NIGERIANS SINK TO A NEW LOW
We all know that a good percentage of Nigerians spend their days doing dodgy email scams. And who can blame them when it is estimated that American alone chokes up $200 million a year. I one case they even convinced a Brazilian to send $242 million dollars for a ‘new airport’.
I sold a couple of mobiles on Ebay recently and received several emails from Nigerian’s who wanted to order several phones at well over their saleable value. This is an obvious scam where I ship them phones and they pay via some service that doesn’t work or seems like it works and then doesn’t once the phones are shipped. The lowest of these approaches is the one below where they tried to use the recent tragic tsunami disaster in the con.
