To be honest I think I’m doing a little good in the whole process. It’s said that internet scams are the 3rd largest industry in Nigeria. That’s a ton of unsuspecting law abiding citizens, and who knows how many have been abducted while trying to bring money to these animals.

Their money will be well spent on local charities.

Anyhow, give the spammers hell. Too bad we cant overload their servers and shut them down. Surprised western based hackers haven't tried that yet.
Well thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:p

Med Mech. in 1981 I had a very good year . I had moved to Traverse city and started using one bank there instead of three in the UP and one in Key Largo where I spent winters. I had been getting the regular pre-approved credit card junk and normal other junk mail. But now using one bank ,my average weekly deposits were about 12 to 15 K a week.

Suddenly My junk mail started coming in gold imbossed envolopes, with lots of invitations to financial "seminars" in fancy hotels,pre-approved platium American express cards,letters from well know New York stock brokerage firms etc.(remember this was 1981 money. One day I mentioned this to the agent I had bought my house from , he laughed and said well Bill you touched some magic number and your name goes on a different list that sells for more to better clients .Wonder what kind of mail you get if you deposit a couple million a week...........

I think, awhile back, someone posted here about a funding scam to allegedly manufacture Mercedes W123 bodies in Nigeria, including a pickup truck version!

Happy Motoring, Mark

Med Mech I was in the jewelry business back then and was working 12 hours a day seven days a week.
Was hospitalized several times for exhaustion and not very happy.

Got divorced ,singed a lot of quit claims,took some cash and motorhome and went to Alaska . after two years of interesting movement
(lots of drinking) (worked in an auto shop for a while in my home town in Ohio) I meet my present wife .We moved to FL then here to Oregon.

I took early S.S. and we now live a simple life, and due to a generous inheritance am able to do a little collecting and keep Phil's phone ringing............

Hi william,

I'm not sure if you know exacty why I decided to make this a hobby. I only want to make life miserable for them in my spare time. Hopefully I can save someone from being scammed or worse. To date their are 16 murdered americans that go to Nigeria in hopes of easy money. The state department says there are many more missing. I can imagine most of them are Hyena $hit by now.

I'm semi-retired like yourself just chillin out.

Letter seems too clean to be from a true mugu...could be an anti-scammer scammer, someone who likes to waste a 419 baiters time acting like a mugu guyman (see www.419eater.com )

MedMech, I am in awe. This venture should provide you with weeks of entertainment and all of us will get the spectator's thrill! Thanks!

BTW, the avatar is just stunning.

Look at your score in June:
Great chance of ripping a new one for a scamming pig.

You're probably going to buy a Ferarri.

You're avatar looks like a wet dream come true.

What's next, a 15# bass from your pond?
