I've been running a classified ad here on tv trying to sell a pair of men's shoes.

I just got this response:

I will like to buy this item and am ready to pay for the shipping cost

to Nigerian i want to send it to my daughter as a birthday gift and am

so much interested in this item kindly mail me back to know the cost

price for item and shipping and i will have to deposit the money into

Ur account first so send me Ur bank details now.

Whew, sure am glad I found a buyer!

I have three different bank accounts, so I gave him the details on all three to make things easier.

SSSSOOooooooooo, did the 'buyer' deposit the purchase price for your shoes into all three accounts?

anyone who is dumb enough to fall for these scams deserves to lose some money.

tell them to send western union

Just remember they are not 3 rd rate scam artist.

why not provide them some fake account numbers-only to keep them busy

Get a contact to the Investigators on the red shirt funding. Get the banking detail of Thaksin and family and send it to the poor sod.

what makes me laugh, is i'm sure somewhere out there, there is 1 honest nigerian who doesn't understand why its so hard to buy things online and have them shipped home!!! :D

After Nigeria was eliminated from the World Cup the Nigerian goalkeeper personally offered to refund all the expenses of fans who travelled to South Africa. He said he just needs their bank details and pin numbers to complete the transaction.
