PoliticsGreat Video: Scam Is Not Nigerian. by abyDayjee(op): 2:50pm On Sep 16, 2011

How often are you told of the “Nigerian scam letter”; the letter that offers you millions in fortunes, by doing nothing except to send your account details to some “prince” under persecution in Nigeria. This prince then transfers the money through your account and, you will be awarded a commission usually in the range of millions. Of course, there is really no ‘money’ as it is all a ploy to rob you of yours. This is the kind of letter that has come to be dubbed Nigerian Scam Letter or Nigerian Fraud.

The question is if it is right to associate this crime with a Nigerian identity. Some people will insist it is Nigerian – simply because they have either bought into the stereotype or fallen victim of such scam. In a previous article, I described the Spanish Prisoner letter of the 1800s which follows a similar pattern of crime – at a time when Nigeria never existed as a country. Also, other keen investigation of  such crimes have been traced to other countries as well – as far as China!

It is important to combat scam as it is a criminal act that not only robs people (innocent and greedy people alike) of their money, it also threatens  global financial stability; especially at this time of financial turmoil.  How bad is this stereotype against Nigerians, you ask?  It is bad enough that corporations; including Sony (who makes millions in Nigeria)  once used the stereotype to sell their games. The popular US sitcom, The Big slam Theory once captured the Nigerian scam stereotype in Season 4, Episode 19 of their show – by mentioning a certain “Nigerian Prince” who is a scammer. The gimmick of the show’s creator was to refer to the episode number (4:19) in reference to Nigerian scam which others have ignorantly called 419. However, ‘419’ is a positive number which labels a section of the Nigerian Constitution that states:

Any person who by any false pretence, and with intent to defraud, obtains from any other person anything capable of being stolen, or induces any other person to deliver to any person anything capable of being stolen, is guilty of a felony, and is liable to imprisonment for three years…

So, ‘419’ does not represent fraud. ‘419’ is a Nigerian mandate against fraud. This is why I especially liked the contribution of the  Forbes Contributor, Peter Reilly and his 419 Reasons to Like Nigeria. Like every law abiding citizen of this world, Nigerians are also active in the fight to combat fraud. So, let’s stop these stereotypes and simply combat the crime. There is no such thing as the “Nigerian” scam.

Why all these lie? The Indian National Football team was never banned in fact it is a member of the Asian Football Confederation, and a member of FIFA. Find the team's statistics below:

First international Appearance
France 2 - 1 India
Venue and Date: (London, England; July 31, 1948)

India's Biggest win
India 7 - 1 Ceylon
Venue and Date: (Bangalore, India; December 16, 1963)

India's Biggest defeat
USSR 11 - 1 India
Venue and Date: (Moscow, USSR; September 16, 1955)

so where does Nigeria come in here? Our forefathers merely picked a poor team for the joke. Poor India!
Highest FIFA ranking 94 (February 1996)
Lowest FIFA ranking 165 (March 2007)
