No, I didn't think you believed them. I was just talking in general.

THAT would be a conversation worth hearing - lol. Can you image the two of them going back and forth trying to get the other to send money or information. . . lol

A while ago some guy had 15 minutes of fame because he did a great job of scamming the scammers. The story made the round of the internet for a while. I can't find the story because it's been done a number of times. If you want to know how to do it yourself take a look here.

I admitted a guy that had fallen for a variation on the Nigerian Scam. He was crazy and gullible. He'd already dumped $25K into the black hole, and was more than willing to throw more into the kitty.
His parents were terrified that he'd be killed, because apparently they'd been in contact with the FBI to see if there was anything they could do on their son's behalf, and the newest wrinkle involves the scammer getting the victim to travel to some foreign country with no extradition to the US where they kill the victim after taking the last chunk of money. He had his plane ticket booked already.

A woman in the US recently fell victim ( if you can call it that ) to this scam.
She was transferring money there in such large amounts that the State DOJ contacted her that she was in violation of law by doing so and would be prosecuted if she continued. Woman out $400K to 'Nigerian scam' con artists "Investigators with the Oregon Department of Justice initially discovered Spears when they were investigating a different money laundering case. While looking at Western Union money transfers, they noticed someone had wired $144,000 to Nigeria over the course of three short weeks. It got their attention." |
