After scamming noobs on the internet asking for their bank account information, the Nigerian ‘businessmen’ got smarter. Soon they were creating fake websites and phishing information from unsuspecting customers, asking E-Bay sellers to part with their goods and now they are after Tata Nanos.
Jalopnik, one of the regular feeds I have subscribed to received an email from Belema West, apparently the President of and organization named GrassRoots Peace Ambassadors Forum, who wanted to buy 300 Nanos for his senior ‘civil servants’ to be used in the NigerDelta area in Nigeria.
