Mayor of a small county town, completely naive guy, thought that this 'business proposal' would be a good opportunity to get his town budget out of debt. Now the town is *a little bit more* in debt.
Unbelievable. But 419 scam is a big big business.
I'm a little bit worried about my father, he is a pensioner, completely unexperienced in such matters, and an ideal target for any kind of scam, in my opinion. My strategy is to tell him incidentally about 'have you heard about the newest scamming method?' when I visit him, thus trying to make him more aware. Nothing happened yet, fortunately.
