Fighting Nigerian Email Scams (funny!)

[suncrafter]

Have you ever gotten one of those Nigerian scams in your email? You know - where they say you won millions in a lottery (or whatever)?
Well the webmaster on this site www.419hell.com/ answers those scam emails and does everything he can think of to mess with the scammer's head and waste their time.


Here is a fake photo ID that one of the scammers sent him...
(I think I could eat a photo with some paper and poop a more convincing ID!)

My favorite comedy podcast, The Awful Show, devoted half of a 3 hour episode to screwing with a Romanian scammer. This guy had tried to scam one of the hosts through Craigs List, and they kept calling him for an hour and a half and messing with him.

Check it out, www.theawfulshow.com. It's episode 134. And yes, it is called the Awful Show for a reason. It is very explicit, but if you lke that kind of humor, then this show is for you.
