Scam? Nigerian Email Scammers caught on Video! Finally!!!

[YesBrilliant]

Good news for all who receive those emails from scammers asking for appraisals or posing as Princes who lost their fortunes and want us to help them, by sending money of course.

This next friday night on ABC tv, 20/20 (USA and Canada), this program will broadcast a visit the reporters did to Nigeria meeting face to face with those criminals.

Now it is funny, we will see them being caught in their own trap.

The Nigerians say they do that because "Americans" are greedy, they even have video clips dancing, singing and poking fun of the people who were caught by their scams. It is almost a way of life for them, hordes of people gathering in cybercafes to enjoy their hobby...

Now, lot's of people will laugh and it will be not them.

Next friday!

:]

Keep me updated. I want to see and laugh at them! But by us being greedy for acting on figuring out someone stole our money, which isn't the definition of greedy they need some education, aren't they being greedy themselves by stealing the money?

That's a fairly impresive text. :D

I heard there was a song bragging about how easy it is to screw Americans out of millions of dollars. I even heard there was an MTV style video made.

 

[Laughs Galore]

Good enough for them.

I even heard there was an MTV style video made.

Yes, the video clip I mentioned. They sing, laugh and dance in their native costumes/clothes, like if they were the best.

I can hardly wait for that program next friday, I am already laughing ...

:D ...

Did it say anything about them be prosecuted?

I rather see that than their faces...

 

[YesBrilliant]

Did it say anything about them be prosecuted?

Prosecuted? In Nigeria? I don't think so. However, some of them made a surprise visit to the Police Station...

I rather see that than their faces...

You will! And they are not happy!!!

Four days and counting...

Man, you wanna laugh at them goto 419fun.com, a UK site.. The guys there are geniuses at scam baiting.... Telling the scammers to send a picture of themselves holding various messages such as "I love hairy pies".. I have to say it had me in hysterics

 

[YesBrilliant]

Thanks for the site, Badger!

Lots of laughs there!

 

[Badger]

No worries...

I should add, the site contains EXTREMELY STRONG LANGUAGE...

 

[MCDomains]

I just found out two great related pranks, from threads that were closed here at NamePros, so I hope it is ok re-posting them for our enjoyment.

The first is about a Nigerian scammer that tried to "buy" a Mac Powerbook on eBay and got it... well, sort of...

The second in principle has nothing to do with email scams but is exactly how angry I suppose/expect those criminals will get by seeing them on that ABC program next friday...
