Why Does This Work?

without comments

The BBC is reporting that internet scams from Nigeria are costing the UK billions of pounds. How in the world is it possible that this still works? I’ve never even seen one of scam letters before.

How exactly does all this work?

“Dear Sir:

I don’t know you, and you don’t know me. But if you want to give me unfettered access to your bank account, I’d really, really appreciate it.

Yours,
Some Nigerian Scammer”

Come one, people. Think.
