Does any one know if there is any way to report emails so they are traced & people are prosecuted, possibly hung, drawn & quarted, Tarred & feathered, and shipped to the corners of Nigera as an example to stop spaming us with such bogus, scandalous email.

Here is a couple of sites that may help in reporting scams in Nigeria below.

If you need more than this check out Yahoo! Groups Romancescams and then go to links.

Yes, I still get those every once in a while. The strangest was an exact copy of the Nigeria email except they had replaced Nigeria with "insert country here" (I think they had meant to write another country name and ended up just sending a "fill in the blanks" email instead)

Yes...I'm also sick of them. If you want to know how to get back at those people, just let me know. I have this uncle in Baswana who runs a successful mining company. He is close to death and a millionaire. I'll ask him to use his money to hire a hitman to take care of those people. I'll need you to be involved. All you have to do is front the .02% that is needed to start the process. If anybody else out there would like to send me money for nothing, send me an email.

YES!!! Send all of these E-mails to: 419.fcd@usss.treas.gov
with the full headers or address block. Click forward on your
email site and in the message part print No Financial Loss.
For your records. And then press the send and it'll go to the people involved.

They're funny the other day I get an email from the "London Police Department" warning me of some scam. But I checked the email address and it was a Yahoo! Account. WHo are they kidding???

I feel bad for all those REAL nigerian princes who have 2 million dollars and are trying to get out of the country, and now can't get anybody to give them their bank account # so they can get their money out of the country and richly reward the stranger who helped them. What are they goin' to do?

I saw that a guy recently told them that he couldnt help them, because he was so busy offering up $150,000 scholarships for sculptures, and placing them in his museums......
A few weeks later, the scammer snet him a BEAUTIFUL wood carving of a commadore computer. He must have spent the better part of two weeks on it.
The guy, of course blew him off. Nice trick.
LOL!

Stop answering them. They will find something better to steal. Hopefully in their own continent.
