Mr. Barrister John Warosa, or simply John Warosa, is a fictional character, created by an unnamed 419 advanced fee scammer, and later co-opted by YouTuber Atomic Shrimp, and has become infamous in the scambaiting community. His backstory varies, but he is usually portrayed as a barrister, or a hypothetical second scammer, attempting to interrupt an ongoing scam. He was immortalised in song by Eric Castiglia's song "The Soul Called Mr. Barrister John Warosa."
Notably, the spelling of his last name is inconsistent, due to an error on the part of the scammer than originally conceived him, and is spelled both "Barosa" and "Warosa", with the Barosa spelling normally appearing in video titles, and the Warosa spelling appearing in the video itself.

A folk song whose lyrics were written by a 419 scammer whose command of English sucks. Here are the lyrics BTW:
My friend listen to me I don't know what you are doing Infact I have giving you the lawyer who you suppose to contact And I don't really know the reason why you are bringing the issue of the soul called Mr Barrister John Warosa I don't understand your plan here But I have told you to contact Barrister Mohammad Hassan, he is here in UAE He is the only person who will handle this business and without him That means there is no way And I just finished my meeting with him About 2 hours ago, so he is the person And even I can meet with him again Tomorrow morning in his office and I beg you If you really want this business to move forward Just forget any issue or discussion with the soul Called Mr Barrister John Warosa I beg you, I don't want you to discus with me anything about The soul called Mr Barrister John Warosa I beg, don't tell me about him again It's only Barrister Mohammad Hassan That the person who I speak with about this business And no other soul called Barrister and I beg Do not tell me anything about the soul called Mr Barrister John Warosa.
Somehow, Eric Castiglia, the guy who wrote and sang the song, managed to make it sound better than one could ever imagine possible.

Frankly, I'd be surprised if you know "The Soul Called Mr. Barrister John Warosa" without watching Atomic Shrimp's scambating John Warosa episodes. Search it on YT if you don't know. If you can't do that, then clearly you're a small boy.
