I can’t believe it but somehow the Nigerian Scammers that managed to only produce badly forged documents in previous years has finally managed to produce a fool-proof official documents which successfully fooled Citibank and almost squandered USD$27million from them. Wow.. amazing..

I’ve known these Nigerian Scammers and so very used to their ways since I have had my fair share of ‘legit’ sales dealings with them. Their ‘official documents’ could never pass a primary school web-art class but their ‘fierce’ and firm CEO talks could be convincing if they weren’t speaking in their native slang. I think the amount of time they had spend on cheating other people out of their money must be elixir of their over confidence.

Unfortunately for them, I’m too curious for my own sake and always do a through background on fishy smelling clients. Stupid scammers would never know what technology and a little bit of money could do when they have an avenging curious by nature Syikin smelling them out.

However I was quite shocked by this little news about a Singaporean Nigerian Scammer that almost cheated a big honcho, Citibank, $27million. It was reported that their official documents released by the accused and his conspirators was so good that Citibank had never once thought it was a scam.

Wow.. it must have been so good that it had fooled the bank manager. I need to keep an eye out for these type of fool-proof scam documents. I suppose that living in a high tech 1st world country like Singapore, the scammer must have learned alot of banking details and in depth studies of photoshop editing to be able to pull something this bogus through.
