How would this happen? I will use my own mail account from home, as this one belongs to my co-workers. Sincerely, Charles Waggin A new e-mail account is arranged, and off we go... CHARLES (CHUCK) WAGGIN Dear Barrister Smith, This will be the best way to communicate, through my home email account. I was able to access it at work, so you can contact me any time here. Hoping to hear from you soon. Charles Waggin PETER JAMES SMITH Received: from [81.7.47.56] Mon, 23 May 2005 Dear Mr. Charles Waggin, Thank you for your response to my mail . I will like for you to please call me as soon as possible in order that I can further clarify this transaction to you better. My private telephone number is: +44 7040121678. I await your urgent call. Thank you. Peter Smith. PATTY WAGGIN Dear Mr. Peter Smith, I see this mail from you, I assume my husband wrote to you, but he is unavailable to answer at this time. You see, Chuck is away for a few days, but he didn't tell me that he had made your acquaintance. I am uncomfortable with giving out our telephone number while Chuck is not here, but will speak with him about it when he phones me tonight. I hope this is not too inconvenient for you. In the meantime, will you please tell me what is the nature of your business with my husband? Rest assured, we have no secrets from each other, but I can't figure out why he didn't tell me about this. Patricia Waggin He sends this twice, signs the first one "James", then apparently thinks he should amend it a bit... PETER JAMES SMITH Received: from [81.136.191.81] Tue, 24 May 2005 16:38:13 (and again at 16:55:30) Dear Patricia, Thank you for your response on behalf of your husband. As much as I would want to tell you about my business with your husband, I must say it will be rude of me to interfere in your relationship with your husband in anyway by letting you know before he has a chance of doing same himself. In this regards therefore i will have to do th most honourable thing which is for me to wait until you have had a discussion with your husband. Surely there is nothing to hide between the two of us and i am sure he must have forgotten to inform you about our correspondence, that is why you do not know. Thus kindly inform him of my email to him and also let him know that I await his response. Thank and have a good you. God bless you. Best wishes, James PATTY WAGGIN Dear Mr. Smith, When my husband called last evening, and I asked him about you. He told me not to do anything until he had a chance to speak to me in person about your business proposal. I received your mail just a few minutes ago, and was a little perplexed about you signing it "James", but then you answered my question before I even asked it! Apparently you use all your names for business, which I think is very professional. Chuck says he will be home late on Friday, so I will talk about this with him at that time. I must say, I am very curious as to what this is all about! Sincerely, Patricia Waggin PETER JAMES SMITH Received: from [81.136.191.81] Wed, 25 May 2005 Dear Patricia, I must thank you for all your time and the way you have handled correspondence thus far. I know your husband will surely inform you as soon as he arrives. Do take care and have a blessed week. Best regards, Peter J. Smith. A week goes by, then... PETER JAMES SMITH Received: from [81.136.191.81] Wed, 1 Jun 2005 Dear Patricia, I will like to know if your husband is back from his trip now. Kindly let me know as soon as possible. Thank you. Best regards, Peter James Smith. NB: This is my new email address. Kindly respond to this new email address as I am no longer using the old one anymore. CHARLES (CHUCK) WAGGIN Dear Peter James Smith, If this gets to you, it will be only because of pure, dumb luck. You didn't include a "new" email address, so I am guessing that pet_smith123@yahoo.com.uk is your "new" address--which it isn't, as I used it previously to write to you. I see that you address your correspondence to my wife Patricia. Are you trying to strike up a romance with Patty? I assure you, she is one "hot tamale", I can hardly stand being away from her (even to go to work) she certainly get a fellow's blood to boiling, that's for sure!!! What she can do with herself is just amazing. She used to be with the circus as an acrobat, and is so limber, she'll make a guy's head spin! So try to restrain yourself, and keep your thoughts about her to yourself. Do you understand? I just got back from my trip yesterday, and after spending all evening and night with my beautiful wife and her charms, I get up this morning, and find your mail. What's up? Chuck Waggin PETER JAMES SMITH Received: from [81.136.191.81] Thu, 2 Jun 2005 Hey big fellow, I am not trying to hit on your wife or anything of that sort, okay. I only wrote her name because she wrote to me wanting to know what business the two of us had together and she also told me you away on a trip and wont be back till this last weekend. I did not tell her anything about our correspondence and referred her back to you in order that you can inform her if you wish and if you feel it will be wise that you do so in respect to our business. I am not a wife snatcher and will never do such to a friend