  • Nigerian scammers giving away a free motor bike

    From Andreas Kohlbach@21:1/5 to All on Fri Jul 15 16:17:09 2022
    Was playing with a Nigerian scammer years ago, providing an older email
    address for communication. Today I received spam

    | I have a motorbike that i am giving away.If you are interested let me know.

    Is this a new angle Nigerian scammers use? What about the good old
    "Your abandoned package", "Your funds" and other bullshit? ;-)

    I'd wager 2 million quatloos that they'll expect you to pay for non-refundable shipping, but never send you an actual motorbike.
