A member of the howlingly funny comedy sketch troupe, Kasper Hauser, had some fun with a Nigerian scammer, sharing the email exchange he had with the greedy criminal.
Mr. Shaish,
My fax number is 415.268.0709, and my phone number
is a Bimmelman’s Business transaction decoder (type
II) are you guys ok with GSM/GPRS lines? If not, I’ll
need to give you a dolphin decoder. But I’ll need
some sort of rotary code from you, either way. For now
just send it on Ahonotu 0409 Mark I (Miami) and just
tell the operator it’s a “double-glazer”.
