I was sitting at home minding my own business on a Saturday night, when suddenly a request pops up on Skype. Odd. Who is this? I accept the contact request and start chatting.

Fortunately the chat was pretty slow - I actually built an entire website while we were chatting! So although my work was slow it wasn't a complete waste of my time. Was a complete waste of his though!

I start off playing dumb, buttering him up a bit, setting myself up as rich, dumb and naive. That bit is a bit boring, but necessary to get him on the hook. The first silliness starts at around 9:27:14 PM (so skip to there if you want), and gets progressively sillier. Too silly too soon and you lose them. As always, eventually got bored.

[8:59:37 PM] Mark: I have been talking to some of my competitors about buying them out
[8:59:44 PM] Mark: But can't find a company which I think is good enough
[9:00:17 PM] Mark: Most of them are small companies, and they only want $500,000 - $1,000,000 
to sell out. Too small.
[9:00:27 PM] Mark: What's wrong with this skype?
[9:01:11 PM] Mark: My lawyer does the valuations for me. I don't really understand how it 
works. I just trust him.
[9:01:19 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: notting but not on all the time
[9:01:56 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: how many kilos do the companies needs?
[9:02:19 PM] Mark: Well they are marketing companies, I dont know much about gold. But I do 
know its a good business to be in.
[9:02:35 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: i have my good friend his names are DR MARK FAVOUR
[9:04:16 PM] Mark: Ok
[9:04:22 PM] Mark: A Doctor is good
[9:04:34 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: with 1.000.000 dollars you can buy many gold
[9:04:42 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: yes
[9:04:51 PM] Mark: I thought you would need more than $1m?
[9:04:51 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: very good
[9:05:02 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: no
[9:05:12 PM] Mark: Oh that's pretty easy then
[9:05:37 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: 1m is what they will need for the exporting of the gold
[9:05:51 PM] Mark: That sounds cheap?
[9:06:17 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: then after the final assay report the buyer can selle and 
pay the seller
[9:06:27 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: listen
[9:07:01 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: the gold is 23,000 dollars per a kilo
[9:07:31 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: then the seller have 500 kilos
[9:07:42 PM] Mark: Ok
[9:07:53 PM] Mark: What is the minimum? More or less than 500kg?
[9:08:45 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: but the buyer will pay upfront 1.000.000 for the export 
expainses of the gold to the 
buyers country airport or refinery
[9:08:58 PM] Mark: $1,000,000 for expenses?
[9:09:42 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: yes, but it will be dedect from the sellers fund before payment
[9:10:06 PM] Mark: So if I were to spend $1m, how much would go to gold and how much to fees?
[9:10:22 PM] Mark: More than 15% in fees would seem like a lot?
[9:10:46 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: you know you will have to pay for taxes issurance transportation
and legal documents 
from minister of mining
[9:11:08 PM] Mark: Of course
[9:11:37 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: that is not yours
[9:11:51 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: it from the account of the seller
[9:11:55 PM] Mark: Ok
[9:12:48 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: you will dedect the 15% after assay report and pay him the 
balance
[9:13:28 PM] Mark: How much are the fees?
[9:13:53 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: no fees
[9:14:29 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: all the fees will be paid by the seller and ship the gold to 
the buyer
[9:14:44 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: that is what the 15% is for
[9:15:06 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: they can take 15% or 10%
[9:15:29 PM] Mark: Ok
[9:15:54 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: the buyer can come down and see all the action
[9:16:09 PM] Mark: To Benin?
[9:16:43 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: as we always like the buyer to come down so that the buyer 
will see all and confirm it all
[9:16:53 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: yes Benin
[9:16:56 PM] Mark: Ok
[9:17:00 PM] Mark: That makes sense
[9:17:25 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: but if the buyer cannot come because of one thing or other
[9:17:33 PM] Mark: I wonder how much a plane ticket is to benin.... I think business class would 
probably only be $8,000 or 
something.
[9:17:42 PM] Mark: It's the time though
[9:17:46 PM] Mark: Long trip, out of the office
[9:18:42 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: this can only take 4 to 5 working days
[9:18:49 PM] Mark: Hmmmmm
[9:18:53 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: yes
[9:19:01 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: it not hard
[9:19:01 PM] Mark: Is there another option?
[9:19:15 PM] Mark: Perhaps have a lawyer in Benin visit?
[9:19:52 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: buyer can transfer the 15% to the sellers account
[9:20:41 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: then we as the agent will get the money from the seller and 
make all the shipping cost and 
ship the gold by air france
[9:21:40 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: give me your email
[9:22:28 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: i will call DR MARK FAVOUR and get the FCO from him and send 
to you
(remember this - FCO)
[9:22:57 PM] Mark: FCO?
[9:23:03 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: yes
[9:23:04 PM] Mark: Who is Dr Mark Favour?
[9:23:07 PM] Mark: What is an FCO?
[9:23:17 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: the seller
[9:23:26 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: the owner of the gold
[9:23:43 PM] Mark: So does he own the mine? Or a distributor?
[9:23:44 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: he have 2000 kilos in storck
[9:23:55 PM] Mark: Is that all? Can he get more if I want it?
[9:24:05 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: but he can selle 500 kilos to buyer
[9:24:42 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: he own the mine in burkina faso and in ghana
[9:25:01 PM] Mark: Oh I've always wanted to visit Burkina Faso

[11:10:50 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: i was on phone with dr mark favour
[11:11:20 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: he said he has sent the documents with two 
passport copies
[11:11:38 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: am seeing them
Benin passport
This looks legit.

