JustGav Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 For some reason I can't believe people get caught by this... http://www.katu.com/news/34292654.html Woman out $400K to 'Nigerian scam' con artists It may seem a little cold hearted but surely people don't expect something for nothing. Why would ANYONE just hand over £20+ million...even for £400k...alarm bells would just go off. greed helped blind Spears to the reality of the situation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamesmark Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 Believe it or not people still are thankful of warnings like this, I in my usual subtle ways said on SXOC that people must be retarded to fall for scams like this and paypal, Ebay, Banking security updates. I got flamed and told some people may not have heard about the scams!!!! I mean come on ffs it does not take a genius to work out if it is a scam or not.
