Seems like the right place to me. Very Happy

It makes me sick when I think how many lives have been ruined by scams like these.

It's difficult to get an accurate tally on how much is lost because most victims probably don't report it, and scammers are probably tight lipped too.

On viewing the last one of those videos, I found this as a related link. A interview with a repentant wish wash Nigerian scammer in America with ABC News...

What the newsmen don't understand is that the Nigerian antifraud squad themselves have just found some victims of their own who they can ask for bribes once the newsmen leave.

And the newsmen lead them right to them, the newsmen did all the hard work, and the antifraud squad have to do is to wait until they sell these scammers their freedom.

And it was so easy to tell that all those documents were fake - none of them had a red seal of truth on them.
