I saw something on UK TV about this. A UK journalist went "undercover" to
investigate the scam and almost got the evidence that would probably convict
one of the principals of the operation.
As part of it they showed a UK couple who actually sent 30k gbp to
Nigeria....
You can never underestimate...

Hi Mark,
over the last few years we were getting a lot of such letters here in
Germany from Nigerian people. You won´t believe it, but there are enough
people reacting on that and getting into deep trouble with these guys.
Rgs, Claus.

Betreff: Scam alert -- A letter from Nigeria
Not to imply anyone on this list would be so gullible to fall for this, but
you may know someone who is....
Attached below is an "urgent" letter I recently received. Essentially, it
is requesting that I reveal my bank account numbers to someone in Nigeria,
and in exchange, I can claim my share in millions of dollars.
What's scary is that some suckers will fall for this.
For a good laugh at how blatant this scam is, here's the letter for your
amusement.
