Latest Nigerian Scam Email Includes Picture of "Victim"

Dear Dumbass Daily Readers:

We get slammed with a ton of spam email each day and a good part of it are these so-called Nigerian 419 scams that involve people from far off countries either offering to give you a chuck of some multi-million dollar fortune, or asking for your bank account information as part of some money transfer con. (The number "419" refers to the article of the Nigerian Criminal Code (part of Chapter 38: "Obtaining Property by false pretences; Cheating") dealing with fraud.)

Most of these emails are quite lengthy and detailed, but yesterday was a first for us: they actually sent along a picture of the victim, a guy who was allegedly beaten and shot and who now needs money to pay his hospital bills. Below is the entire text of the message and the hilarious picture of this guy, his concerned "friends" and a guy dressed like a doctor.

How big of a dumbass would you need to be to send these guys any money? We'll try to write them back and see if we can get into an email exchange with them that we will post here.
