Tell him he can have the 48 MILLION DOLLARS from your Nigerian bank account, if he just sends the $500 clearance fee to the 'barrister at the clearing bank' via western union.

Tell them that he is a wanted international fugitive who is on the FBI's most wanted list and that they should contact the Feds ASAP.

If we ask the hotel manager to inform the employee that he is fired, his plane ticket home cancelled and that the Kenyan police is going to arrest him if he does not pay his hotel bill himself, then he might be slightly miffed.

I believe not. it is sent to multiple people - one of the addresses is the info@ at one of my domain names.

It is just human error.

I was also considering informing them that I refuse to pay and that they shold rent him out as a gimp untill he has paid for his stay.

But with this one I don't get a souvenir.

What to do?

Ask them for picture proof that he is there, so please could they take a photo of the guy with a local girl and send it.

What can your sinister brains cook up?

Ask them to send you one of his finger in the post and when it arrives have it finger printed
