The Victim Is As Guilty As The Theif, Huh?

Today’s “Shut ‘Cho Ponk Ass Up” award goes out to Nigerian high commissioner Sunday Olu Agbi. I was reading the news earlier today, and this fool Sunday had the nerve to say that people who fall for those Nigerian e-mail scams are greedy and should be jailed. Granted, folks who fall for those scams are greedy, and I’d also throw “ignorant” in there for good measure. Still, greed and ignorance themselves are not crimes. Stealing money from greedy simpletons however, is.
Apparently, all those e-mail scams have given Nigeria a bad reputation and hurt international business deals. Commissioner Sunday, you know what I think about that? F*CK YOUR COUNTRY’S BUSINESS DEALS! That’s what the f*ck y’all get for letting my damned inbox get flooded with stupid e-mails promising to give me something for nothing. Crack down on the scammers, and maybe, just maybe, people will take y’all seriously again.
Until that day comes, kindly SHUT ‘CHO PONK ASS UP.
Thank you. Goodnight.

i hear you. i still get those things in my email and everything, BUT, this scam’s been going on for more than 5 years now. People havent learned any lessons yet? C’mon… anybody who’s still falling for it now, regardless of all the publicity and everything that these scams have gotten, is just asking to be taken advantage of!

these scammers aren’t being prosecuted as far as I can tell – so whats to stop someone stateside from starting a scam too? we should keep the money “in the family”

some of those emails they send you are downright comedy
*totally off topic*
I saw a youtube clip the other day of one of their “offices” being raided by the police…
HILARITY…those ninjas scattered like roaches…running in all different directions in CHURCH SHOES…slipping and sliding all over the place…had me DYING!
I’ll try to find it. LOL

I won’t say they deserve to be in jail but they deserve what they got if they got ripped off.
On another note, I have to wonder just how involved Nigeria actually is with all of this. Yes, the nation is involved but something tells me they’re just a hop in a long line of bank hops that probably ends up right back to the US or somewhere in Europe. I wouldn’t be surprised if there was someone at some Nigerian bank that facilitates everything which is probably why most of these scams are funneled through mainly this nation.
Folks want to blame Nigeria because they are easy to blame. But, I’m racist and I know white people have something to do with it. I mean, I ain’t that racist. I’m just saying that’s “white” collar crime right there.
