A new variant of the Nigeria scam

[davidbfpo]

From a US IT security blogsite an interview with a Nigerian fraudster: http://www.schneier.com/blog/archive....html#comments there are two other link interviews.

Their introduction is cautionary:

Editor’s Disclaimer: Whilst I am reporting an actual conversation, I have no way of verifying the information or details contained within. The interviewee contacted me voluntarily and anonymously claiming to be an ex-scammer who is now studying in the UK. I have agreed to tell his story but this is told ‘as is’ without guarantee as to accuracy or truthfulness. To protect our users we have agreed that the interviewee, who will be known by the pseudonym “John”, will not directly take part in discussions or comments and will not join our community. I do not know how long “John” will maintain contact and in the event that contact is broken, this series of blogs will be discontinued.

Finally no request is made for any cash transfer in reading the interviews.
