I've seen some of them. My favorite Nigerian counter-scam is this guy who pretends to be a anthropologist who gets involved in a Lovecraftian type story; see http://www.geocities.com/steerp1ke/David_Ehi.html That's inspired me to try my own. In mine, I first pretend to be an anthropologist who is on the run from a cult that he infiltrated. Then, about ten minutes after sending that message, I send another message pretending to be the cultists themselves, saying that they intercepted the victim's message, and that they will reward the Nigerian if he helps them capture the victim. I've tried this about four times so far, and none of them has responded. -- Give a man a match, and he'll be warm for a minute, but set him on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.
