Ahh! It's Fall and the smell of Nigerian bank scams wafts through the crisp air.

Just received - I quiver with an-ti-ci-pation for my loot!

Scam o Rama presents the Lads from Lagos

These people string along Nigerian scammers with outrageously phony names and information (How about trying to get money out of the best friend of Charles Dexter Ward? :D) and, while they have the scammers tied up chasing phony parties, inform various legal agencies about the illegal actions of those they have so skillfully gotten contact information out of…

:smiley:

Is that all? I got one from the South African Minister of Mines!

There was a story about it on the local TV news the other day. They were talking about how some doctors, lawyers and a FEDERAL JUDGE fell for this scam. A FEDERAL JUDGE!?! WTF!?!Which federal judge? I want him/her removed! Either that, or if I ever launder money and get caught, I want them to be my judge… “you see, your honor, I was just trying to help this very wealthy man from Nigeria transfer his fortune…”

I have been having some great fun scamming these people. Have a look at my website at http://www.freewebz.com/afops/scams.html

The best so far is George Kabbah, who is “impressed” with “Elva’s” religious background, and hasn’t yet twigged to the fact that she’s a white nazi bigot.

And you gotta love my cool deliberately-obvious photoshopping of the church.gif. See how the letter C of “Church of White Fire” doesn’t even fit properly across the top?!!

The absolute best of all the scammers I have read though is this guy - http://www.geocities.com/steerp1ke/ - the Lovecraft one is weepingly funny.

Yep, I got one last yesterday - from “REV JACKSON.” When I first saw it, I thought Jesse was spamming me. I’d gotten two others that I forwarded on to the 419 scam investigators. Gotta send this one too.
