As I've said before, I've been to Nigeria and have partied at a mansion that was funded by the NIgerian "409 scam"....

People DO fall for it all the time....I saw too many Benzes and Lincoln's in the middle of Africa for it not to be working....

Basically, people who let greed obscure logic.

There are towns in one province of Nigeria that have whole streets full of internet cafes. For ppl that live in cardboard houses to spend all day sending email.
