Best way to tackle Nigerian email scammers
I just finished reading the best email exchange ever! Some guy who is in charge of handling the will of the King of Nigeria (or something like that) was searching someone to transfer to the Kings fortune (scam) and user 419 Eater, a person who dedicated his life (with success) to scam the scammers.
The story goes as follows: 419 Eater receives an email in which he is informed that they are looking for someone to transfer $40,000,000 and he has to send all his bank details etc (am sure this may sound familiar to most of you out there as these emails are mass send. 419 Eater does not delete this email but sends in return a thank you email and replies that at the moment he is too busy with a new an lucrative project in which if he wants (the Nigerian guy) can participate. This project pays $100 for every original (book) manuscript page!
So the scammer got the bait and what did he do? He copied by hand the entire Harry Potter book!
Read the whole email exchange here (do browse through the entire manuscript), its worth it