and business partner. Please do be rest assured about this. My email address had changed and since you were not around all this while , I simply addressed the letter to her . Please do not get the wrong impression about this. I mean you no harm. Kindly ask you wife to inform you of the correspondence I had with her in order that you can better understand my point. i have a wife and will not infringe on another mans property. We are going to be business partners and friends so i can not have anything to do with your wife. Kindly call me as soon as possible in order that i can be rest assured that all is well. Best regards. Patricia gets friendly... PATTY WAGGIN Dear Peter J. Smith, I have a few minutes to write, now that Chuck is busy with his morning duties. When Chuck came home from his trip, he was like a hungry animal! I could scarcely catch my breath, then he was all over me again! I didn't get any sleep that night, let me tell you. I have been thinking about you ever since you wrote to me last week, and having fantasies about you. I do not have much conversation with any men other than Chuck, and being stuck out here almost in the wilderness, and it's just about more than I can take sometimes. I get so lonely. Chuck doesn't like me to talk to any men around here, he has made that perfectly clear. I feel like a prisoner, but I can write emails, and he never knows about it. I have had several wonderful correspondences with fellows I have met on the Internet, but I haven't had the opportunity to meet any of them face-to-face. I hope it will be different with you. (I hope you're not as insatiable as Chuck is, should we ever hook up--I'm still a fairly young woman, but he tires me out when he comes home from one of his trips. I would hope that you are more sexually reserved, being British, and all.) Please write back to me, and let me know how you feel about having a "special friendship" with me. I'll be here checking the email every hour or so, hoping to hear from you. Fondly, Patty Waggin PETER JAMES SMITH Received: from [81.136.191.81] Fri, 3 Jun 2005 Dear Mr. Waggins, I sent you an email yesterday and still have not gotten a response from you yet. What is your decision on this matter? Are you willing to assist me or not. Kindly let me know as soon as possible. Bye now. NB: Call me : +447040121678 CHARLES (CHUCK) WAGGIN Dear Peter James Smith, I have been trying to call you at the number you gave me. All I get is static. Are you sure your phone is working? Have you paid your phone bill? This correspondence by e-mail is much more reliable than your phone. At least I can see in black and white, what you are talking about. When people try to conduct business by phone, too many details get mis-spoken, misunderstood, unsaid, and they get lost in the shuffle. If this is acceptable to you, then maybe we can continue this business of yours. What do you have in mind? My surname is WAGGIN, not WAGGINS. No 'S'. Not Waggins. Waggin. Chuck Waggin Thanks. C. Waggin PETER JAMES SMITH Received: from [81.7.42.53] Sat, 4 Jun 2005 Dear Chuck, Thank you for your response. Alos thank you for the correction. I do not know why you are unable to get through to me. But I suggest that you try this other number that I am about to provide for you : +44 7883767436. Am sure this will work perfectly. I will await your call as soon as possible. Bye now PETER JAMES SMITH Received: from [81.136.191.81] Mon, 6 Jun 2005 Dear Chuck, I sent you an email and have yet to get a response to it. I guess your weekend was fun for you. Kindly reply as soon as possible. Bye now. Best regards, Smith. CHARLES (CHUCK) WAGGIN Dear Mr. Smith, I didn't reply, because I just read my email this morning. We turn off the computers over the weekend, so that we will have no "modern annoyances" to bother us. You should try it--a great way to keep family connections and return to easier and gentler times. It does a lot to keep the stress-level down, and it is so nice and peaceful-- we don't even watch TV! On Saturdays and Sundays, we go on picnics, take long walks, we read books, and have wonderful conversations. (And of course, I do you-know-what with my amazing wife Patty!) I am having the worst time with your telephone system. It stinks, and it doesn't work! I checked with the phone company, and they tell me that long distance charges to your number would cost me about $4/minute, which I am loath to pay. Money doesn't grow on trees, you know! So for the nonce, we will continue corresponding through email, as I said last week, details are easier to keep straight, if you can see them written down. Hope this is OK. Don't forget, don't write on the weekends, I won't see the mails until Monday morning. Thanks, C. Waggin PETER JAMES SMITH Received: from [81.7.47.212] Tue, 7 Jun 2005 Dear Friend, I am quite excited with the prospects of both of us working together as associates at the end of this transaction that we have embarked upon at the moment. Once everything is sorted out and I present you to the Financial firm as the Next of Kin/sole beneficiary of the funds, they will have no option than to hand over the Consignment to you. The true contents of which is the sum of US$18,500,000.00 (Eighteen