Re: <nettime> [office@plasmastudii.org: help these bankers]

I've taken to reading out Nigerian Scams on my radio show. They are so
entertaining, with almost a sense of pathos. I started a dialogue with one
of the scammers once, pretending to be a gormless fool, interested in
getting the cash. I led him on from fleeting interest, through how to set
up the account and transfer the funds, and then finally saying that the
fraud police were onto me and I had to pull out of the deal. He got quite
agitated.

If you are in Adelaide, South Australia, listen in and get your dose:

"The Four Course Breakfast"
Three D Radio
93.7 FM
Saturdays, 8 to 11 am
