That doesn't sound right.

But my uncle (who works for a bank somewhere in Africa) is going to send me $65M that they've been hiding from the government!

Dude, I'm gonna be rich!

You and me both. I just won a part to the Nigerian lottery. It was 100 million and they bought one of each combo (only 1 million). All I have to do is send a dollar for each share, then I get 100 back. Anyone else in?

But reality is sad. When I managed a store with Western Union, we had someone fall for this. The office notified me on the third day of a regular customer (a retired vet) who was sending thousands each day. I questioned him and basically told him what the scam was, It was his savings. WU did nothing. FBI turned it over to treasury. They did nothing because it was not over 20k yet.

At least I got it stopped before he sent more. The scammers actually had the gall to call me and say they were legit and were going to sue me for defamation. Told them to go for it and hung up.
