Tommy part 8. Reward for sticking around 🤗. Drunken bitcoin adventures in Chicago at 2AM, and subway sandwiches

I suffered through another 8 screens worth of boring ridiculous fantasy love bombing, protesting all the while. I've spared you all that, and we return to something a bit more fun. Which always involves consulting with u/MadisonCembre and getting her hilarious ideas. Plus Queen u/delzbr on standby for her great fake receipts! As I piece together a way to perform a bitcoin transfer, we decide that Diane could be involved, along with a Jussie Smollet experience of our own. It is Chicago, after all, and who doesn't eat Subways on the sidewalk at 2AM there? Meanwhile, it's always amazing that these guys, with such limited banking experiences themselves, always think that even old fart Americans have online accounts. I mean, if we learned nothing in our long lives, we know that you go into the local branch and make a day of it! They know your name there, and you can chat them up while the angry line grows behind you. They will even help you order more checks 🤣. Tommy is in full on Squirm mode and it's clear they are "on his neck" to figure out why the money hasn't arrived yet. He easily gets a bitcoin wallet and the Adventure begins! NO SANDWICHES WERE INJURED IN THE MAKING OF THIS BAIT

Tommy part 7. Waiting for the transfer is the worst part. For us too!

He's still a Snooze Fest, but there really is no way to make them interesting while they wait for the transfer. At least he's busy giving presentations about the anticipated new "engine," which a simple googling assured me is NOT part of a BOP, which is essentially a stacked set of multiple valves. Meanwhile, you can feel the mounting pressure from his superiors, as he is mostly focused on the money arrival and wants updates. In spite of the tax filing deadline (which brings back nasty memories of the all-nighters of my first career, before computers existed. We had pencils, forms, huge adding machines and coffee tankers 🤪). They always use feeble love bombing to fill in the wait, and I always respond with total disdain. It interests me that at this phase, they are feeling rich while anticipating their share, and will add in buying you things (with your own money😯). The fantasies are real! I throw in some drugstore shopping/gift buying chum, but he doesn't bite. "What card?" was the best he could do. Hang in, things get more interesting in the next one. The "post-transfer lull" is almost over, and bitcoin is coming next!

Tommy part 6. The post-transfer abuse phase, so boring I pack some laundry!

No worries, there's an IP grab and a nice Chase transfer at the end, courtesy of our Queen u/delzbr. Plus, mass deletions of boring yapping occurred (like on government documents released to the public). But I always start attacking when they think the transfer is done, since THEIR script seems to tell them to be attentive, feign interest, and love bomb during this period. I guess it's so you won't cancel the transfer somehow, and based on their "success," to also groom you for even more asks. Still, they never make any attempt at genuine conversation, and when forced, seem to always bring up skydiving and bucket lists 🙄. At least I got 3 loads of laundry done during this, and learned that I was supposed to be "packing" it which apparently means the whole process. Reminds me of years at the laundomats though. That did feel like a trip to Timbuktu.

Tommy part 5. Invoice received, but I'm just so hard to please!

So he finally sends a photograph (!!!) of an "invoice" sitting on an envelope, near a rental agreement form, all so casual. He must think that makes it seem more legit. Like it just arrived in the mail! It's pretty piss poor and it seems that China doesn't bother with Yuan anymore so no conversions needed. I guess they aren't showing the $10k his attorney paid already. I then set up many roadblocks as I put him through demands to get me a friggin printable PDF. Just cuz I feel like it. I like to imagine his anger as he asks for more help, and has no idea what Adobe is. I finally tell him I'll call the company to get it. After I've put him through all that, I start bitching about the difficulties in sending transfers to China, in the hopes of getting an American bank account. Which wasn't that hard, but unfortunately, it's at Chase and they don't take reports. It's in the name of a Virginia non-registered "company," and the address is just an apartment, so I start demanding the business owner's name for research. Later he gives it to me, and I find a his Facebook page. Nothing else anywhere. In the end, I finally tell him the transfer is on the way, and his relief is palpable. I so wanted to fit Irving into this, but tbh, my brain was still fried by his phone call, and I couldn't find my spot. You get a "feel" for when, and it just wasn't happening for me. Although, I'm at the one month mark with him and still trying today. Meanwhile, Madison has her own plans for him once I'm done, so it will hopefully happen one way or another!

