Abc News (20/20) To Feature Story Of "Nigerian Scammers" On Friday At 10pm Et by Rubbermaid(f): 9:01pm On Dec 06, 2006

<warning: I heard this 2nd-hand but looked it up.>


The "Nigerian Scammer" epidemic to be featured on 20/20 on Friday, Dec 8th at 10pm ET. - I verified this much wink

I also hear that the story is supposedly going to show the problem as a government-endorsed, and culturally accepted practice in Nigeria.
The "I Go Chop Your Dollar" song will be used to underscore the perception that Nigerians widely endorse 419.

My biggest agro is that they continually say "Nigerian Scammer" - it irks me.

Anyway, don't miss it - ABC 20/20 on Friday at 10pm ET. Will also be aired on World News

Can you believe this? On ABC's 20/20, tonight, they were talking about scammers and all of that, and we all know where it led to. NIGERIANS.

So they talked about a whole bunch of stuffs, and scammers caught on tape and all of that. So well, here's what happened. They showed that we CELEBRATE SCAMMING IN OUR COUNTRY!!

HOW you ask? They said that we celebrate it oo, and they showed Nkem owoh's "i go chop your dollar". They said that Nigerian calls oyinbo's mugus.

Well considering nkem's song, i wouldn't blame them for the conclusion they made.

Here's the link, y'all can watch and talk about this.

What is black money? Money you wash with chemicals and it turns to dollars. WOW?!!

Here's a link to watch this.
