You wouldn’t think folks would fall for this come on— Gee, 25% of 15 million bucks, the easy way. But a couple of years back, I received a call from someone who took the bait and lost 40 grand.
It’s known as the 419 scam. (The number “419″ refers to the article number of the Nigerian Criminal Code dealing with fraud.) They originate in West Africa, typically Nigeria.
