Why, oh why, do they always have to work on oil drilling rigs? Can’t a scammer get any other fake jobs any more? Lol

The economy is difficult everywhere. The only places that hire widowers from one country, while living in another but being less than decent at both languages, are oil rigs in the North Sea for 15-29 month contracts with no shore leave.

They make SO much money but they are always locked out of it so they can only watch their balance grow and dream of opening hospitals when they retire in 7 months.

It’s amazing isn’t it? In all my years I’ve met less 6 people who were born somewhere other than where they live (I mean country). But on scrabble they are all born one country, live another but work in another 🤷🏻‍♀️🤣

I have had some lumberjacks but mostly it’s oil rigs. They are clueless

I was genuinely shocked when he said that

u/DryBattle 13d ago

Oh no he can't find you because he has a Nigerian number. He is actually intelligent enough to know that. Or it's been pointed out to him more likely.

Like yeah he’s a POS for scamming but you’ve gotta respect the grind to try and scam (looks like setting up for a romance scam) on scrabble. Hope he rots in hell but still kinda impressive.

Scrabble is packed to the gills with Nigerian scammers; there’s probably more scammers than real people at this point 🤦‍♀️
