This article is useful to many persons who may be receiving various messages and even phone calls purportedly from Nigeria. It is good if this is made known to all in order to be aware of the frauds in Nigeria, popularly known as 419. I stayed in Nigeria for a long period and so I am aware of these methods. Generally these messages are fake to entice ignorant people. They contain for example a legacy of bank account running in millions of dollars, employment letters with high salary, immigration charges, emergency etc. Unless one is careful, these people can be very clever when it comes to money frauds.
