Several years ago there was a nitwit from Connecticut that answered one of these "Confidential" requests for assistance and actually went to Nigeria to meet the people. Not only gave his bank account info but credit card info as well. Needless to say, he was financially ruined in very short order and out one international airline ticket to boot.
