The song remains the same, only the delivery changes slightly. But with each iteration of this fraud, new victims, themselves greedy and gullible, are found to take the bait. Groups of con artists – and that is really what they are given the quality of their prose – have been operating from Nigeria and Ghana since the early 1980s and recently spreading to other African countries, promising millions of dollars to folks in Europe or the US who will help them to shift money from Nigeria. But hold on, it is not just any money; this is often allegedly from over-invoiced contracts, stolen money, skimmed from projects with shadowy Russian companies or simply siphoned from state coffers, or stolen from an official who has already himself stolen the money.
