Hello FBI,
I got this yesterday from Billy.
--------------------------------
Stella,
I'm on the run, I'm in trouble over my head.
I was in Mazatlan, on a quiet evening, when I got jumped by two guys waving guns and claiming to be FBI - and they tried to gun me down on the spot! I had no choice. I defended myself. I tried to take cover and some poor shmoe in the shop I ducked into saw my gun, ran out the front and the two guys gunned him down! I had to shoot them both. They were crazy.
Here's where it gets worse; they were carrying FBI ID cards and regulation Sig-Sauer handguns - and a satchel crammed with cash. Now I'm really spooked. Did I just get caught up in some sting operation?
Whatever's happening, I'm not going back to LA. I'm coming to where you are, cupcake, whatever happens. I don't know when, but I'll make it. Thanks to those guys I've got somethng like $70,000. I can find what I need to get to you. Just stay cool where you are.

Dear Stella,
You might be relieved to know that as from yesterday Agent Thomas Smith has been suspended from further duties. It has come to our attention that Mr. Smith was not handling the operation correctly. After he lost two men in Mexico last week, he has become a liability to our company. Normally this would be classified information, but as you have agreed to cooperate with us, we are forced to share this information with you. We urge you not to contact Mr. Smith anymore, whether regarding this case, or any other case. Now that I am covering this particular case, you will negotiate with me.
Smith's files, along with your correspondence, are now in my possession. Therefore I am fully up-to-date with what has been happening, and I deeply sympathize with your situation. Please understand that our organization solely recruits civilians in times of high distress. You are in a position to help us, and we urge you to reconsider this option.
Furthermore, since Smith has managed to make life difficult for you, not to mention scary, we are obliged to offer you a suitable compensation. We can double the reward, and offer you a more advanced protection program. For this you will need to give us your personal details, as previously stated. If you wish to cooperate under terms other than we have stated, then please do not hesitate to tell us how we can compensate your much appreciated assistance.
Lastly I am impelled to ask you how your mental state is. It is extremely important that you are both physically and mentally healthy. If not, we employ some of the best doctors in the world, who we can send to see you. Please note that any medical assistance other than our own shall not be compensated for.
If you find yourself with any other questions, ask me, but please keep in mind that you are on a need-to-know basis, and therefore I might not be able to answer everything.
Awaiting your reply.

Hello Agent Michael Scofield,
I am aware off all this, My names are Ms. Stella Maxwell, I have complied with your agent Smith to help get Doo Sr. but he seem to take it the other way round. I have told him that Doo Sr. will come into Nigeria on Thursday Next week, i told him to send the sum of $3000.00 so i can get an accommodation where i and William Doo can reside and then i get in touch with the FBI to let them know where we are. I belive i can do this and after the deal is done, you compensate me. So just let me know if you are sending the money so i can provide you with information of where to send the money.
I wait to hear from you,
Stella Maxwell.

Stella,
We have reason to believe that Billy has almost completed his business and is about to escape to Africa, so there is not much time to explain this. We need you to realize that even though we can do a lot of things, above and below the surface, there are still things we can NOT do. One of these things is send you $3,000 for accommodation. First of all, the deal is that you get paid after we get Billy. It has been like that FOREVER, and there can be no exceptions. Secondly, can you please specify why you need $3,000? I understand that you might not want to meet William Doo at your personal place of residence, but you can not meet him at a hotel, motel or holiday inn. What will he think when he meets a young lady at an expensive hotel?! That is out of my hands, at least officially. The only way I can get you that kind of money, is in cash, but I'll need more information. I can't come there myself because I have set up a new office here, but I can send someone to help you.
You have not answered all my questions yet either. In order to continue I must know if you are in good health. Also, I must know what you find a suitable reward. It seems you weren't happy about $5,000 - will $10,000 be enough to cover your troubles? If not, please specify what will. When you have answered these questions, we can talk about your other personal details, and our protection program policies.
Please be quick because there is not much time. Thank you for cooperating.
Yours,
M. Scofield

Ms Maxwell,
Like I said, it is possible to get you $3,000, but only in cash. I'll see to it that is sent to an address you provide. But I will have to ask you again to specify exactly what you need it for, in case any personal expenditures must be accounted for later on in further process. We are glad to hear you are in good health, as we had heard before that you were not well.
Thank you very much for your cooperation. It is extremly useful to us.

My dearest Stella,
Thank you so much sweetheart. For all your love and support. It means so much to me, you have no idea.
It's been a while now you haven't hear anything for me. I'm so sorry for it honey, but it's not my fault. It's this bloody shrink (his name's Mr. Shimun Floyd) I'm now dealing with. Weird guy. He said I'm not supposed to have contact with anybody but him, for at least 6 month! He also says I shouldn't go to my work for a while either, as it's for my own good, to cure all the trauma's and stuff. It smells like kind of mind control, if you ask me... He asked about my finances and was very disappointed to find out my bank account was totally empty, but agreed to take care of me as I told him I'd borrow the money.
He also has a make-up, like the girls have, you know, using lipstick, colored eyebrows and stuff. His secretary (is also a man) has a make-up too and is always looking at me while I'm waiting for the sessions. Can you believe that? I checked the law books, and he's -- NOT -- allowed to have this make-up stuff on during his work at all. Do you think I should complain to authorities about it?
As you can just imagine, I feel very uncomfortable lying on his couch with my eyes closed during the sessions. I'm so afraid he'd jump on me or something like that... and besides all that, he cost me a lots of money too. I had to borrow some extra from Shaggy and Dave.
What do you think about this weird shrink dude, my love? I don't trust him at all. He looks like some scary psycho guy from the movies.
I miss you so much!!!
xx
Scooby
P.S. You'll understand I mailed you secretly. I hope my shrink doesn't find out.

