I'm goddamn tired of the scams & scammers coming out of Nigeria, isn't there some way to just take the entire country off the internet?

I get Nigerian scammers in my IM's, emails, eBay auctions, Craigs list, WTF is up with this country? And why the hell do they teach them English in HS?

I'm probably jinxing myself, but I have never gotten a 419 message through any channel.

Perhaps just a small nuke in the center of Festac Town:|

"Dear Pliablemoose I am a model on tour talking to AIDs/HIV victims, and I am on tour in London, I will be back in the United States in 2 weeks time....."

Only someone who lacks understanding of social politics and social studies itself would say something this stupid. Clearly, you need to pay attention when reading from an Encyclopedia, because host of this thread is a fool, end of story.

Obviously you're much more informed & aware of the socioeconomic forces that have forced the poor scammers to resort to the internet.

I withdraw from the argument sir, I have obviously been bested.

Pliablemoose begins to open a vein to allow the slow creeping ignoble meaningless death overtake him.

Hey guys, I've just gotten hold of loads of money from a rich family member who just died. Thing is, I can't get at the money from the offshore island I'm on. Could I send it all to one of your accounts so I can get it out from there? I'll give you 10%.

Let me know.

They actually seem to be concentrated in Festac Town in Nigeria, perhaps a limited nuclear strike would work.
