Worked on a case recently where a gentleman has sent over $250,000 to scammers in the Caribbean. Amazing that people are still falling victim to this stuff in 2019.

I hear you, Mike! This guy could make some nice contributions to our respective Luger funds!
The only thing that stopped him was us asking him to sign a "money mule" letter, basically stating that his money was being funnelled outside the United States to be used for nefarious purposes, and that if he continues to send money, he is knowingly financing a criminal organization, and is subject to prosecution. Sometimes it's hard to stop the bleeding. -Brandon |

There used to be a web site called "The Scam Baiter" where people posted their correspondence with various scammers. The funniest one was a guy convincing a scammer to pay the shipping for "Anus laptops", and IIRC he eventually managed to have a toilet shipped to Nigeria at the scammer's expense. The original thread is long gone, but I found an archived part of it: http://postarchives.entensity.net/040105/scam.htm
