This is just to help people to get rid of these Nigerian fraud scammers..

---------------------------

" Like many people with publicly visible email addresses, I have gotten dozens and dozens of emails from Nigerians and members of other African nations inviting me to engage in a fantastic opportunity to help them smuggle / embezzle funds from their country.

These emails have become so pervasive that even Google makes mentions them in their webmaster information section: "Reserve the same skepticism for unsolicited email about search engines as you do for "burn fat at night" diet pills or requests to help transfer funds from deposed dictators." (source)

These emails are from groups of con artists who have literally developed a national industry in Nigeria from engaging in a scheme called "advance fee fraud", or 4-1-9 (after the section in the Nigerian criminal code covering such activity). Originally begun in the late 70's as written letters (with roots all the way back to the 1920s!), then later as faxes, now they are almost exclusively perpetrated via email. These letters typically fall into a few broad categories, as seen above. The actual scam scenarios are detailed below.

"....Nigeria is still ranked as one of the most corrupt countries on earth. U.S. citizens lose approximately $2 billion ($2,000 million) a year to Nigerian fraud -- be it credit card fraud, insurance fraud, or 419 scam letters, or counterfeiting," which totals about "two and one-half times the value of our total U.S. exports to Nigeria.""
