Nigeria? Perhaps he can part-pay with the USD$35 million he has in that trust fund

I was reading up on this scam the other day, Nigeria and certain Asian countries like Indonesia are notorious for ordering high resale value goods, using stolen CC numbers. Some of the things to watch out for...

- generic "I want to buy from you" contact with no mention of a particular product (see above )
- wanting to make part payments with multiple credit cards, or retry with different cards after transactions are declined
- ordering by phone just before close of business
- wanting delivery as quickly as possible with no concern for extra shipping cost
