Current Status

This blog is not frequently updated because most case-by-case scam reports are now listed in subordinate blogs. At this point in time, most of my efforts are targeted at documenting employment scams in the Suckers Wanted blog.

News: Spain nicks a load of 419ers

A while ago, I was complaining about Spain being such a ripe source of 419 fraud, particularly of the "you won a lottery" variety. Well, it appears that the local authorities have closed the net on them at last. According to an article in The Register entititled "Biggest 419 bust in history", a total of three hundred and ten people in Malaga, Spain, have been arrested in connection with this fraudulent activity. Here's hoping that justice is served.
