Yahoo Boys, Global Economic Slump, And Hard Work by Seun(m): 6:30pm On Aug 09, 2009 |
Worldwide Slump Makes Nigeria's Online Scammers Work That Much Harder http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/08/06/AR2009080603764.html What can Yar'adua do to help these hard-working citizens? How about free accommodation? |

Seun: what do you mean by free accomodation? |
Re: Yahoo Boys, Global Economic Slump, And Hard Work by Seun(m): 6:38pm On Aug 09, 2009 |
Government provided high security residences with guards and strict disciplinary services. |

Yahoo boys are relatively more patriotic than yaradua and the rest of nigerian politicians. |

redsun: Please explain the logic behind this reasoning. |

The politicians in combination with foreign conniving counterparts export our hard money to oyinbos,while the yahoo boys in their ingenious ways imports the hard currencies back to the country. |

On reading that Washington Post description of the Nigerian internet scammer who wears a good luck live tortoise on a rope around his neck, I quickly placed my own mail-order for a similar live tortoise necklace that I can don prior to any future encounters with roadside Nigerian Police Force tax collectors. |

Is just that we all agree that the biz is bad on Nigeria Image, I give it to you that such people as our leaders who have one time or another looted this country like IBB with such money as 600bn POUNDS and more in foreign banks should've done something to help those genius guys use their ingenuity build this country rather that making those americans and other oyibo's cry for thier money.God will help us oh! those guys are trying, i wonder how they added 2+2 to arrive at a compelling answer to dupe those greedy foreigners!- yes they are greedy, else they won't have been so gullible as to fall yakata for those guys. |
Re: Yahoo Boys, Global Economic Slump, And Hard Work by redsun(m): 7:37pm On Aug 09, 2009 |
Honestly,it must take some kind of hypnotism for people to willing give out their hard earned money to invincble callers,not just a couple of quid but thousands of it. |
Re: Yahoo Boys, Global Economic Slump, And Hard Work by blacksta(m): 7:46pm On Aug 09, 2009 |
redsun: As Jakumo mentioned those guys have tortoise round their neck |
Re: Yahoo Boys, Global Economic Slump, And Hard Work by redsun(m): 7:51pm On Aug 09, 2009 |
Somethings are just too good to be true but some how the politicians lay a good foundation for the scam to work because in reality,they siphon our monies abroad and white people knows that,so when they receive these scam letters telling them they are nigerian government official with huge sums of dubiously stolen cash to stack away abroad,they readily assume it's for real because they already know african leaders,especially nigerian ones are all thieves. |

Do u know how many imans that these guys contracts for just one job to keep the mugu in place?Not that i believe the shit though,but some how it takes something out of this world for people to be that gullible and give away their monies like that.It is more like church offerings by poor believers to wealthy pastors and bishops in the name of pleasing god. |

Yahoo boys are the most hardworking and innovative people in Nigeria. Only problem is the negative channel of energy. |
Re: Yahoo Boys, Global Economic Slump, And Hard Work by Nobody: 11:37am On Aug 10, 2009 |
aieromon: there is nothing innovative about their scams they are simply imitating what has been done before 90% of their scams are a variant of the spanish prisoner http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanish_Prisoner The Spanish Prisoner is a confidence trick dating back to the early 1900s[1]. In its original form, the confidence man (con-man) tells his victim (the mark) that he is in correspondence with a wealthy person of high estate who has been imprisoned in Spain under a false identity. The alleged prisoner cannot reveal his identity without serious repercussions, and is relying on the confidence trickster to raise money to secure his release. The confidence trickster offers to let the victim supply some of the money, with a promise that he will be rewarded generously when the prisoner returns; financially and perhaps also by being married to the prisoner's beautiful daughter. However, once the victim has turned over his money, he learns that further difficulties have arisen, requiring more money, and the trickster continues attempting to get more money until the victim is cleaned out and the process ends, presumably with the victim realizing he has been defrauded and that there is neither a rich man, nor a reward coming to him. a person who puts effort into reaping where he has not sown cannot be called hardworking |
