We had a long-running contact with a scammer, who from his accent sounded Jamaican. We had just won a large lottery that we hadn’t entered. All we had to do was give him our banking info to receive the money. There would also be some small fees involved in transferring our winnings. He was very entertaining and could just not understand why we were willing to walk away from so much money.

He called us every day for weeks. At one point I told him we had called our local FBI office to report him. To prove he was on the up and up, he put “an FBI agent” on the phone to talk to us. Oddly the agent also had a Jamaican accent. He finally lost interest in us and stopped calling. I did like his accent though.
