I just received an obvious email scam ---from Liberia--telling me that if I help with this individual's plans, I can count on 20% of $20 million. Could some one tell me to whom I should forward this email onto in order to try to catch these international crooks? Would it be the Attorney General's office or some one else? Thanks!

You can send a copy of it to your internet provider and type abuse in the subject line. There probably isn't much that can be done. These emails are usually sent with fake headers. It probably wasn't even sent from Liberia.

Thanks Byter.

I never heard of this scam. I have sent abuse letters to my internet provider. They usually tell me the addresses are fake and there is nothing they can do.

I'm sending that link to a few of my friends!

Many thanks to both Byter and Clare---I've just emailed the Bank of Nigeria. Sure hope it does some good. Knew that I could count on my friends here at AP to help once again. Thanks BIG TIME, Guys!!!
