I saw it before as someone posted it on this board in November (link below). This is by far the funniest 419 I have ever read.
This being said, the whole thing is not funny, it is a disgrace for West Africa. Although I feel that the majority of faudulent posts are still posted from Lagos in Nigeria (and a few from their capital Abuja), I feel that there are more and more scams posted from other countries of Western Africa. We can't wait for the governments of these countries to do anything about it - the email that you just posted is probably as far as things can go as far as government interventions are concerned ;o) - so the best policy is to inform as many people as possible, and this is what you just did by posting on this board. Thank you. Keep posting.
