Nigerian scam comes in many forms: 419 scam, when they offer to transfer millions of dollars into your bank account, or lottery scam, when they tell you that you've won something in some bogus lottery.

However, Nigerian dating scam (or romance scam), besides just asking for money for their studies, sick relatives, etc.. usually involves this scheme: the scammers upload fake attractive photos, in most cases of white people. They pretend to be the foreign specialists working in Nigeria or Ghana (usually originally from US and UK, but it may also be Canada, Australia or any other European country).

After they establish some lovely correspondence with you, fall in love and maybe even send a couple of cheap presents, they will either:

a) be almost on their way to meet you, but something will happen to them: they will get robbed, beaten, get into the hospital, or other misfortune will happen and of course you will be their only contact to ask for financial help, or:

b) tell you that their employer pays them with Money Orders, and they can't cash them in Nigeria. They will send you the Money Orders and ask you to deposit them into your bank account and then wire the money to them via Western Union. Usually they say to keep some money for your trouble. Needless to say, those Money Orders are no good, and not even worth the paper they're printed on. If you cash them or deposit them into your account, Money Orders will come back after few weeks as fraudulent and you will be responsible for paying back the money to the bank and sometimes even charged for passing counterfeit instrument.

There is also a re-shipping scam, when they will ask you to re-ship goods for them. These goods are purchased with stolen credit cards. Never re-ship anything for strangers, especially to Africa. There is a reason why online merchants usually don't ship there.

There are also military scams (for God Sake, there are NO American Generals browsing dating sites and NO military man will EVER ask you for money. Then there is a recovery scam - a scammer recontacting you pretending to be FBI, EFCC or any other authority, telling he can help you recover your money... but for a fee, of course. And finaly there is a "stuck parcel" scam, when they supposedly sent you goods/gifts, but they got stuck somewhere on the way (for example, on the customs) and you have to pay to "customs"/bogus shipping company to get them. All types of scam



YOU PEOPLE OUGHT TO BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELF. WHAT IN YOUR CULTURE PERPETUATES AND CONDONES THIS TYPE OF BEHAVIOR.

You have a mental problem. It is quite obvious. The owner of this site is a Nigerian yet you come here to spew garbage. One day, your IP address will be banned along with every new account you create and any thread you create will be closed or deleted. You feel so superior to other Africans yet you don't join or stay in a Somalian forum. Rather you keep coming back to a Nigerian forum and mingling online with the same set of people you so despise. I just don't get it. You must feel inferior because a superior person will not mingle with people he/she deems inferior to either online or offline.

When I dislike a group of people, I will not be caught joining their forum. You need to see a psychiatrist fast because I have a feeling something is seriously wrong with you or maybe you forgot to take your medication that will keep you emotionally stable and hinder your constant anger outbursts on the internet. No sane Nairalander takes you seriously anymore because your posts never make sense and are filled with so much hate yet you can hardly stay away from us even when you get banned. You are obsessed with us that it is making you go crazy. One day your hatred will bring your miserable life to a sudden pathetic end because even bigots don't get to live forever.