Tommy part 4. The ongoing invoice quest, and a China Guy's company account

I've deleted a bit, but tried to prevent choppiness (as China Guy would call it?). Here we continue the arduous task of obtaining an invoice, which is of course my fetish for documents of any type. He wants to ignore it, but I hold fast, in spite of aggressive shouty caps. He also sends me an account, which has the legit name and address of a real Chinese company. I looked them up and they are a large manufacturer of tires and conveyor belts. I can only assume that someone else was able to open an account at that small local Chinese bank, while using their name. Hey, it's China. Who knows. Meanwhile, the BOP becomes a "fucking machine" so we don't need to drink so much anymore! He resorts to love bombing as a solution but it just doesn't work. Still gonna need that Invoice!

Tommy part 3. Get your liquor ready! You'll need it for many reasons

So this starts with me continuing an Early Reveal, in spite of the Early Ask, because I'm so pissed off. But hilariously, he shakes it off and forges ahead. Which is 💯 percent what this guy is like. Turns out, he's the most arrogant, aggressive and nasty one I've had yet! The video call was enough forever, he screamed his head off, but I stupidly answer his 6th call. He launches right into the grossest sex talk ever, which is LOUD and totally about violent "shoving" and "pounding," and he clearly only sees women in an abusive way. I can't imagine they believe that's the dream for a 70 year old woman, but apparently he thinks it works. By now my brains are fried, but my anger is at explosion level. All I can think about is him doing this shit to vulnerable types. So I'm all in for the torture phase now, and getting payback. Please don't let him say BOP again, though 🥃🥃🥃🥃🥃🥃🤪

Tommy part 2. Trouble with the BOP. I mean the BOP. I said the BOP. Plus horrific video call.

I actually haven't deleted much, as Tommy abhors the script, and only forces in a single post's worth of copy pasta before the crisis occurs. Plus, he must be trained regarding manners, so I try. A fast ask occurs; he needs a new "BOP." I like the name, and he clearly does too, since he will say it as often as possible moving onward. He needs $75k, and although his attorney is giving him $10k (which will never ever be mentioned again), he is going to "trust me" to lend the balance to him. It's very urgent, of course. But I'm gonna need an Invoice before anything else happens. I enjoy that the company sends him a free sample, which is actually a valve (an actual BOP is the size of a bedroom turned sideways, if you look online). Also that he's paying no attention to my questions and tells me the supplier's name is Douglas Complex, a huge oil rig 800 miles from Norway. That's bound to change a few times, but for now, it's all about the Invoice. He already really hates me. Which always makes it more fun when they have to keep pouring it on about their deep love. But the most important part was the part you can't see. He calls me on video, unexpected, and I'm unable to get to another phone to record it. It was a 100% realistic AI clone with the lips even mostly matching the voice, and he was able to do whatever motions I asked, including getting up and walking around. It proved what I recently heard about the "three finger test" not working anymore. He could put a peace sign, then both hands over his face. But, he got super angry during these demands and started yelling at me nonstop, and when I would try to yell back he interrupted and very loudly and aggressively steam rolled me. It was honestly like a very abusive relationship, and if he was actually with me, would have been a beating. Very triggering. Which really really makes me scared for the future, and the submissive older generation women they will be doing this with. His accent wasn't even strong, it was African, but I understood every insult and demand. The most creepy scambaiting thing I've experienced so far 🤐

Tommy part 1. The usual garbage, but twice.

This guy starts out with TWO friend requests, from different fake profiles. I accept both, and he forgets that I'm the same person he's already talking to. Or, he just can't wrap his head around trying to do two scams at once. He talks to Linda on Messenger from BOTH profiles at the same time, and even though she says the exact same things, it just never lands. He's really that stupid! But it's fun to see him scramble when it's time to switch platforms, because he can't figure out why I'm questioning how two different people have the exact same Telegram address? Which I sadly can't accommodate on my single Telegram account. I'm not a friggin HK! But it's okay, I'm getting over an Ortho right now anyway, so I choose oil rig engineer. Later, I get yet another friend request 😂 from the same guy, and I get him on Zangi instead. He never connects the dots. He's certainly ambitious, anyway. But wade through the same old, he will pay off pretty quickly
