I know I'm tired of geting e-mail from a "friend" in Nigeria (or anywhere else) who's only interest is to "help out others" or "help me get rich quick".

These scam's have been going on for many many years......... I've finally found a website where these guys get even with the scammers.

Welcome to the 419 Eater

There's many hours of hilarious reading there in the "letters archive" section. Some of the things they get these scammers to do is absoultely hilarious!

 

I guess I need to share more things with you guys (and gals). That website has gotten me through many a long wednesday at work.

Fantastic reads. I guess I will start to share some more OT stuff.

 

My nephew's wife's father got caught up in the Nigerian scheme. He got so deep into it that he went out and bought a new Corvette and quit his job of 20+ years thinking that he was just weeks away from being rich. He quit his job in December of 08, and in January of 09 blew his brains out inside of his new Corvette. I wish I had known that he was getting sucked into this before it was too late. I can't believe that people still fall for this crap. I wish that there was a way to catch these bastards and torture them into a slow and painful death. They are the worst scum on the earth. Oh, and he had a grandchild born the day after he killed himself. Sooo sad.

 

WOW........

 

I know.... Right! When I got the news, I could not believe it. You just never think that in todays web centric society, that you would know someone close to you that could possibly fall for something like that. It does happen, and it will change your perspective on the damage that these leeches on society can actually cause.

 

Unbelievable! So sorry for the loss. I've never heard of anyone falling for the scam but it must happen more than we realize or they wouldn't keep trying it.
