I am shocked at all the Nigerian "love scams" taking place over the internet. Working with the law as I do, I see quite a few elderly people who fall victim to the predators who scam them out of thousands of dollars. They receive a letter in the mail saying they have "won" a certain amount of money and all they need to do is supply them with their bank information and BAM, they are totally broke. I am appalled. Recently, I saw an episode of Dr. Phil and he had two women on there who were totally scammed by the Nigerian love scheme and I think that appalled me more than the fraudulent acts upon the elderly. These women were total suckers!! I mean, c'mon...... I am a single woman with absolutely no man in my life (that is, until I want one, hehehehe) and I would neva fall for such a scam. How can women today be so stoopid!!

There needs to be a site created like that "don'tdatehimgirl.com" site which posts written emails from scammers, verbatim, so that when an unsuspecting poor hapless desperate housewife receives a note from one of those Nigerian muhfukkas, she can quickly jump over to that site and check out some of the things that foo might say to her and she can respond to him with a shot of her own venom and save herself much grief, and loot. Maybe even post some of the pictures these Nigerians are using.......er, um, stealing and using......to lure these women.

How bout I get it started, as I received this today in my email:
