         |
The Nigerian Scam is a particularly insidious
con that is so effective, often the victim won't report the crime fearing
they have been part of an illegal transaction. The most common
target of the crime is business executives and medical/legal
professionals. This con makes millions of dollars each
year.
The con appeals to greed. The victim is asked to assist a Nigerian businessman trying to get millions of dollars into our country. The con artist offers the victim a percentage of all money that is snuck out of the country and deposited into the victim's bank account. The con artist will get to America soon and they can split all the money. If the victim will put up some "good faith" money - say $10,000.00 - the transfers will begin. If you or someone you know receives one of these letters, please call your local law enforcement agency. Please note that the perpetrators of this con are now using e-mail to reach a larger audience of victims.
