A Fool & His Money Are Soon Parted
As hard as I try, I just can’t work up any sympathy for the idiots who lose money in the Nigerian bank scheme. This scam has been around for well over at least 15 years because I can remember receiving it in the mail back in my Fremont, CA office. It pops up in my email at least once a week nowadays and looks exactly the same.
There have been countless news stories, including a 60 Minutes piece, on this fraud over the past dozen plus years; so nobody can claim they weren’t warned about it. People stupid enough to fall for this just shouldn’t be trusted with money or with sharp objects.