Gold nuggets
There were about 12 photos all kinda variations on this one.

Miners
Not sure if this is cool, scary or sad?

Certificate
I'm convinced

Certificate
I'm sure this would stand up in a court of law. What could possibly go wrong? And why has he been sitting on 2000kg of gold since July 2009?
I've left out a bunch more certificates, Fecal Cleanliness Orders, more gold shots, passports, etc. Pretty boring.
[11:14:04 PM] Mark: You said he'd send me "some gold pics", right?
[11:14:24 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: yes
[11:14:47 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: he sent copies to me too
[11:14:48 PM] Mark: I got photos from him. They are just normal photos. They aren't made of gold.
(I thought this was funny. He missed it totally)
[11:14:52 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: am seeing them
[11:37:32 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: ok
[11:37:43 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: i have seen them all
[11:38:08 PM] Mark: And?
[11:38:39 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: if you can buy the gold contact him and let him know
[11:39:22 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: then you sign the FCO with your copy of passport and send to him 
and copy of the mail to me
[11:39:24 PM] Mark: Did he send the FCO?
[11:39:34 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: yes
[11:39:37 PM] Mark: Ok
[11:39:45 PM] Mark: What form does the gold come in?
[11:39:53 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: you will see it in world
[11:40:14 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: dust and stones
[11:40:20 PM] Mark: Hmmmmm
[11:40:38 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: yes, that is the raw gold
[11:41:04 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: then if you need bars you can ask him if he have in bars?
[11:41:28 PM] Mark: Well I didn't want dust or bars
[11:42:08 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: what do you want?
[11:42:19 PM] Mark: Animal shapes
[11:42:40 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: ok
[11:42:57 PM] Mark: Would prefer giraffes, but I can be flexible.
[11:43:15 PM] Mark: When gold is shaped into animals, I can declare it in customs as novelties and pay less tax
[11:44:11 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: ok

[11:48:00 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: that good
[11:48:09 PM] Mark: Did you see the elephant?
[11:48:18 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: they can do it
[11:48:22 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: yes

[11:51:50 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: is better so you carry the golds with you back
[11:52:06 PM] Mark: DO you think I can take it as carry on luggage on the plane?
(500kg in carry on luggage???)
[11:52:53 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: no
[11:53:13 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: but the same plain can carry you and your gold
[11:53:21 PM] Mark: Why not? 500grams isn't very heavy/
(I'm getting bored and it's getting late, time to start playing. 500kg is now 500grams)
[11:53:39 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: small
[11:53:53 PM] Mark: 500 grams is about the same as a bottle of water
[11:53:54 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: they don,t selle by grams
[11:54:16 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: is not up to one kilo
[11:54:27 PM] Mark: That's right. 500 grams is less than one kilo.
[11:54:30 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: 1000 grams make 1 kilo
[11:54:34 PM] Mark: yes
[11:54:39 PM] Mark: So I only wanted 500 grams.
[11:55:42 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: unless if you can send money to buy if and send to you by DHL
[11:56:03 PM] Mark: How much would 500 grams cost?
[11:56:23 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: 15,000 dollars
[11:56:38 PM] Mark: I haven't got that much.
[11:56:51 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: ok
[11:57:03 PM] Mark: How about 5 grams?
[11:57:10 PM] Mark: IN the shape of an elephant?
[11:57:14 PM] Mark: But it must be called simon
[11:57:39 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: how much do you have?
[11:58:02 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: then i can see how i can help to get it for you
[11:58:03 PM] Mark: $5.83, and 2 boiled lollies, but they are a little dirty. Oh, and a picture of an 
elephant called simon.
[11:58:54 PM] Mark: How much will that get me?
[11:59:09 PM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: 3grams
[12:01:16 AM] Mark: Is that enough to make an elephant?
[12:01:55 AM] Mark: What if we call the Elephant Ezekiel instead of Simon? Would that help?
(I had a brief network connection error, thus delay and repititon, not sure if my last comments made it)
[12:04:26 AM] Mark: Is that enough to make an elephant?
[12:04:32 AM] Mark: 3 grams?
[12:04:45 AM] CARLOS LAW CHAMBERS: no
[12:05:05 AM] Mark: What if we call the Elephant Ezekiel instead of Simon? Would that help?
