RE: Re: <nettime> Nigerian Scams (was : bomboclat: netstrike |
I have received even more of these after I began to engage a few of the writers in W. Africa by stringing them along, and warning them not to use email to contact me because of my government's ability to track email, monitor cell phone calls, and sent lightening bolts down the phone lines to punish dishonest grifters in developing countries. I also said I would invest but I was waiting for part of my payoff from another generous relative of Mr. Sankoh of Sierra Leone who would be sending me cash very soon. Here's a good site that has collected many of these stories, evidence again of the rich oral tradtion for which West Africa is so famous. www.sierra-leone.org/scams.html Steve Cisler -------------------------------------------------------------------- Mail2Web - Check your email from the web at http://www.mail2web.com/ . # distributed via <nettime>: no commercial use without permission # <nettime> is a moderated mailing list for net criticism, # collaborative text filtering and cultural politics of the nets # more info: majordomo@bbs.thing.net and "info nettime-l" in the msg body # archive: http://www.nettime.org contact: nettime@bbs.thing.net
