If you read the article, it is understandable how the woman mentioned fell for it. She got an actual letter, addressed to her husband who had died a few years earlier, asking why he hadn't contacted them for such a long time about "his investment".
In Nigeria, they paid for her hotel, and she was first taken to the office of the guy pretending to be a lawyer, then to a building seemingly belonging to the National Bank.
Never underestimate scammers
(and never do business with Nigerians)
