Ceptik Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 Very, very old and probably a repost but i got one of those lottery scams today and was following up on their website about these scammers. Check this out. Quite a laugh: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/3887493.stm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irfan_habib Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 My company does a lot of business in Nigeria and we get shedloads of 419 emails and faxes from Nigeria every week. They are normally pretty well written and always amusing to read... I can't believe people still fall for it, I guess like it was said in the news article.. their vision is clouded by greed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobSheffield Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 there was a site a while ago that was dedicated to having a laugh at these scammers that will buy your car, but send a western union transfer for way more than the car is worth - the guy got them saying allsorts! i remember one a while ago, an ebay scammer, where a fella in the US played a scammer along for ages, sent a fake laptop to him, and had a load of people in the area the scammer lived tracking the delivery address....now that would be funny!
