The Nigerian Advance Fee Scam

Image posted by DGfromMTL

The Nigerian Advance Fee Scheme is generally targeted at small and medium sized businesses, as well as charities. This global scam involves the receipt of an unsolicited letter purporting to come from someone who claims to work for the Nigerian Central Bank or from the Nigerian government.

In the letter, a Nigerian claiming to be a senior civil servant will inform the recipient that he is seeking a reputable foreign company into whose account he can deposit funds ranging from $10-$60 million which the Nigerian government overpaid on some procurement contract. ( Edited by DGfromMTL)

This has become pop culture, i wonder how many people actually did this. Pretty funny stuff. I like the Recent Flight of the Concords were there manager actually partook in the scam. Great idea, wish i'd thought of it.