Million and Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars). This money will be claimed by the Finance Firm, who have been at my neck to produce a next of Kin or beneficiary for a couple of years now. I had held them until this time due to the excuse that the only known family member of the deceased had not yet been located by me. Since they know that the direct family members of the deceased all passed away on that tragic air plane crash they will want to use a clause in the agreement of the deposit to claim the funds. I do not want this to happen. Now this is what I propose that will be done. I shall present you as the only surviving relative of the deceased and thus his sole beneficiary. This will be done by presenting documentation to back it all up. As the deceased lawyer, they will not have any option than to agree. Once this has been accomplished, I shall make arrangement for the consignment to be shipped to you or you can travel down to Europe to personally collect it. All I need now is for you to send to me you complete home address, telephone and fax number and also a copy of your international passport in order that i can prepare the needed documents to back up our claim. Kindly send this immediately so that we can begin this transaction as quickly as possible. Bye now. Smith. "Peter" is getting nervous... PETER JAMES SMITH Received: from [81.7.46.237] Fri, 10 Jun 2005 Did you get my email??? Please do respond as soon as you can. Best regards. CHARLES (CHUCK) WAGGIN Dear Peter James Smith, I am very busy with my employment, so I have just a little time to devote to this project. You said that you would clarify the details and provide documents showing me as next-of-kin, with your next e-mail, which you did not do. I think you might not be as serious about this matter as you say. Please provide the documentation you promised. You mentioned sending them as e-mail attachments. Keep in mind that weekends are spent ONLY with our family and loved ones, no computer, no television, no "modern conveniences" so I would not be ready to respond until Monday next. Thanks, C. Waggin PETER JAMES SMITH Received: from [81.174.162.161] Mon, 13 Jun 2005 Dear Waggin, I hope you are okay and all is cool with you. Kindly look through your previous emails that I have sent to you and you will see an email in which I explained to you the details of the transaction in order that you will better understand what this is all about. Let me know when you have read through the mail. Take care and best regards, Smith. Patty gets friendlier... PATTY WAGGIN Dear Mr. Smith, My husband is working, so I have a little time to write to you. I have been thinking about you since last week, and I have to tell you that I am having some very romantic thoughts about you, have you thought about me, too? I imagine that you are a bit tall, not fat, and quite handsome. Could you send me a picture, so that I can look at your face when I write to you? I told you that I am stuck out here in the middle of nowhere, with so few men to talk to, so I would welcome a conversation with you, do you ever "chat" with women when you are online? I am waiting to hear from you, Peter, I think you and I could be good friends. Fondly, Patty W. PETER JAMES SMITH Received: from [81.174.162.161] Tue, 14 Jun 2005 Dear Mr. Waggin, I sent you an email yesterday and you have yet to respond to it. Kindly do so as soon as you get this email. Thank you. Bye now. Smith. CHARLES (CHUCK) WAGGIN Dear Peter James Smith, Please be good enough to address me by my given name, "Charles", or my nickname "Chuck" -- NOT by my surname, "Waggin" It gives the impression that you think of me as your servant. I don't like that. If anything, YOU asked ME to help you claim some money, and I agreed. This does not mean I work for you, and it certainly doesn't mean that you can address me in that way. I am very upset with you, I found a mail to you, that my wife Patty forgot to delete. What's going on? Are you plotting something with Patty? Are you planning to come here and steal my wife from me? Are you having cyber-sex with Patty? If you expect me to work with you on this business of yours, you'd better stay on the straight and narrow, on the up-and-up!! If I find out that you are up to something with Patty, I promise you it will be very unpleasant for you!!! My address is: Charles Waggin, Hidden Valley Ranch, 48189 S. County Road 17, Romaine, MI 43878 And you better have a good explanation for this monkey-business with my wife Patty. Chuck Waggin PETER JAMES SMITH Received: from [81.174.162.161] Thu, 16 Jun 2005 Dear Chuck, As coutesy demands and as is customary here in the UK, I should address you with your surname which is a sign of respect rather than that of disrespect which you have alluded to in your mail to me. Be that as it may, I will take your advise and address you by your first name which is what you want. Moreoever, since we are partners I shall from henceforth address you by your name. In regards to your wife, I want to state categorically, that I do not have anything to do with your wife and will never for one second consider having anythoughts towards her. i do not know her and do not want to know her except