They must be going broke again, since they are having to get off their crusty bums and send us these lousy emails again. I have gotten a couple of them. Have you ever thought of responding to them with fictitious information?
There was something in the news here that a cpl folks were busted in Scottsdale who were part of the Nigerian scam......carted off on television in the custody of Sherriff Joe Arpiaos Deputy's ........
You kind of get this desire to send them something like: Name - Kwame Kilpatrick Job - Indicted Mayor of Detroit Income - Too Much Bank Account - Washington Mutual Account Number 0156878973 Routing 027556782
It's not only these sort of emails that have supposedly come out of Nigeria.You even get ones that are supposed to have come from Burkina Faso,the Ivory Coast,Ghana,Sierra Leone,Italy,& Spain. Do what Dan has suggested - click the 'Spam' button in your email folder,& then 'Delete'. It's as bad as those who are doing the fake university degree scam - the spelling & grammar in these emails is just shocking beyond belief. Aidan.
Isa, While it is a old scam,there are still gullible people that get sucked in.I wouldn't dare get involved in that. Aidan.
Aidan wouldn't get you involved in that Nigerian scam, but he will condemn you to hell if you don't go along with his narrow minded form of belief system.
Guys, I posted this as a friggin joke. Figured we were all smart enough to know it's a scam and unfortunately people do still fall for it. BTW I'm still waiting for my money from you all!
Or let's just take away their internet access until the continent can behave. I think by then the internet will be archaic, though. I replied to one of these goofballs a few years ago, and they didn't even have the decency to start scamming me!
Oh the words I can think of for them for that non action! Let's see if these slip by the censors. Big Poopyheads! Dung beetle farmers! Illegitimate children! Wow, that should make them feel bad.
