Nigerian Bank Scam Backfires

[Durandal7]

OK, we've all gotten the old Nigerian Bank Scam in our inbox. This is hilarious http://www.haxial.com/fraud/mikeaba.html
It shows just how badly it can backfire on you :D

[SPG]

I wonder if anyone went out and hopped around on one leg!

[scem0]

hahahahahah, that was great. What a dumbass!

lol

I read that this scam is actually one of the leading industries in Nigeria.

[scem0]

I wouldn't be that suprised if that was the case... ;)

Hate to say this, but anyone dumb enough to actually partake in such a scheme deserves to get ripped off. It's one thing for someone to rummage through your mail for your credit card number/SSN, but quite another to *voluntarily* give someone else money for a get-rick quick scheme. Glad someone finally gave those frauds a taste of their own medicine!

Is that on the Pacific side of Nebraska, or the Atlantic side?

I need more details before I come look at the property, as I have to wear my banana outfit, and hop & clap in the meantime.

Isn't it kinda funny in a sick way how he was like 'yeah, i had to
kill my wife and flee the country' and the response was like 'yeah,
I understand' basically? Kinda grossly humerous. ;)

Wow, that was a good read - makes me want to go out and do the same thing, almost.

The saddest thing is that they actually do get peoples money. Very sad. Nice to see a little turn about - must have had them both in a bit of a frenzy at one point.

D :D
