Fighting the Nigerian Money Scam
An anonymous reader writes "One of the most notorious spams, the Nigerian Money Scam, or 419, has reared its head again with the recent arrest of a California woman who embezzled $2.1 million from her law firm. However, anti-spammer Brad Christensen has apparently been having some success scamming the scammers. This exhibit contains some of his more successful exchanges. It seems he even managed to get some of the Nigerians to fly around the world to meet him. All in all, Bravo!"

So stop reading and posting, and let the rest of us have our circle jerk.
This is even better than Taco's penis-enlarging rant!
I'm the Devil the Windows users warned you about.
sure is intersting..
The war with islam is a war on the beast
The war on terror is a war for peace
If you don't like it, make your own news site. The editors and mods do their best. Except timothy. So STFU and leave us alone.
Why should I leave? I pay 10 dollars a month for this crap, is there a reason I shouldn't be able to give input on its content? This site has gone seriously downhill, I doubt much more of my money will be seen by it.
Become a moderator. Mod down comments you don't like. Have fun. Oh, or you could stop paying $BIG_NUMS a month, and just use a filter to cut out the adverts anyway.
True, this does keep the Slashdot Jantors emloyed. The 'guys' would be selling plasma without the $ from VA
MODS ON CRACK. Why else would they mod parent Informative?

my mistake
Until is goes away.
If ya don't like the article, why the fuck do you read it? Your time would be better spent jerking off.
How do you know if you like an article until you read it? Isn't that like judging a book by its cover?
SlashDot is moderated by a bunch of retarded, brainless, idiot, dumb, dim-witted morons.
Woooo guys... are actually suggesting that michael actually *check* something? What are you, nuts? If he did that, he wouldn't have time to continue his defamement of Seth Finkelstein!
Seriously though, makes you wonder what michael and timothy are actually to paid to *do*?

Loser.
No shit. "Informative"?
Who the hell is a moderator these days?
It is informative. I didn't know that he was hopping up and down in a yellow suit. Now I'm informed.
Anyhow, Jon was on the other side of the fountain giving me the documents. What John Jorsett doesn't realize is that Mr. Aba is colorblind, so he sees orange as yellow. Fortunately, I knew to wear an all-orange suit (with orange bowler had borrowed from the John Steed estate.)
There should be a moratorium on the use of the apostrophe.

I don't think they're paid.
Help I'm a rock.
That would be defamation, genius.
I say we take off and nuke it from orbit. It's the only way to be sure...
I'm pretty sure that they are. Read some of Michael's crazy rants on his personal pages. Pretty clear implications that they are.
