You'll be pleased to know they got caught and arrested and had to refund all the money. Even the President of Nigeria who was also pilfering is on the run. as they say you can screw mother nature over but she always gets even. If there is no integrity at the centre of the hub in any organisation, it spreads down the spokes and pollutes the conscioussness of the whole..everytime. Maybe now this will clean up the scams in Nigeriaor a global vote to ban them off the net.
Heres some examples and where to report your scams>

I know.
The one good thing about being a frugal cheap miser is that, no matter how good the sales pitch, they'll eventually get down to telling you how much it will cost.
As SOON as money comes into the picture, my alarm bells go off.
I doubt that'll ever change, no matter how senile I may get.
It's nice when your faults have an upside.

Innocent people, and greedy people.
Some nice people believe everything they're told, especially the elderly. In these cases, you're often told that you'd be 'helping' someone by cashing their cheque, so you hand over your bank details.
Some people are too greedy to think 'It sounds too good to be true'.
