    We recently received an email from someone in Nigeria who has "
    clients who bowhunt with traditional equipment." Since my husband's
    archery business has customers all over the world, including Kenya,
    it sounded legitimate. 

    He wanted to buy 50 sterling silver thumb rings (used to release the
    string) and 25 Saluki Bow tee shirts. It sounded a little peculiar,
    since they are a variety of sizes, but we were willing to take his
    cc# and ship them out.  After all, there must be some legitimate
    folks in Nigeria, right? 

    When in his next email he wanted us to add seven Nokia phones, even
    supplying the model number(!?!), I deleted the whole transaction and
    got a good chuckle out of it. 

    I could see that next thing would be, "Please supply us with your
    banking info so we can transfer the money" . Oh, sure....
