419 Photography

I thought I received a request to take photos for a big job, but I later realized it was a 419 scam. This one was pretty convincing for a bit too, so I give them credit for it.

( Here are the interactions between me and the 419er in question )

In a way, I'm glad that this was a scam, only because the costs for some of the equipment I needed meant I had to take an early investment and I'd have to live with debts to pay again since I'm really not equipped to do a full-scale video setup yet. Still, I'm impressed that they tried to play me out like this. Offering a job on Black Friday may have been an attempt to see if I was really desperate and thus that much more willing to go along with it. Still, this is just another thing to watch out for when you do business on the internet.
