Telephonic offer from First Prime in Tokyo: a certain Duncan Edwards leading me on to invest in 500 shares @ $126,51 via him as broker in Trans Ocean Drilling. Breaking news: this company moving on big merger with Global Sante Fe - put them in control of 50% of world's oil drilling capacity. Morgan Stanley already took up 5 million pre market shares. This afternoon Trans Ocean shareholders' meeting to finalise negotiations. Expected that T O shares will move north in the tune of $200 per share within 90 days. Wants me to place R415 500 in his trust and give me his honest word as professional that I am to make big tax free moolah. Wants to build trust and we can take it from there. Gave me his phone no, fax no, email, and some web sites to check out. Confirming all along that he is not there to rape me but to give me a exclusive opportunity to become a rich man. No problem to get money out of country, they have the ways and means and currency restrictions no problem. I had to cut him off after 20 minutes of his verbal diarrhoea. Should I try this out for once and then bale out? Have to know what you guys think, anyone to club in? - he's to phone me in an hour, because :-) I have to buy time to find ways to release that amount from my fixed deposit.
