Two days ago a local from the township of Dubbo in NSW Australia was arrested for being involved in a Nigerian scam. His personal wealth was estimated to be
5 - 6 million $AU. A local business man lost 800.000$AU to the scheme and an Arabian Sheik lost money in it as well. Don't know how much. It shows that greed can cause many problems. Frank in Aussieland ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, ,,,,,,,,,,,,,
