You've all gotten the "Nigerian Letter" in your e-mail, and like me, probably thought it was pretty ludicrous. Me too, at least until yesterday, when we found out that my Mom has been sending large amounts of money out of the country to someone who is claiming to use it to get lots of money that is being held--well, you know the story. We've reported it to the authorities, but we've also found out that she has been told that this is a scam before, and has gone to all kinds of trouble to conceal the fact that she is sending the money off-- The thing is, she worked for years in accounting and money management, and is the last person that you'd think would fall for this--If anyone has dealt with this kind of problem and has any ideas, or knows of any resources, let me know-- Sorry to be incognito, but mom knows some of my music friends, and it could be a little embarassing --
