As far as the Nigerian scammers are concerned, they have declared 'war' on everyone worldwide with an email address, phone number or postal address.
It is now a 'no-hold's-barred' situation whereby no one is sparred.
In the early days of the scams, most people thought that only the senior and wealthy business people in the West were targets of the Nigerian scams, but this is not the case these days.
Though such senior and wealthy business people were originally targeted by the scammers in the past, these days the scammers are out to scam ANY unsuspecting person ANYWHERE in the world.
With the wonderful tools of 'ICT (Information and communication technology)' these scammers don't have to travel thousands of miles to get their scam tricks across to their victims.
Using emails, phone calls and postal mails, they sit in many parts of the world and spread their traps all over the world to catch anyone that has money to spare.
From middle class, middle age, business and professional men and women, oldies, youngsters, normal day-to-day individuals, businesses, charities, learning institutions, government departments, charities, etc, everyone with any form of communication is a potential target.
Because of the rate of the successes of these scammers,
estimates put the losses from these "Nigerian Advance Fee" operations at over $1 million "every single day" in the U.S. alone.
Like I have mentioned above, even youngsters are not spared. There are many cases of youngsters who have lost money to these scams.
Some of these youngsters fell for the scams because of the wonderful looking opportunity to make millions of dollars within a few days, without too much difficulty.
You would think these youngsters fell for these scams mainly because of naivity and inexperience, but this is far from it.
Even oldies with money saved for retirement are also potential victims of these scammers.
In most of the cases, greed is the main cause of falling for the traps. And in other cases, plain stupidity.
In some cases however, the scams come completely disguised as legitimate looking business propositions.
