419 Nigerian Email Scams
From Encyclopedia Dramatica
Nigerian scam e-mails, also called "419 scam" e-mails, after the Nigerian penal code reference, are the tl;dr messages you receive now and then from someone in Africa, written in broken but fancy English, telling some bizarre story about being the son of the late dictator, needing your help to get some millions of dollars, of which you can have a big chunk.
There are many variations of the story, all of them ridiculous and preposterous. As Chris Hansen has shown, you will never get your millions, but instead will end up sending the African hundreds or maybe thousands of dollars to pay various fees that always "unexpectedly" arise, while he is trying so hard to make all the arrangements for your mutual benefit. It never fails, and the Africans make a killing, year after year, from the world's borderline-retarded masses.
The letter-writers are not always from Nigeria; indeed, the message could come from any African colony, and lately there are even messages from China. Some of the messages take a completely different approach, giving a sob story of being a poor orphan girl, or some other nonsense.

Variant
This is now so old meme that those crazy Nigerians are huffing the Jenk and coming up with new ways to troll Whitey for his Jew Gold. The latest is the Nigerian Bulldog Scam in which that Nigger Ian claims he can no longer care for his pure-bred English Bulldog. For upward of an niggardly $500 the vic can rescue the poor mutt from euthanasia.

The most recent variant of this classic scam has only been used successfully once. In it, the nigger pretends to be a young, successful politician, and a hopeful for election to the oval office. He sends out an email saying something along the lines of "I have hear your country has big missing money from monkey man president. I can put this in repair if you vote for presidential position for me yes very much." If the people he sends it to are sufficiently dumb fucks, they will elect him. From there "unexpected" expenses will arise and tax money will periodically be sent from the us treasury to an anonymous swiss bank account.
Backraid!
If you don't have the patience to play the long-term trolling game below, there are ways to have instant satisfaction, though you may never personally see the results. Simply respond to the message saying something like this:
I am very interested in helping you.
Please contact me through the web site I keep to manage my financial affairs:
http://finances.on.nimp.org
I hope to hear from you soon.
Best regards.
The pleasure may be small and fleeting, to imagine the African in some crowded, filthy internet cafe playing his little scams, and clicking that link, but it is better than no pleasure.
Pwning 419
While Nigerian scam e-mail usually makes up only a small percentage of your daily spam, it is fun sometimes to think of ways to fuck these people over. There are several trolling organizations that work full time on such activities, playing along with the African, getting the AFRICAN to send the troller $20 or $100, or a picture of himself looking retarded, getting some horrible tattoo, holding up a silly sign, or some other epic win. A gallery of these victims is below. This sort of trolling takes a lot of patience and can be rather boring, but when it succeeds, it is great.

Due to the obviously precarious nature of financial transactions across the internet, and the fact that the fucking King of Nigeria carries out his royal duties through ever so slightly suspect address "hotniggerlad148@yahoo.com", it is not uncommon for victims (scambaiters) to ask for photographic verification for security. Normally these take the form of the scammer holding up a dated sign with a code word, much like camwhores do with sharpies on their tits, cocks and prolapsed anuses. The scammers of course are one step ahead of the game, and, not wishing to divulge their true identities, create masterful forgeries using state of the art third world technology.
