Re: 2.1 million dollar Nigerian Scam
|
I received two letters about five and seven years ago on this. The
letters looked like they were booby trapped. Made out of the same paper
firecrackers are made of. Hard to believe people sent money. Hey that
gives me an idea...

The Nigerian scam letter scheme has been around since the mid-1980s and
originated there.

OK, perhaps I was a tad too optimistic that there was no one stupid enough
to *really* fall for the Nigerian email scam.
I seem to remember reading that the oil scam was Nigeria's second- or
third-largest industry.
