Subject: ANTI NIGERIA SCAMS REFUND REF:735474
From: stopscams@efcc-nigeria.org

Greetings,


Please your assistance if fully needed, if you have been scammed before by
some Nigerian internet users that claimed to be an online boyfriend or
girlfriend or online Business associate or eBay buyers/ Sellers, some of
these people claimed to be Americans and these men and women are
Nigerians, we are assuring you that for the past 6 months that we have
started this programme we have sentenced 65 men and 12 women to jail for
their involvement in internet fraud.

However, lets work together to stop internet fraud and to make Nigeria a
fraud free country. Thanks for taking time to read this email and for
further assistance please send an email to antinigeria.scams@gmail.com

Respectfully,

James Adamu
Anti Scams Department

We recover many millions of dollars, if you have been scammed, please to contact us with your bank information so we can return it.

Works like a charm...

Personally, I think people who send money to individuals like this deserve what they get. Of course the scammers deserve to have their heads in a vice attached to an extremely slow turning waterwheel, but if you're stupid and greedy enough to fall for these nigerian scams, you deserve to lose the money.

My two cents, and no, I'm not sending those to you either. :p

It's an old scammer's scam, like those that do phone fraud (often from Canada), to call up a few weeks later claiming to be law enforcement and getting them again.

What's amazing is the number of bookkeepers and such who embezzle hundreds of thousands to send to these goofs.

Wonder how much money I could make running a training session for "those at risk" teaching them how to keep from being a victim...

Entire session would be a single powerpoint page with size 72 font:

DON'T GIVE OUT YOUR BANK INFORMATION ONLINE.

Yes, there are some exceptions to that rule, but for "those at risk", you've got to keep it as simple as possible.
 
Those are scams!!!!

Fiddle sticks I have to go call the bank and Eclipse to put s stop on on my order. Dagnabbit I thought I was about to be rich!
