We all know about the Nigerian scams, right? And we all wonder, how people can still fall for it, despite all the warnings, and the experiences shared by others. The Register provides a great piece of work, really outlining how a story in the UK evolved. Together with the e-mails that were exchanged. A bit lengthy, but worthwhile the read.
Well, it is a real life experience and somehow, the guy didn't loose too much money. There are other stories where people lost all their life savings, and some even their life in Nigeria.
