This is a wonderful multimedia account of a prank some folks pulled on “Prince Jubril Turey of Sierra Leone,” a no-talent grifter with a Yahoo account who tried to pull a “419 Letter” (Nigerian gold”) scam on them. The “victims” of the scam concocted a false identity and began stringing the Prince along, getting him to stand in public places in Ghana and do the chicken dance (a recognition sign), and generally sending him on a merry chase around Africa. The site includes the email exchange, the prince’s voicemails, and some lovely photos of the alleged gold.
(Thanks, Harry!)
