars I use on the 419eater.com forum.
I've also added the word "Eater" to the clock, a picture
of me with a snowman on my knee, and also the logo of the Painted
Breast Church - lets just hope Alex hasn't read The
Tale of The Painted Breast!
Here's the picture I sent to Alex, though I sent him a much
more enlarged version so his artist could capture all the detail:

Mr. Derek.
My boys have already rolled up their sleeves, to make sure you
have the very best of art work in Africa. I and my board members
have already inspected the sample of the picture you sent us.
We do not charge much because we always look forward to receiving
a greater job from all our costumers.
Meanwhile, Mr. Derek, i must asure you that our boys have been
trained over time for this work, and they do no such thing like
TRACED WORK. But, before we emback on any job, our client will have
to tell us how much he/she is willing to pay for a start. Mind you,
it's not a task, you can aswell pay 5% of the money before you can
have a view of our perfected job.
Alex is again trying to screw me for some cash up front, but
that's not something Derek Trotter will even consider.
We raised this idea because we've experience a lot of distrust
lately. But, i'm not saying you're one of those who likes to take
people's sweat for granted. Please, bear with us.
We thank you once again and please, let us know when you're
ready
NOTE: Your work will start as soon as we receive your reply
to this mail, and i promise to inspect and treat your work with
utmost delegency.
Bye for now and have a blissful day ahead..

Mr. Derek, i hope it wasn't an eye opener to you when you read
the mail, i.e when we requested for the advanced payment, was it?
We've experienced a lot of distrust lately that was why we brought
up that idea.
Well, we're proud to letting you know that; You'll be glad you

Thank you for your email.
You can rest assured that should your artist be able to produce
work to an acceptable level that your payment will be forthcoming
within 24 hours of us receiving your work.
Please understand that my company is not in the business of trying
to deceive people, if we did that we would very quickly be out of
business. We have a very valuable reputation to uphold and we would
certainly never do anything that would tarnish such a reputation.
Our customers are mainly very wealthy and influential people, and
we would very quickly lose them if we were to act in an unprofessional
or dishonest manner.
I am glad that you have decided to submit some work to us. Please
can you advise me when you can expect to have the artwork ready

Lest i forget, it was posted through: FEDEX, to the exact address

our address for the payment:
NAMES: SOLOMON ENOFE, WILSON IDOWU.
COUNTRY: NIGERIA
STATE: EDO STATE, BENIN CITY.
Sir, the reason why i gave the two names is because; WESTERN UNION

Sir, we'll be glad to receiving a great donation from you. In addition,
my artists names that did your work Sir, are by the names: Frank

Well, this artwork is being built up to be a small masterpiece.
I wonder if I will think the same when it arrives? I'm certainly
excited after reading such a great write up!
A quick check on the FedEx tracking site does indeed show it
is on the way, and is due to arrive Monday morning.
Monday arrives, and what do you know; the picture arrived by
FedEx as promised. Shipping charge to Alex was US $45 plus whatever
he paid the artist to paint the picture.
Actually it is not a bad effort at all. The picture is painted
into a thick textured paper with a fairly thick layer of paint and
measures approximately 14 by 16 inches.
I'm no art expert (really!) but a fair degree of skill seems
to have gone into creating this picture. Note the digits around
the edges of the painting. I'm no artist so I don't know what they
are for, though I suspect the artist probably drew some kind of
grid underneath the painting to aid positioning etc.

I am happy to inform you that your artwork has been received by
my secretary who contacted me just a few minutes ago. I will be
inspecting it later this afternoon.
Also the good news is that I will not now be needed in Singapore
as one of my assistants will be going in my place so I will be able
to personally attend to your case.
All that remains before we can decide on your donation payment if
for you to complete the attached release and security forms. They
are very simple and you should have no problems completing them.
Once they have been completed, please scan them to a high quality
and return them to my by email attachment. It is important that
the returned scans are large and clear as my board members will
not accept unclear paperwork. Once the forms have been received
we can then move on to your payment.
Please complete sections 1 to 4 yourself. The artist himself is
to complete section 5 "Artist Release Form".
These are standard forms we send out, and some of the questions
are required by law to ensure no funding is given to any kind of
terrorist organisation. The Psychological/Morality test is a simple
test to ensure that if we ever intend to invite you or your artist
over to the UK that you are of sound and stable mind.
As soon as the forms are returned and my board members havae checked
your artwork then your payment will be calculated and sent to you
as soon as possible.

But, i just did all i could. The most confussing aspect of it all
was (3b) of section 3.
In additoin, the section 5 was filled by my senior boy Enofe
Frank only. But, the work was done by a combination of two. And
when i crossed checked what he wrote regarding the form, i could
see some words from his heart. Well, i think you just have to do

amount will be revealed to you later this afternoon, and the payment
will hopefully be made to you later the same day or early tomorrow
morning. I will be meeting with my board members shortly and your
donation amount will be discussed and calculated.
In the meantime I am happy to present you with your Completion
Certificate. Unfortunately the office scanner does not seem to be
