[ANSTHRLD] OT: nigerian letters

[Bordelon, Wendel]

I have known about this particular scam for over ten years. It
did not start with email but via paper mail.  Getting one of
these letters was almost a point of pride that you were on the
"right" publication lists to be "picked" as a target.   With
the rapid growth of email list and unsuspecting people the
scam is getting more wide spread but is basically unchanged
from what is was years ago.

Consider this,  if it didn't work do you think they would still
be sending those letters?
