all the Nigerians?

For those who don't get it... this is a rant just for the sheer pointless fun of it... nothing to be taken serious here... that said...

I mean really... how many people in Nigeria have computers and internet access? I thought this was supposed to be a poor country???? Apparently the poverty level there is a lot higher than what it used to be. An why do they all want masters in the US... is there a shortage of masters down there? Hey... do you suppose they'd be interested in me buying up farm land down there and.... nah... probably not. LOL And all the pics too... apparently digital cameras have been on sale down there... damn chinese exports are everywhere!!!

Okay, got that off my chest after blocking the 50th nigerian profile today... apparently they manufacture them down there... some people will do anything for a job. LOL

Computers are no longer a status symbol; they come pretty cheap. Even for a "poor" country; I guess one could argue that they have their share of scammers over there too, just like here.

Unless you think that poorer countries should hold higher moral standards than rich ones

Most countries don't have a scam named after them... as in "Nigerian Scam"
