    People actually fall for this crap...

    Leamington man loses $150,000 in Nigerian scam

    I'm sorry, but if you're smart enough to fall for one of these scams, it's probably for the best...

    I definitely wouldn't want my "story" publicized after that. You're basically telling everyone you know how dumb you are and asking every con artist in the world to pay a visit.

    What's even worse is of all the people that loaned him money, none of them had the sense to investigate it a bit more and see what the deal was.

    I kind of feel bad for the guy because he's probably ruined, but if the term too good to be true ever applied it sure as hell did here. And on the issue of the blacked out money that needs a formula to clean it off... Why in the hell would someone sell you the formula to clean of millions of dollars for only a few hundred thousand. This guys has to be on their Hall of Fame wall somewhere.

    The worst part of the story is he was going to use this money to buy a 14 year-old wife.
