Humanity is acquiring all the right technology for all the wrong reasons - R. Buckminster Fuller
SOCIAL notworking site Facebook is riddled with Nigerian scammers using compromised accounts to con users out of cash.
Apparently the badly-spelt cash requests, long since laughed off the Internet by anyone with half a brain, are finding fertile ground amongst the Facebook crowd.
The latest trick is to send an email from a friend claiming to be stranded in Lagos, Nigeria and ask for $500 for a ticket home.
Many users totally fail to recognise the fact that their "friends" have lost total command of the English language.
Of course, Facebook allows scammers to research and target victims more effectively and avoid having their messages blocked by spam filters.
Facebook passwords are currency in the cyber criminal market for this reason and are harvested through Trojans.
Other tricks have included an email from friends calling for you to download an infected video file. µ

You fall for it you deserve all you get as stated if you believe any of these e-mails then jeeez I must have more relatives who own achers of land or are king/queen of a small island unknown to the world Encyclopedia (isnt that island near mars or something?).

It amazes me who they fool people with that sort of thing but people can be gullerble.
Most people that use facebook type like retards anyway. 

I bet most people couldn't tell the difference between a l33t speek idiot and a nigerian scammer!
All must be wise. We know we can be careful for nothing but surely, the day of judgement of doom awaits all this scammers and definitely that day is just too near more than ever before. We cant stop socialising because of this idiots. But we can pray for their doom to come soon.
Anyone who falls for this scam and is able to hand out $500 or some other large amount of cash firstly, has too much cash for their own good and should help the needy via scam or otherwise - results are the same.
Rich western boy vs poor african boy.

And secondly if people need to BUY friends then again they deserve what they are getting... and for being dumb.

If you were too drunk to realise then when you recover in the morning, shoot yourself on the balls.

This is one of those things, if you are scamed and you refuse or not getting the message from the people in the know, then learn the HARD way - these lessons will remain for life though.

Look, even Jesus and Moses before him were dismissed by some jews, even though miracles were being performed righ before their eyes! We - people of faith - consider ourselves very obedient as we listen and believe. Probably why people of our time arn't suffering as much.... Except some of us - ones that evolved from the ape - are causing pain and suffering to others in Burma and elsewhere (just got the chance to watch Rambo4 hence fresh knowledge).

I'm still waiting for a major earth quake or other massive desaster to the people deserving of it. And no one will be able to help them no matter what their status or wealth.

A pinpoint lightning strike by God almighty would have been much nicer on the calpurits deserving it.

Sooo if you are looking for a "Handsum" cab for a ride to your delight in Ssssex, sit on your facebook?
Scammers are not just on Facebook. They are in hiding on outsourcing freelance website ready to try to make a quick buck.
Two companies that come to mind are edigitalstream.com and superfreehosting.com. All from Pakistan. Their favorite targets are to scam people from US and Canada. They use fake addresses and want to claim they are in the UK.
