General Just got this email...Seem legit?

Mrs. Mariam Husameddine,

I again thank you for your courteous email and noble goals. I offer my condolences on your husbands passing. Inshallah.
So that we may proceed, let us begin by syncronizing code words so you can I can always verify one another in the future. I fear spies are afoot.

Code word #1 Rusty
Code word #2 Trombone

If I send you Code word #1 you must reply with Code word #2 so that I know you are safe and not an imposter.



Let us try:

RUSTY


Thank you,
Mikkke

Followup.

Great. Now that we are syncronized, let us get down to business.

1. Please provide a history of your faith and upbringing such that I know the sect I am speaking.

2. What time is it there?

3. When sending large cash transfers, I find it best to send to a false name such that you and I not targeted. What name shall I send to you? I would like to call you Mrs. Blaf on the registrar at the London Bank, but I accept your preference. As you know you cannot accept in your real name or the money will surely be stolen.

4. Such that one will always come after two and three after four.

5. I will be collecting funds from my own account and my church group. I wish to share a photo of you and your hospital. I cannot come up with the funds alone but my prayer group (unit 731) wishes to pool our money for good causes. We have not provided in Indonesia. Please tell us about Indonesia and the hospital and how our group's money will be spent. Please write, "We love you Unit 731" so I may encourage donations. I will show the pictures you send to my group.

6. Where is Indonesia?

7. Are there dogs there?

8. Praise be unto him I am sure that my prayer group can assist in providing ample support to you in your time of need.

9. RUSTY.


Love and always,

Mikey

The goal is to turn this around and get them to send pictures to "bait" you into sending money. Come up with as many ways to get them to provide pictures to you. We will move to holding a sign next.

@Miesha's Taint edited my followup to broach the subject of the sign. When they don't do it, that will become the ask.
