Isn’t there a way to block e-mail coming from Nigeria? Blocking them from contacting anybody in America should put a huge dent in their wallet.

Mary Winkler was scammed, and she wound up murdering her husband to cover up her stupidity. And she was rewarded by a jury composed of morons.

I had the same scam attempted on me when I had a car for sale on-line. They emailed, said they wanted to purchase the car for more than my asking price (much more) and that they would send a cashiers check. Of course, I was to send on a cashiers check for the difference for pick-up of the car.
I called the police to see if they were interested. They weren't to say the least.
I let them spend $20 FED-EXing me the check, verified that it was totally fraudulent, and then made fun of them for falling for my feigned gullibility.
From their grammar, they weren't native English speakers.

Apparently a relatively pernicious scam making its way around the web deals with pets such as birds and dogs (Cameroon). For info on the scam and user's experience see
http://www.helpmerick.com/fun_with_cameroon_pet_scams.htm#comment-4613! Actually this is a particularly good Q & A computer site that has weekly podcasts out of Grand Junction, Colorado. For example see: Links and Resources and Tips Archive on the previous paragraph's HelpMeRick link page.
The main site is worth bookmarking as http://www.helpmerick.com/. The site covers a number of areas including: Ubuntu installation, Vista issues, etc. In addition to archived podcasts, there is a live video cast and forum most Thursdays at 9:30 Mountain Time (11:30 PM East Coast time.)
