While we assumed everyone knew that correspondence from Nigerian leaders requesting funds were always fradulent, it appears the US government decided the opportunity was worth the risk...
- *U.S. FORFEITS OVER $480 MILLION STOLEN BY FORMER NIGERIAN DICTATOR
- *DOJ SAYS MONEY WAS STOLEN BY FORMER NIGERIAN DICTATOR
- *DOJ: $480M IN CORRUPTION PROCEEDS FROM SANI ABACHA
The DoJ describes it as "the largest forfeiture ever." Oh well - we hear Rwanda is looking to issue some bonds [3]..."We might go for double that or more, up to $1 billion."
Perhaps the US should have read this...
