Zij bestrijden deze 419 scam (dat is de naam voor dit soort (internet) oplichtingszaken).
Het vervolg kan ik je wel alvast vertellen en dat is dat ze je aan het lijntje gaan houden en je bankrekening willen hebben en dat je wat moet overmaken etc etc etc etc.

De bovengenoemde site zijn mensen die vrijwillig deze oplichters bezig houden en trachten ze te achterhalen.

Dit soort mail wordt ook wel spam genoemd. Je herkent het haast altijd aan het onderwerp. Mijn advies: niet openen, gelijk wegdonderen.

En mocht je er in geloven, dan ben je zeer waarschijnlijk ook overtuigd van de juistheid van de volgende stellingen:

The earth is flat,

Pigs can fly and

Nuclear power is save!
