I think you should take the job, you might get commissioned to fly to Nigeria to shoot his Mom's 60th birthday!

Calls to Nigeria can be expensive!Whats the harm of asking for a phone number to have a chat, ask to pay cash only and do 141 every time you call him.

Funnily enough after taking the p**s out of one I have never had any more, I was getting about one or two a month before, maybe it works the other way and they stop bothering if they know you have them sussed.

URGENT WARNING, THIS IS MOST LIKELY A SCAM, I RESPONDED THINKING IT WAS A LEGIT JOB, RECEIVED A CHEQUE FOR 10X THE AMOUNT TODAY IN THE POST. WILL KEEP YOU ALL INFORMED, HAVE SPOKEN TO POLICE ETC.... AS MY INVOICE TO HIM HAD MY BANK DETAILS ON IT, SO A BIT WORRIED.

It's a scam - pure and simple. Been doing the rounds for a few years now, but there's always someone will fall for it...
Along with the millions locked in bank accounts of their late Father/Uncle/priest that needs YOUR help to transfer out of the country (for a 10% cut of course!!), don't even think about replying, just delete it and get on with life!

I received the same email and was convinced he was genuine until today when I emailed him to get in touch re fri 15 and to inform him I would need a deposit. After I sent the email I checked his number which was unobtainable and googled his name to find this thread, I have not checked my mail at my business address yet because of being away over xmas and certainly did not give him my bank details.. whoops, I could have done with the work

If you get a scam email like this and want to have some fun with it, you can always register a random new email address (bonus points for comedy) and string them on with that, they won't bother checking...
