For some fun try this

www.419eater.com

This site should give you some ideas on how to have a little fun at the scammers expense.


I was in Abidjan for a couple of years, so if you'd like some inside info on the city to make your story sound a little more believable, just ask.

Cheers

Yes, I know that site and very amusing it is too.

I do recall though that the guy running it does give out clear warnings to others thinking of baiting these scammers. Basically he says don't do it unless you know exactly what you are doing, just to protect yourself.

Definitely a site worth visiting.
