Every morning, without fail, I get a series of e-mails from Nigeria offering to share the fortune of a dead government minister/farmer/mine owner/relative with me, if I'll only open a bank account etc.
Only this week, some guy near to here believed the con. and got done for fifty grand.
Most of these are naive, mispelt , ill-reasoned and generally hard to believe.
Maybe, they need the law books to make their emails more convincing, preparatory to an onslaught on the US market!
Somewhere, there's a website where a guy who followed up one of these e-mails, posted - it makes amusing reading!
