  1. anything from nigeria is a scam my friend... nigeria is one of the countries in the world thats known for nothing, but internet scams i am not sure what it is about that country that creates so many phonies, but it does... you can google scams on the net and come across tons from nigeira it's really odd edit: just don't send shit until you get your money, but trust me it's a scam i have seen this one before edit 2: i did some research and came across this http://www.nowpublic.com/press/nigeria-scam?page=1 it's 100% bs
  2. Yep, scam. Don't respond any more. Nothing good will come of it.
  3. almost certainly a scam. if anyone has EVER had a legitimate transaction involving any mention of Nigeria... I've never heard of it.
