Whats The Biggest Naija Scam / 419 Ever? (& What Idiot Fellfor It) by panla: 4:41pm On May 09, 2007
Just a real funny idea that crossed my mind, I heard of this scam that I felt was one of the worst or best scams ever. Where they sold the Third Mainland bridge.

Some big foreign ivestors came to Naija to discuss the deal of the sale of the third mainland bridge. The scammers took them out on an enironmental day (lastor 1st  Saturday of Month) when the roads were clear and cars banned till about 12 noon for environmental. They were complete with police escorts and all and they told them that the roads have specially been cleared for them for the occassion.

Afterwards they took them out on another busy day (the usual busy traffic on the bridge) and discussed the potential (returns) they could make if they set up a toll charge passengers crossing the bridge. And the greedy investors completed the deal and paid for the bridge only to be found out that they'd been scammed BIG time afterwards.

Dont know how true it is but it was too hillarious, any one else has more of these stories.

If its too good to be true it probably is, if u cant sleep on it, then let it go! Lessons I learnt in life scams.

The biggest ever is =N= 2 Billion scam performed by Anajemba, Nwude et al. They duped a Brazillian Bank shocked. I think they wanted the bank to fund a contract for building the Abuja International airport.

We have advance yahoo boom now though. So many student are into it. I have witnessed the stuff happen. Its called advanced yahoo cos they use 'jazz' on the foreigners. I witness 4 friends who all cashed btw =N=11M - 18M within a week last month from their victims.

The biggest scams however are outside Nigeria. So many corporate frauds out there
