associates. That I should seek for a foreign partner in a country of my
choice where I will transfer this money and use it for investment
purpose such as real estate or hotel management.

That is true Ivox3... however nobody falls for the scam so it should be called spam by now ;)


the only good thing about it, is that they have to give me a valid e-mail address so I can contact them back.... so, any ideas on how to spam them??

BTW... my parents fell in the Nigerian Scam without trying... My mom has a wedding company, and a person contact her to reserve a date and pay for a wedding package.

So my mom sent them some info about our packages and stuff. Not too long after, they mentioned her that they live in Nigeria and that they were planning to get marry in US and that they wanted my moms Bank account.

My mom stop answering them, and a few months later she got a phone from an outstate bank saying that by error they received a false check from our Nigerian friends. Neither to say we told them that they could keep the checks :lol:

I think what happen was that somebody else fell for the trick, and our Nigerian friends, sent the checks for that person and "ours" to that guy's account.

These guys love to send money... ehh?

I have no clue how a different bank was able to contact us, to let us know, because we never gave them our information :shock:

some guy got a scammer to send him a real gold pepite via UPS as sample for a fake gold mine that he was about to invest in :)..took him about 150 emails ( fake ID's, fake everything) to convince the scammer!

Needs time but can be hilarious i guess ( a guy is answering scammers pretending he is a filthy rich english princess that falls in love with each scammer ;)
