I'm the recipient of thousands of these Nigerian scam emails, and normally I just delete them, I was inspired by various web sites like this one:

http://www.geocities.com/a_kerenx/seko.html

I'd like to see what we can get out of Mr. Ibeh. Shoot an email and see if you can get pictures or documents or whatnot out of him.

If someone accomplishes a tryely heroic feat, like getting money or an excellent photo, I'll happily front some sort of prize.

Email text below:

Does it have to be this guy or can we just nail any of the Nigerian money transfer guys? I think I have one of those emails saved somewhere, just in case I felt like trying exactly what you're describing. Plus, we get them at least twice a month over the fax here at work. :)

Whatever. Just so long as you don't cut and paste an existing anti-scam scam from the 'net somewhere.

I'd rather commit seppuku.

Surely any anti-spam scam I could google up and cut/paste could also be googled up by others here and I'd be publicly scorned.

Rest assured that anything I manage to submit will be of my own contrivance.













Though I'm not sure how public scorn would be any different from now...would people start calling me a fat *****, too?

You should just ignore this stuff. The US Embassy along with some from other nations have posted warnings regarding this. This is a kidnapping scam where they attempt to lure you to a foriegn country in an attempt to kidnap you and hold you for a ransom. Any corresponace with these people is considered not only dangerous but ignorant as well.

How could it possibly be considered ignorant if you're aware it's a scam?

Not to be overly cheeky, but stating that it would be ignorant to do something when one is fully aware of the situation is pretty, well, ignorant. It also causes deep suspicion that you're ignorant of the meaning of the word ignorant.

If they kidnap you, you're housed and fed, right?


I might be able to string these guys along for a while before they realize nobody's gonna pay.

I wonder if kidnappers will let you play EQ?


Sheesh, I need a break from work anyway. A kidnapping could be just the ticket to lowering my blood pressure.

Got this one today if anyone's got time on their hands:

FROM SHADAK SHARI


Dear Friend,

First of all I would like to introduce myself to you. My name is
SHADAK SHARI, a merchant in Dubai, in the U.A.E. I have been diagnosed with Esophageal cancer. It has defiled all forms of medical treatment, and right now I have only about a few months to live, according to medical experts.

I have not particularly lived my life so well, as I never really cared for anyone (not even myself) but my business. Though I am very rich, I was never generous, I was always hostile to people and only focused on my business as that was the only thing I cared for. But now I regret all this, as I now know that there is more to life than just wanting to have or make all the money in the world.

I believe when God gives me a second chance to come to this world I would live my life a different way from how I have lived it. Now that God has called me, I have willed and given most of my property and assets to my immediate and extended family members as well as a few close friends.

I want God to be merciful to me and accept my soul so, I have decided to give alms to charity organizations, as I want this to be one of the last good deeds I do on earth. So far, I have distributed money to some charity organizations in the U.A.E, Algeria and Malaysia. Now that my health has deteriorated so badly, I cannot do this myself anymore. I once asked members of my family to close one of my accounts and distribute the money,
which I have there to charity organization in Bulgaria and Pakistan; they refused and kept the money to themselves. Hence, I do not trust them anymore, as they seem not to be contended with what I have left for them.

The last of my money which no one knows of is the huge cash deposit of twenty seven million dollars $27,000,000,that I have with a finance/Security Company abroad. I will want you to help me collect this deposit and dispatched it to charity organizations.

I have set aside 20% for you for your time, efforts and expenses.
Please send a reply through this email address (shadaksh@tiscali.co.uk) with your full contact information for more private and confidential communication.
God be with you.

SHADAK SHARI

All I know about Belgians is that they have good peach beer, and their food is très rich.
