I received an unsolicited email from "Barrister David Owolabi" describing how a Mr. J.K. Campbell (who died in a plane crash) had left millions in an account in Nigeria. He happily notified me that due to a name similarity, I was to inherit these millions.
Just for kicks, I responded to the email but gave my employer's (a lawyer) contact information. He actually called my law office and emailed my boss! He then sent me official looking (obviously computer made) documents stating that I was to get these millions via some sort of diplomat if only I would pay $1300 for notarization fees. (I am a notary public and I guess I haven't been charging enough.) There was even a copy of his passport so I'd know who to send my money to. How nice. He also said he spent his life savings getting these legal documents for me.
Just another typical Nigerial money scam. What a shame that these people continue to damage the reputation of their country and further the disgrace that humanity is sinking itself into. He couldn't even conjugate a verb. How anyone falls for this is beyond me, but I would not be doing my civic duty if I did not take steps to warn the general populace of this ridiculous person. I also filed a complaint with the US Secret Service and Nigerian Economic Crime Commission.

Man, I got the same thing about 25 times now... I, too, played along with the fellow and gave the name of our local Sheriff and the addy of the jail/courthouse... I have an address of where he wants the monies (Western Union)sent. I even get it at my work email....Deparment of Corrections!!!! Unreal. I like to play them for a while, I even went as far as to send the dude blank Word docs claiming to be my Western Union resipts and when he replies and says it was not there, turn=the=table, and I rant of how I sent it and he is lying and ripping me off by telling me it never arrived! My old boss (also an attorney) would have a field day with some of these- and you better believe that people fall for this! You know- the dullest tool in the shed... I can't beleive the amount of scams on this site.
