Having fun with the Nigerian Scammers

Post by KA9FOX »

I hope you are sitting down, because this is just hilarious!

This guy plays along with the Nigerian scammers and the e-mails they send back and forth are just too funny. Check this one out:

He said that is the first time he played with them, and then there are many more if you go to this guy's home page.

Have fun!

Lord, that's freakin funny!!!!!!!
And they kept coming back for more...
Just mention code 219 to them and you will never hear from them again...but this scam is as old as dirt. I once got a letter from some country in Africa I never heard of. ( before internet ).
It was post marked 8 months pior to it's arrival, and looked like rats had been chewing on it.
Now emails from asia , europe, Austrialia, it never ends............

I've had a couple of emails myself from these simian simpletons. But I guess there must be someone out there equally stupid enough to fall for them, so they keep on trying. I really got a kick out of reading how this gentleman baited and led the coniving fool on...what a hoot! It's kind of like throwing a tiny peanut to an animal at the zoo and watching him go thru incredible antics trying to get the whole bag from you. What a scream! :lol:
