I just wonder if it might not have been better to just proceed with the bait? I mean, he's collected your (nonexistent)money, after all Laughing

It would have been better to slap him for nondelivery of the package, rather than trying to burn the bait

Hmmm.
Yanno, I reckon he's copied and pasted the wrong link. He meant to give you the tracking site but pasted something he's been looking at already.

An interesting forum that. I go there quite a bit and although the people there claim to be just ordinary Nigerians or ex-pats, it just goes to show how deep the rot and stench of corruption has permeated through their culture and society. The vast majority of them condone the actions of the lads.

People often say that not all Nigerians are scammers. Unfortunately, it does look like the vast majority of Nigerians support and applaud the scammers though.
