When I read this it reminded me of my dealings with some scam attempts from Lagos. I reported details to local FBI office in New Haven CT on two separate occasions. I heard nothing more from them.

Back when I was researching the subject elsewhere on the net, I came across a very funny site that chronicles multiple contacts with the scammers. The ultimate goal being to get a scammer to do something foolish or embarrassing.

I highly recommend reading through some of them for a good laugh!

I scrolled through the correspondence. These guys don't give up easy, do they?

I'm curious as to how Tobi was planning to scam his correspondent in the long run? I've heard that one technique is to empty out the bank account to which the illicit gains are supposedly to be deposited. But what if there are no funds in the account to be cleaned out? Does the scammer require that the mark pay various fees, etc?
