Sounds like he wants to stay in Ghana! for the gold

Quote:

Hello my love,

How are you today? I am ok and hope you are ok and keeping well too.

Brad has also spoken with me about his interest in real estate in Nigeria and asked me what my thoughts were. I told him i have never been to Nigeria and i have never been in the real estate industry before so i couldn't give him any feedback on that. I went ahead and mentioned a gold opportunity in Ghana that i know of. I don't know if he will be interested in investing in gold but i have a friend who has a mine there.

I have never thought of getting into real estate but even if i do, it will be in the UK and not in Africa. I will rather be looking into the gold opportunity but when i am home and done with this project.

Darling, don't worry too much about me ok. I know Aleppo is dangerous so i don't go there these days, I will rather let the soldiers go with a strategy if i have to.

I do miss you very much too my love, I can't wait till i can be with you finally. They say distance makes the heart grows fonder(or at least something like that lol).

I love you very much darling

^I credited him with 2 IQ points....looks like that was 3 too many.

I sent that email to Ms. T with a cc to Bruce. His reply:

Hi Brad,

I am fine thank you my friend. I have had a look at the sites you sent me and it does sound very interesting if the potential is really over 300%.

However, i have never been to Nigeria and i have never been in the real estate industry before so i cannot say anything more about it.

I have a good friend from West Africa who has a gold mine in Ghana. I don't know if you will be interested in gold investment but it's also very promising.

I hope you enjoyed your weekend.

Always,

I would advise telling him that according to the information you have received , the properties look like a sound investment and you will advise me to go through with them.

If he thinks he can sit on his ass in Ghana and let the magas come to him....he can think again.

I like the idea of a gold mine investment, you should ask him for the details.

What's your next move B8er when the money doesn't arrive?

First of all, we have to sort out a minor currency mix up, which meant that $30k was sent instead of £30k, so Ziege is off to the bank this morning to pay the balance. Then he'll probably have to go back to the bank again on Tuesday to ask them why the money hasn't been credited to the other account, and wait a few days while they investigate and contact the UK bank.

Legal mumbo jumbo sent from Ch3tham to lad, the contract doesn't address this that or the other. Hopefully I can keep him looking for documents while you guys line him up.

JC, love that he thought you'd written the above to him Laughing

Sent the following to Brad.

Hi Brad,

I hope you're keeping well and not boozing too much, remember i know what you're like lol

As I mentioned to you I've not really had anything to do with property investments in Nigeria, but I've done some research as promised. It would seem that your friend is right about the possible returns. I've done some networking and spoken to some highflyers in other investment companys who do a lot of business with overseas property and it would appear that Nigeria is the next big place to get into at the moment. So I think that if you're keen to do it then we should go ahead.

However I don't want you to dismiss a gold mining investment either, as you well know gold is always a good holding to have. I'll ask Mr Bruce for more details on that and let you know. I hope you don't mind but I'm going to copy this email to him so he is up to speed, and there's nothing confidential in it.

I really would like to get over to see you sometime soon, it would be good fun and I look forward to the steak dinner you promised. Give my love to Janice when you next see her.

Love and best wishes
Maria

and this to lad.

Hi my love,

Yes I'm doing fine thank you, I've just copied you an email that I sent to Brad, I'm sure he won't mind.

I told him I'd ask you for more details about the gold mine investment, so can you let me have them sometime soon please.

My love I think you should really look at this property investment in Nigeria, after speaking to people in the know, it sounds like too good an opportunity to miss, if you can afford it. I'll certainly be recommending it to some of my other clients.

I know you mentioned property in the UK, but prices are so high here, they're not very good for investments anymore.

It's a good job that I like my work and don't just think of it as 9-5 work lol I like the challenge of finding new and interesting projects.

I miss you like crazy my love and can't wait for everything to be sorted out and you come home

Tee him up, TigerLily. He won't even see when the club swings.

TL..

That is a beaut of an email....Brad will be responding tomorrow.

Posted: Wed Oct 01, 2014 12:36 am

Brad to Maria...cc'd to Bruce.

Quote:

Hi Maria!

I trust you are well today? I've had a very, very busy week so far. It seems like everyone that has some crazy idea for using my money has come calling!

Thank you for your input concerning the land investment in Nigeria. I have some exciting news for you....I am making plans to travel to Abuja myself and look at the property!!
I'm looking forward to it very much. I think I will be going towards the end of October.

Do you think you could possibly come with me to look it over in person? I'm paying of course...plus whatever fee you charge. Don't say no!

Did you ever get any information on Mr. Bruce's gold investment? I thought after we are done in Nigeria, we could go to Ghana and meet with him or whoever he needs us to meet with.

Let me know please!

I take you for that steak dinner in Africa...how does that sound?

Take care dear,

Brad

Has anybody heard from out lad? I've not had an email since 29th Sept, I have sent him a couple of pokes, but nothing so far. I'd be surprised if he's twigged.

I'm almost waiting for a ransom note from ISIL, maybe I shouldn't have mentioned them taking British and American hostages.

Any thoughts?

Posted: Thu Oct 02, 2014 10:51 pm

^Give him a couple more days. I will send him an email as well.

He may be trying to figure out how best to fleece Brad and make sweet love to Maria at the same time in Ghana.

Or vice versa... Shocked

Posted: Thu Oct 02, 2014 10:55 pm

He responded to my 'Excitement' yesterday with more 'Excitement'! He has his Legal Team looking at a few things and wants to meet me....

Posted: Fri Oct 03, 2014 12:33 am

In London, I hope!

Posted: Fri Oct 03, 2014 12:42 am

^At a SH in Abuja Nigeria I hope...

Posted: Fri Oct 03, 2014 3:21 am

Nothing to me since the start of the week when I told him I was sending him the balance of the money. I'll give him a prod today and assume that both payments have arrived since he didn't moan any more.

Posted: Sun Oct 05, 2014 5:43 pm

Still nothing to Maria, I've sent him another couple of emails telling how worried I am about him.

Maybe he got scared at the thought of Maria and Brad going to Ghana, but I can't see why, when there could be plenty of excuses for him not to be there. Surprised

Anyone else heard from him?

Posted: Sun Oct 05, 2014 6:13 pm

Nothing for a couple days now.

Posted: Sun Oct 05, 2014 6:19 pm

I sent him a mail this morning telling him one of the payments had been returned and asking what was going on.

I'll leave him a few days and then tell him that the other one was returned and ask him to sign a declaration that he is breaking our contract and no longer requires my investment.

Posted: Wed Oct 08, 2014 10:56 am

Still nothing here - I'll send him another email later on and add tracking to it to see if he actually opens it.

Posted: Wed Oct 08, 2014 11:10 am

Nothing to me either, I've sent a few very worried emails, but not added tracking because I don't know how to Embarassed

Posted: Wed Oct 08, 2014 2:31 pm

Zip to the shyster-think we scared him off?

Posted: Mon Oct 13, 2014 11:55 am

Yes, I think we've lost him unfortunately, I tried another couple of emails but nothing back.

Shame as I would have liked to see a safari from start to finish, but my char is still an investment advisor so maybe something else will come up that you can all invest in.

Posted: Mon Oct 13, 2014 2:13 pm

I prefer to believe he died a horrible death. Now that would make a kitten smile. Very Happy

Posted: Wed Oct 15, 2014 12:54 pm

^^^^^^I agree, that would be good Very Happy

Posted: Wed Oct 15, 2014 1:04 pm

^^^Perhaps a heart attack when all the promised payments failed to turn up.

The tracked email from a week ago wasn't opened.