she be introduced to me by you when we eventually meet to share the proceeds of this transaction. I hope you beleive me and take my word as my bond. Kindly give me your telephon number in order that I can call you immediately to speak with you. Bye now and have a lovely day. Best regards, Smith. CHARLES (CHUCK) WAGGIN Peter Smith, Now you don't think my wife is worthy of your consideration? What are you, a girly-man? You don't like women? Let me tell you, if you ever saw her, you would change your mind in a quick hurry, that's for sure! Chuck Waggin PETER JAMES SMITH Received: from [81.139.100.169] Thu, 16 Jun 2005 Dear Chuck, You make me laugh....... My not making a play for your wife does not in anyway make me a gay man. I just dont beleive in going after other peoples wives or girlfriends for that matter. There are alot of women out who are single, so why go for the ones that are attached. Thats definitely not my style man. So can we get back to our business and leave all these distractions behind? Awaiting your response. Bye now. Smith. PETER JAMES SMITH Received: from [81.174.162.161] Tue, 21 Jun 2005 Dear Chuck, Why have you not responded to my mail to you. Kindly respond as soon as you can. Bye now. PATTY WAGGIN Dear Peter Smith, I can't understand why you haven't written to me. Here I sit out in the middle of nowhere, and all I wanted was a friend to write to! Why are you treating me this way, ignoring me? Chuck found a mail I sent to you, and flew off the handle. He accused me of trying some kind of funny business behind his back. He's very jealous, though he knows I have very little contact with any men, he accuses me of having a fling with every man who comes near! I'm seriously considering leaving him, but I know he needs my money. You see, I have quite a bit of my own money, and he has none to speak of--not his fault, of course. He was just unlucky enough to be born into a poor family, but I was born into a very wealthy one. So you see, he is not likely to let me get involved with other men. I met Chuck when I was working as an acrobat in the circus (one of the many jobs my family allowed me to try) My parents are very open minded and wanted to let me experience as much of life as I wanted to. They have enough money so that I was able to do a variety of things before I settled down. Please write back and tell me about yourself. I would love to hear from you. Fondly, Patty Waggin PETER JAMES SMITH Received: from [81.174.162.161] Thu, 23 Jun 2005 Dear Chuck, Kindly call me as soon as possible. Bye now. Smith. Let him stew for a couple of days... CHARLES (CHUCK) WAGGIN Peter, I have been trying to juggle all my responsibilities, and things are getting very complicated. I will not be able to contact you to correspond until next week. Things around here are very busy, and I can't delegate any work--I wish I could, but the general manager has to take control. In the meantime, I will keep your situation in mind, and I will write again when things settle down, maybe Wednesday or Thursday. Chuck PETER JAMES SMITH Received: from [80.3.128.7] Mon, 27 Jun 2005 Dear Chuck, Kindly get in touch with me as soon as you know you can have this transaction done. I will be most grateful for this. Best regards, Smith. CHARLES (CHUCK) WAGGIN Dear Mr. Smith, I found your correspondence in Mr. Waggin's files, and I feel that I must make everyone aware of the tremendous tragedy that has befallen our friend, Charles Waggin. I write this mail today with a great sense of personal loss, as I was honored to be Chuck and Patty's lawyer for nearly 9 years, and they were good friends. It is with heavy heart, that I have to inform you of the death of our friend Chuck. He was beaten severely by gangsters on Wednesday the 29th, and died enroute to the hospital. He suffered many internal injuries, both arms broken, and his nose was bitten off! Extremely gruesome, and a total horror to look at. I had to identify his body, as other family members simply could not bring themselves to view the carnage. Needless to say, he will be cremated this morning. Patty was just so distraught, that I had to stay overnight to comfort her. I must say, she is much better today than yesterday, she says that it is because of my comforting strength and amazing stamina. I will be moving in with her for a while, until we can sort out Chuck's effects, then I will take her into the city, so that she can start a new life. (She has a great deal of family-money of her own, so there will be no worries along that line!) If I can be of any assistance in answering any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at this e-mail address, as it will be in existence for another week or two. I share your grief, as I know you share mine. Yours in mourning, Hugh Jardon PETER JAMES SMITH Received: from [213.123.205.188] Sat, 2 Jul 2005 Am so sorry to hear of his passing. Kindly send my regards to his wife and I hope to speak with her somtime soon or whenever it is conveneint to do that. Thank you for your information. Bye now. PATTY WAGGIN Dear Peter James Smith, Thank you for your words of condolence. Mr. Hugh Jardon has been such a comfort to me in the week since my dear husband was killed. I am