U.S. Starts Hunting For Nigerian Scammers
Nigerian scams are widely known throughout the world. Though they are often poorly disguised, some gullible people still fall for them, and become victims of greedy and sly fraudsters.
In United States, a new government's initiative may put an end to those practices. The body responsible for consumer protection, the Federal Trade Commission, recently signed a memorandum of understanding with two Nigerian agencies to increase cooperation against that type of scam.
"Cross-border scammers use fraudulent emails and other scams to bilk consumers all over the world, while undermining confidence in legitimate businesses," FTC Chairwoman Edith Ramirez said in a statement announcing the partnership.
The memorandum of understanding is the first to include a foreign criminal enforcement authority, the
FTC said.
Looks like the U.S. had enough! Which country would be next to start hunt down on Nigerian scammers?
