Have you heard of the latest Nigerian 419 scam?
I live in UK and received an email offering me an ATM Debit Card only when I send them a $85 payment to release it.
Fenway Courier (made up company)
They want to know my occupation inc my gender as they want to steal my identity...i suppose.
I sent them a made up name using MUGU as surname as it means idiot in thier back street language and an address other nigerians are using and a made up +4470 number...lol
Do you have experience of this?

If you like scambaiting the forums on 419eater.com are a good read and you can even publish your best scambaits there for others to read
The funniest one I've ever read was something a scambaiter posted on Gumtree in regards to a Nigerian housing scam, it had me laughing outloud
