Each sentence is a full paragraph. Why are Americans so intellectually lazy?

The story is old. There's nothing new here. It's only another old piece of information rehashed as new.


Is it not the same white people that deprive of from our freedoms by colonizing us and turning our mothers to sex slave while turning our fore father's to Horses which they ride up and down??

Only if this new generations knows what this foolish whites have done for us before we were all born then you will understand Nigeria as a whole would have been more better and advanced.

I know some MA.D people will quote me wrong without seeing nothing wrong with the slavery we once suffered from them

Ogbeni leave that slavery story. Who sold our people into slavery? is it not the same blacks that sold fellow blacks into slavery for gun, gin and mirrors? The whites preyed on the inherent greed and primordial selfishness of our ancestors. The greed and selfishness is still evident in our characters and nature although in other forms in which bad leadership and unpatriotic citizenry is are part of.

It is so unfortunate the FBI are just babbling. To stop Nigeria scams, you must first block avenue at which they're getting tools to perpetrate their job.

What are those tools?

From the report, it clearly says:
Internet
Domain names (spoofing*)
Business emails (spoofing*)
Malware*
VPN/proxy servers
Wire transfer instructions

How can you stop these without affecting those who use them for legitimate businesses?

We need to invest in technology. If the Nigerian government was doing half of what the US is doing, fraud rate wouldn't be this high.

The IT industry in Nigeria is threatened by this dangerous narrative, and rather than feel indifferent like it doesn't affect us or sit and wait for the Government, we need to come together to fight this.

* to denote illegal.

Most Nigerians don't travel so it does not apply. The root causes of fraud are bad governance and poverty. Hungry people dont care about reputation.

No wealth built on falsehood would stand. You cannot live a 'happy life' built on people's sweat, tears and blood. The curse will be on him/her, up to the 3rd and 4th generation. No be curse, na law of life.

They call it Nigerian Fraud?
That's laughable.
Nigerians make just a thin percentage of people that are feeding fat on scam.
Majority of scammers are Americans themselves. Just log on to any sales site and see how Americans sell fake and non existent goods.
I'm not saying this isn't an ill to our national identity but I think the US should also blame their citizens not always Nigerians.
I know there are scammers in every country but how do you know those selling fake goods are Americans when anybody from any country can claim to be from the US?

The real cause(s) of fraud is greed and a lack of self-worth, not bad governance. Our parents thrive during 'bad governance' and didn't steal or scam. We lived in a one room face me I face you with 7 children, but we were happy and we all turned out right. Don't blame the government for people's lack of integrity.

My grandfather with his school leaving certificate was more educated and self sufficient than many graduates today. He had a job all his working life. Now masters and some phd applicants lack jobs.
Nigerians do not lack integrity, they lack opportunity.
