Yet you do not see a chance for abuse? Let's say that the scammers don't like the way we do things, by asking them to be serious and answer our 2nd letter questionnaire, which to some may look like a cut-n-paste letter. So they decide in there internet cafe in Nigeria to band together and report us and ergo get us thrown off the site. If that happened to you would you think it was fair. Dude, seriously? You obviously know nothing about scammers, and need to get over yourselves besides. If you think that they are going to waste one minute of their paid for time at the cafe 'banding together' to get some mugu who dropped them on the second email banned from a site.... just.... LMAO! Not a snowball's chance in hell. Even if the low level scammers working the catcher accounts wanted to do something like that, they wouldn't because their oga would kick their collective keester for wasting time.

Yes the Nigerians do band together. We have friends who own construction companies in Nigeria who tell us of very organized efforts to get email addresses so they can use them in webbot farms. They are very well funded by the Nigerian Military so we are told and since years ago Master was kidnapped by a Nigerian General while there on business it would seem that anything is possible.
The fact that scammers work in gangs and harvest email addresses from guestbooks and other websites, is not exactly news. What they do not do is waste time on someone who isn't hooked.
As for the Nigerian military.... LMAO. I have to ask... was the General's name Abacha by any chance??
quote:
Not at all he went to Nigeria to negotiate a contract for a communications company. On the last day his driver a Nigerian General pulled a gun and locked him in his hotel room The General demanded he call home and have $20,000 wired to the Generals Swiss bank account. Master was luck to wrestle away the gun and escape but it is a true story. The construction company is owned by a Lebanese family who have been in Nigeria for 3 generations. His driver was a Nigerian General? Really?? As for the rest, people DO often get kidnapped in Nigeria, but usually by organized gangs and not a lone Nigerian General. Oh and how many years ago was this, because $20,000 is a rather pathetic amount for a Nigerian kidnapping. They usually start somewhere between $100,000- $150,000 and work their way up.
The whole thing reminds me of a common scam where the scammers get hold of the contents of someone's email address book and write to everyone in it, claiming to be that person and saying that they are being held for ransom in a Nigerian hotel.
Jus' saying.
