I found this site recently, a site maintained by an English chap from Manchester who hunts scammers from the internet. These cheats on the internet swindle innocent people out of MILLIONS of dollars every year and agencies like the FBI cannot touch them. I am referring to scams like "you have won 3 million dollaors on the internet, so can I have your bank details" or similar. If you want to protect yourself from this scums visit http://www.419eater.com/ and at the samt tim have a good seeing how this guy from Manchester England has baited many scammers. He actually manages to cheat the cheaters out of money and then donates the money to charities. Go there. You won't regret it.

"bostonianinmo" - that is a good one but the audio of him with a cammer using voice samples of Arnold Swart.. is my favourite -- "WHO'S YOUR DADDY AND WHAT DOES HE DO ?!
He tricked a scammer out of $500 and donated it to a charity (hw shows the receipt to prove it!". Hilarious.

To my surprise, I "put a curse" on a scammer last week and the guy showed some signs of panic, lol. And I thought my "curse" would be ignored. The worst case I heard of was aold age pensioner scammed out of half of her life savings. SCUMS. The only way is the way of this webmaster in http://www.419eater.com/ but please be careful if you try to scam them yourself. I only put a curse on him (lol) and ran. I leave it to http://www.419eater.com/ to do the professional baiting.

Not only are there thousands of 419 scammers in Nigeria, but they are now in almost every country of the world. I know of the 419eater site, very good site. Also, the Nigerians are all over ebay now. For some time now, they have been doing romance scams on many of the popular dating sites online. There is no dating site that is not safe from these scumbags. There are thousands of Nigerian romance scammers in Lagos, Nigeria and Accra, Ghana. They are also involved in counterfeit postal money orders, fake checks, american travelers express checks, and reshipping scams. They target the older vulnerable lonely middle aged people on dating sites.
We get new scam victims daily that join our group. Many have gotten swindled at match.com and yahoo personals.
Some scammers work in teams and shifts. It is no more than a regular business to them. They laugh in your face and call you stupid. They do not care about you as an individudal; rather, they hate your guts. co moderator of the anti scammers yahoo group.

Yes I have a first hand experience of a similar fraud.
Not me personnally.Two guys here in Kuwait have
received intimation about winning "US LOTTERY"
"US VISA LOTTERY"
some 250,000 US dollers prize amount.
In one case one guy did receive a DD and amount
credited to his account. after he drew a small amount
It appears he got a mail from nigerian embassy to
his banker warning the winner of dire consequences
if he didn't pay back the amount and further that his
name figures in some way to a terrorist listing!
The poor guy is frightened out of his wits.
T he other case,the winner was asked to send 5550US
towards expenses viz court documents,legal papers
etc through western union money transfer.After the
winner complied with this request he got another
request(Through mail and direct phone calls)
to send another 1000 dollers.saying an account
has to be opened in the name of the winner at the
nigerian bank itself after which money can be tranfered to Kwait account of the winner.
The poor winner happens to be a simple cook.
He finds it hard to bear this loss of 550 dollers.
ofcourse he didn't send the other 1000 dollers
requested.
Now I wonder how these criminals can be nabbed.
Further why in every case this has to be connected
nigerian banks?What is the catch?

lots of those profiles from London at the instantaneous are not from London in any respect, also they are Nigerian yet in simple terms thieve %. of ladies people off different relationship internet sites and could also attempt to as you for money. And if the scammers almost had you once with one profile, they are going to shop contacting you with new profiles, all attempting to get your money There are real women people posting profiles on line yet until eventually they arrive to visit you immediately away or you move visit them to confirm if there is any chemistry, then they could be scammers. Flights from the united kingdom to US are low-priced this time of year so there is not any clarification why all people contained in the united kingdom couldn't come visit you or you visit them earlier you spend extra time on line My pal in London met a lady on line who lived in l. a. that he chatted with for months, then planned to spend 3 months in l. a. inclusive of her, wondering he ought to signify. He flew homestead after 3 days because she became so different in individual than she became on line or on the phone, adverse, intense about each and every thing, and so on. So until eventually you may meet in individual, dont get too in contact emotionally as you absolutely set your self up for sadness. So get on a flight to London and visit her, spend time mutually, meet her acquaintances and observe how she lives, then confirm in case you imagine you ought to stay mutually yet any request for money no matter for what reason or how little is continually the signal of a scam. there is not any clarification why all people contained in the united kingdom ought to ask for money from a foreigner, salaries are sturdy, reward are sturdy, healthcare is loose, maximum Starbucks and different cafes have loose internet, flight tickets are in many situations a lot low-cost, there is not any departure tax, and so on.

I've been a fan of this geezer for quite a while now. My favorite is "The Church of the Painted Breast," destined to become a classic!
