I'm with you, mama. I can't believe how many people STILL fall for these scams! I hear "Nigeria" and I'm hitting the delete button like nobody's business. The saying "a fool and his (her) money are soon parted" springs to mind. A lot of my friends and coworkers have gotten these emails, but I never have. Frankly, I'm a little insulted :)

And like someone (CGUN?) said, it definitely reinforces the "meet early" advice.
