There is a scam trying to get people trying to sell cars online to send money to nigeria. I have been contacted by these people and send a cashiers check, forged i'm sure, for $10100 and I was told to urgently send him $6000. This person doens't know that I know it's a scam and I would like to do something to make him have a very bad day. If anyone has any ideas then please let me know. Thanks.
 
I would like to do something to hinder their business if possible, maybe take down whatever computer they are using...
 
You should send him a envelope full of blank paper, telling him the money is in it, but make it very difficult for him to get the envelope. Perhaps send it somehwere that he would have to spend a whole day driving too.

Or find out something illegal in his country, but legal here. Send it to him annonimously and warn the authorities that he is expecting it.

I once read about these people in a european country (I can't remember which) that would randomly send americans packages containing marijuana (too low potency to smoke). Of course the people weren't expecting it, but when they signed for the package, they were immediately arrested. Apparently the senders disagreed with american marijuana laws and this was their way to challenge the law. It totally screwed the americans receiving the package and some ended up in jail.

Just a thought.
