Hi Mark,
Thanks for the warning!
There really isn't any place that these scammers won't raise their ugly heads. My warning as posted elsewhere is, if it seems too good to be true, it most likely IS too good to be true. If someone contacts you with a great deal but doesn't even know your name, pay no attention to them. If it's illegal, (as all these "Nigerian Scam" emails are, and you get scammed, it's your own fault for being so greedy that you thought you could get away with it. One of the hallmarks of this scam is that they ALWAYS ask you to do something obviously illegal for a piece of the action (pretend to be someone you're not, etc.)
God bless,
Dave
