Wow. Something new under the sun.
Uh oh. I’m currently working with a Nigerian prince.
My great state of Washington, complete inept government agencies from the Governor on down the line.
The state has stopped paying unemployment benefits until they figure out how to stop the fraud and of course their grand incompetence will hurt the folks who truly deserve it and need it.
Thanks Governor (If you elect me president I'll stop global warming) Inslee!
After taking care of the chicoms, Nuke Lagos. Nobody not there will notice.
They recruit at internet cafes and put the kids up in big houses on Lekki Peninsula.
Heck, just nuke most of Nigeria and leave a smoking hole. Still, nobody will notice.
In Lagos there are signs on houses that say,
“This property is not for sale.” Without them people sell houses they do not own.
They take out adds in the many newspapers that announce the names of people who no longer work at such-and-such a place. If they don’t the former employer is liable for any deals the former employee may make in the name of the former employer. Happens all the time.
There are signs on buildings and under bridges that say, “Don’t S_it Here.” Happens all the time. Maybe San Francisco should try this.
I saw a full-up bushman walking a Hyena on a big chain coming across the bridge at Five Cowrie Creek one day.
When you go under the bridge coming from the mainland you need to go real fast to avoid getting trash dumped on you.
The lagoon is so full of water bags, like sandwich bags, that you can’t go 300 yards without having to clean the water intake on the outboard.
There was a whirlpool in front of one of our offices that collected dead animals and people. They eventually got eaten by Bull Sharks or something.
Ahhh, fond memories of Nigeria and Lagos in the good ‘ol days.
If the Secret Service sends out a couple of agents with a “repay-or-kill” order, the Nigerians will understand and comply.
Otherwise, all that money is just going to a Nigerian prince, or oil minister, or lottery winner.
I am in Oklahoma and shut down a very small corporation that I had for 31 years last year that had only employed 3 family members. In recent weeks I have received from the Oklahoma Employment Security Commission about a dozen notices of claims from people I never heard of much less employed.
A friend of mine that shut his company years ago has received over 100.
The Commission has set up a special unit to deal with the problem.
Whoever used to run the physical (letters in the USPS) graduated to the Internet (email & hacking) many, many moons ago. One time I received an email stating that the Grand PoohBah of Nigeria had passed away, and left me a small fortune. All I had to do was ‘share’ my bank account and password. I decided to have some fun. I composed a short but concise message to send via FedEx $5,000 in gold. Once the gold arrived, I explained, I would know that I could trust them. I received this reply: ‘I know understand you.’ I replied back ‘No kidding Dick Tracy.’
