New Nigerian Scam, LOL

[HiTheNameIsBJ]

Apparently this guy goes on match.com, chats women up, says he's wealthy live 2 towns over. He's doing business in Nigeria. His daughter gets sick and he's having a hard time cashing checks yada yada. Sends fake money orders, women deposite them and then wire him money. The money orders are fake. He takes 4500 each time.

Why the hell are people so nieve that they feel the need to send random nigerians money. Really how long have these scams been going on and people still don't know.

It's a basic confidence scam. Basically playing on folks desire to be Loved and accepted.

nigerians probably just sit around and think of tricky ways to scam americans :)

Just wait til people start complaining about "American Scams". We are on the same path Nigeria was on 15 years ago. Lots of smart people who were accustomed to money before the government fucked it all up.

I wonder if there's like think tanks of nigerian's who just hate us, coming up with new scams. I'm going to guess that this one is us based though because of the amount of conversation between the two parties, they didn't mention him having poor language or her being called fine sir.

You almost feel bad for the lady it happened to, but then you realize she's retarded.
