Nigerian Email Scams on ABC-20/20 tonight

[imagenious]

A reminder - tonight on ABC

10/9c - intrepid investigative reporter Brian Ross goes "on the hunt" for all the Nigerian kings, princes and other big-sh*ts that have all that "banking" trouble and need help from you and me. Probably not much new to learn, but should provide some pleasure seeing some of them arrested.

Also, at 9/8c - hour-long special on Diane Sawyer visit to North Korea - could be interesting to those that might be interested.

I wish they'd go after and catch the ones responsible for the flood of spam I get every day. The Nigerians wanting to give me money are somewhat entertaining. The spammers who've set up networks of possessed PCs are the ones I'd like to see caught and humiliated.

Decent show. I hadn't realized it was really big business in Nigeria.

And, honestly, I can't identify with any of the victims. Even the "Christian" who thought it was a gift from God. That said, it sounds like not all of these were email scams, but some used other methods as well.

What???!!!! You mean I have been giving these people half my income for nothing?
