This is a video I made about how crap this Chinese iPhone knock-off is, as you can see its clearly making fun of it... Today I got this message:

Dear sir

I have seen your videos, I think you are good at selling China cell phones.

I am jack from IT-Kingdom Electronic Co.,Ltd

We can provide China cell phones at a very good price and good service.

If you are interested , pls feel free to contact me.

Jack

Any ideas for replies???

Tell him you are very interested in receiving his phones but you are on vacation and wish to expedite shipment. You will, of course, pay by PayPal.

China cell phones are the most sought-after gift item after Faberge Eggs. Everyone knows this...

Yea, don't forget to tell him your on vacation in Nigeria

Tell him you are away on a business trip in Africa and that you will not be returning home for a further 6 months. You are currently in Africa selling *insert product here* and would love to have 100 phones delivered to *random address in Africa*. You are willing to to pay for all shipping/postage cost.

or just goto 419eater.com for some better ideas

Thank you for your offer, I would like to accept.

However, I am currently on vacation in Nigeria for a month, and as I would like to begin distributing your phones for your business as soon as possible, could you send 100 to 32 Cameroon Road, in Chad.

I will have my associate contact you shortly so we can wire you the payment for the phones.

For this he will, of course, require your bank account number and sort code.

I also have just inherited $20,000,000 and would like to transfer it to your account if all goes well.

This is what I just sent to him

419 Eater looks amusing, I am looking through now!

Remember P-P-PowerBook, anyone? http://www.zug.com/pranks/powerbook/ thats very funny!

Heh, my cousin had a stock of them he had to shift. Horrible things they were.

So is he offering you these phones for cheap or for free? I wouldn't go near him with a bargepole to be honest.

I agree, I used two different ones and they suck.

Cheaply, and the title of the message is "business partners" so I guess he wants me to act like a dealer.

I hope to have a bit of fun at his expense

dear sir,

thanks for you reply.

If you want to buy cell phones, our payments term: we send the phones out after payments finish

Jack

Any ideas for a further reply?