Helo Love,
I got your mail, and i am not happy at what i saw. I told you to send the money as fast as possible so i can go get the apartment before your arrival. It wont be easy getting the accommodation after you have arrived, traces will be on you if we wander about looking for an apartment. This is Nigeria you know. Not like the usa. I will advise you go to any Money Gram International Outlet there in Cuba and send the money since there is no Western Union Office there in Cuba.
I wait to read from you as soon as the money has been sent.

Hello
I think it might help if I explain some things to you again.
You want money, and I want to send it to you. However, I can't just send that to you, just like that. I don't have that kind of money myself, and our organization requires a lot more than a demand to cooperate. As you saw when my disrespectful college Smith did what he thought was best. It wasn't, and that got him extremely angry. Do you remember that I said I read through the whole report. That's not only because it's my job, but I also wanted to know what made him so angry. I think you know that Smith found out who you really are. Smith knows that you're name is not Stella Maxwell, and that you don't work as a tailor for the metropolitan police. He knows that you are a fraud, a scammer, and nothing makes him more angry. We're afraid that we might loose him, seeing as he seems to know a lot more about you than he has put in reports. Smith was a different man when he came back from Nigeria, and not only because his men were murdered while he was away. Something snapped.
And now we have to think of a way to solve this problem. You and I. For this reason I need you to tell me why you need $3,000 for accommodation (you can buy 10 houses from that!), and I also need you to fill in that form. That's standard procedure, I'm afraid. You are closer to that money than you think you are, and we're may be closer to cracking the William Doo case that we think we are. And we need that little bit of extra help that you can give us. But if you can't give us that, or won't, for whatever reason, then we can't provide protection for you. Protection that you will need, most certainly from Agent Smith, in the nearby future. Now, if someone else is threatening you, or for another reason you can not do as we ask, then we're asking you to tell us why. After this much cooperation, we can not afford to loose this.
I hope that you can now understand it a bit better.

Stella honey,
The guy who sold me the wifi system must have supplied a dodgy patch. I have to use my old account. Risky, but there's no alternative.
So you're not happy? Deal with it. I don't like being stuck in Cuba, but that's just too bad. I don't understand why you're so all-fired insistent on getting an apartment when you must have accommodation of your own. in Nigeria where we can shack up. Hell, I don't plan on staying in Nigeria, cupcake - first chance we get it's over to England and complete safety.
Anyway, Moneygram's not on either. I checked - they haven't done business in Cuba since September last year.*
I'll be leaving here as soon as I can arrange for all the documents I need. Until then, keep safe, sweetie, and stay away from those three jigaboos, OK?

Listen, last week my shrink Mr. Shimun Floyd had a very weird request. I had to make a list of all people I have contact with and had also to show him your emails, pictures and stuff. He's explicitly forbidden me to do anything with my money without his personal permission. And it goes more strange from here: yesterday I had counseling, I was lying there on his couch - and that's the last thing I remember. This morning I woke up at home, in my own bed!

Hello Michael,
I learnt you are the actor of the movie (Prison Break) you are not for real i can see that. Well i need the money for the accommodation first. At least the sum of $1500.00 might be considered. Otherwise, NO DEAL!

Stella,
So you think I'm the actor now? The movie Prison Break? Do you mean this one from 1938? http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0030625/
Because it is the only movie called Prison Break that I can find, and there is no Michael Scofield playing in it. Are you a bit confused? And even if you are confused, there is a possibility that there is some actor with the same name. Did you know that Agent Smith is called John Smith? Do you know how many John Smiths there are in America?
So now it's $1500, is it? That is better, and I will put in a request to send this money. Tell me which bank to send it to, and keep in mind that the FBI does not cooperate with wire-accounts. How about you make an account using Paypal. www.paypal.com is safe and you will have your money in an instant. And then also please send us back that form, and remember to use capital letters. I have a feeling that we are getting somewhere now, Stella. You're a good girl, sort of.
We have not received any updates about William Doo from you. That was your part of the deal, so if you want the money then tell us where he is, and when he is coming to Nigeria. And has Agent Smith been in contact with you at all? This is also very important.

So, you found out about Michael Scofield (yes he's an actor, and very good one - whom I enjoy working with a lot!) and yet, you are still stupid enough to buy this whole Scooby Doo story. Scooby Doo is a "cartoon character" you idiot! You were taken for a ride dude, for more then a month now. And NO, you're not going to see any money at all. In your dreams only. If you did even half your best to find a decent job (even in Nigeria!), you'd be off this whole scamming business and would definitely have a few bucks in your pocket by now. But no...

Well i got a mail from William Doo today. read below.

Stella,
I think I can get a safe flight out of Cuba in about six days. I paid a small bribe to a pilot who can get me into Angola. From there I can make arrangements to get to Nigeria. To be honest, I'm packing wouldn't stand up against the Kalashnikovs that I've heard that place is awash with.
But this is weird - you're in a squat? A hotshot fashion designer holed up in some dingy hole? Are those three jigs your housemates? Fu*k me - I'd better get there in time!
Keep safe, cupcake, I'm on the way!

I got this today from William Doo for you to be sure that i can do what i have told you. As for the payment of $1500, i advise you send it via western union money transfer before his arrival. Send it to my name: Stella Maxwell and my location is: Lagos - Nigeria. I have not gotten any mail from Smith so far. If you want me to consider this job done, you must send the money not later than Monday. Other wise i will say for the second time that there is NO DEAL!
If you are serious about it, i would advise you dont deal with paypal. deal with western union only. I hope you understand me?
Stella.
