Wer'e just havin some fun w/this. Besides I'm sure you would know if you had an uncle w/ that much $$$$$$ and not having to horse around on that "pidly little puter your on now" HEE HEE. Like I've said in an earlier post there are no Stupid ??'s, we may just get a little brain dead on ocassion trying to look for the complicated solution instead of the usually easy way out - Andrew

When my company president first received one of these requests a few years ago, we did the "right" thing and forwarded the source to the FBI, Interpol, and a couple of other international investigative and human rights organizations, hoping to at least make possible the apprehension of the individuals who were behind the hoax. Obviously, from this thread (and other common reports), this fraud is still circulating the net, and apparently actually fooling some folks.

The really interesting part of our experience was speaking to both the FBI and Interpol directly... the Nigerian government is actually the sponser of the fraud, so no extredition, nor any punitive activity is likely, since the government both approves and sponsers the activity to begin with. Pretty sorry state of affairs, huh?

Really makes me anxious to donate charitably to those locations in the world.

Here's an interesting way to cash in on it.
