This just in... A lady has finally stopped sending money to scammers from Nigeria after losing over $400,000! It started with the oh so familiar scam email saying that a long lost relative wanted her to have his fortune. They just needed her to send some money to free up the funds and the transfer would begin. Two years later when the Department of Justice came across a $144,000 Western Union transfer they told her to stop sending them money or they would charge her with a crime. Being stupid isn't a crime, but I'm sure she was funding terrorism or something.
It just shocks me how freaking stupid some people can be!! Read all about it here if you are interested. This just goes back to what I said before about being a sucker and believing everything you read. If someone really has money to send to you then they probably aren't going to be emailing you. Something that important will go through the US Mail.