barely able to get through the day, but at least I don't cry all day long. When Chuck was murdered, I thought my life had come to an end, too. Little did I know the comfort and support given to me by Hugh would sustain me so well, he has truly been a mountain of strength for me. I just marvel at the man's continuous ministrations to me! As Hugh probably told you, he has moved into my home to be near me, just in case I need him--which turns out to be many times throughout the day and night--he has really helped me get through this trying time. I am amazed that such a handsome man is not married, but that is good for me, I won't have to worry about a jealous wife. Those women can be so dangerous, you know! I don't know if you are aware, but I come from family that has a lot of money, (my parents never liked Chuck, they often told me that as long as I was married to him, he could support me--we'd get no money from them!) so now I will not need your little dead-man account. Really, only $18 million dollars!, just a trivial amount. My own inheritance will be more than 10 times that, and I will live on a very generous trust fund until my parents die, so I have no desire to pursue your little endeavor. I must sign off now, I have an itch that needs to be scratched, and only Hugh Jardon can do it properly. Ta ta... Patty Waggin PETER JAMES SMITH Received: from [80.3.128.7] Thu, 7 Jul 2005 Dear Mrs Waggin, I am really surprised that you can act in such a manner unbecoming of a lady who just lost a dear husband. Well , it goes to show that you never liked your husband. But even at that, you should at least give him a little respect in his death by waiting until he is buried before you have another relationship. I am sure you will find it more rewarding when you act along my line of advice. Once again, I am indeed sorry about your loss. Take care of yourself Best regards, Smith. Even while in mourning, Patty stands up for herself... PATTY WAGGIN Peter James Smith: "...act in such a manner unbecoming of a lady who just lost a dear husband. Well , it goes to show that you never liked your husband. But even at that, you should at least give him a little respect in his death by waiting until he is buried before you have another relationship..." WHO ARE YOU TO PASS JUDGEMENT ON ME? How can you say I never liked my husband? You don't know me. You don't know anything about our marriage, or if we "liked" each other--WE LOVED EACH OTHER! But Chuck is dead, and I realize that my life must go on. Chuck was the kind of man who would not want me to spend months and months, or even weeks and weeks, mourning him, when there is nothing that mourning can do to bring him back to life! At least WE have a realistic view of death--those pitiful people who jump about, crying and wailing and tearing their clothes are just putting on some kind of crazed display. Maybe they think that whoever is a witness to such a silly, loud, and pathetic demonstration will be impressed. Chuck and I were certainly NOT impressed by such goings-on, on that point we absolutely agreed, sir! When one of us dies, the other says good-bye and moves on. And I did not have to wait until we had buried him to start a relationship. Hugh and I are old friends, and feelings between us have always been very deep and meaningful. Chuck was such a mess that the mortuary people couldn't fix him up, and wouldn't recommend an open casket, and they advised me to have him cremated, which I did immediately. So, if you don't mind, I will close this mail and return to my life. I have many little details to clean up, and I must arrange for tomorrow's memorial service for Chuck, maybe just a few hundred of our closest friends. I know Mums and Daddy want to attend, and will arrive soon. They have been toasting Chuck's death since last week. They must have gone through at least 4 cases of Champagne by now. I can only imagine what shape they will be in when their plane lands here tonight! I appreciate your words of condolence, but don't judge me. You don't know me. Patty Waggin PETER JAMES SMITH Received: from [80.3.128.7] Fri, 8 Jul 2005 I am not sitting in judgement over you. Far from it. I am only concerned that you might be going to quick in your state of mind and not really realise the things you are doing. Now that i know that you and the Lawyer have been close friends previously, I can only imagine that both of you have carried on from where you left off while your late husband was alive. My condolences once again. Best regards, Smith. PATTY WAGGIN I am sure that I do not like your implications, and I do not appreciate them at all. You are a rude man. Go away, and bother someone else. I don't need you, and I do not like you. You are mean. Patty Waggin PETER JAMES SMITH Received: from [80.3.128.7] Sat, 9 Jul 2005 DEAR PAT, I AM SORRY YOU FEEL THAT WAY ABOUT ME. BUT I JUST STATED FACTS THE WAY I SAW IT, FROM MY PERSPECTIVE. ONCE AGAIN AM SORRY TO HAVE BOTHERED YOU IN ANYWAY AND MOST ESPECIALLY IN YOUR LOSS OF YOUR HUSBAND. DO TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF. BYE. ...And, to the plaintive sounds of Roy Orbison's "It's Over", thus ends the tale of Chuck and Patty Waggin, a simple married couple. |
