Unfortunately, people still fall for these scams. If they didn't keep falling for them, the Nigerians would find another way to scam somebody.
The people that are actually sending these scams are getting paid like $1 an hour to send them out by the ones that are robbing Americans of thousands of dollars.

The scheme can't work without enough folks simultaneously rich and stupid ... to give the industry necessary funding. There are plenty of greedy poor folks, sure, but victimizing them is simply not going to bring in the needed cash. Try lottery tickets instead ... win a state governorship or military rank (b.y.o uniform)

Think of it as natural selection in action: The only ones getting scammed are the ones dumb enough to fall for it.

This would be a good question to ask while baiting one of the scammers.
