What other scams do people fall for?

What other scams apart from religion do people fall for? I think a lot of so called alternative medicines could be put under the label of scam including homeopathy, crystal healing, aromatherapy and quite a few others. Spirit mediums, and astrologers are reprehensible also for taking people for a ride. People also sell shares in companies that claim to have invented some new supper energy saving power device, (cold fusion, perpetual motion machines etc) people buy share or franchisees in the hope of getting rich when oil runs out. Even countries have invested heavily in such things in the hope of not getting left behind, and cleaver people have been able to milk government out of millions of pounds. But what is amazing is that many of the practises actually believe what they are doing even when the evidence is starring them in the face. It seams the human flaws that got us to be Jehovah?s Witness actually affect all humans and at some time in life most people fall for some bad idea or another.

How about those Nigerian scams? Ever tried to help someone smuggle $18 million out of his home country, expecting a cut for yourself? Do you, like me, get daily emails asking for your help with such a transfer? Ever tried to hang out in a Yahoo chat room, and noticed that you are being IMed by Nigerians on an average of once every three minutes? Well, dont fall for it.

Here's what's going on in Nigeria - scamming as a cottage industry.

Here's how some people are fighting the scammers.

How about competitons that require you to ring a premium rate telephone line and listen to a zillion hours worth of sales pitch before they tell you you havent won or the prize is worth less than the phone call. And the ones they do on crap TV programmes were the answers are obvious just to fool people into ringing. ie, whats the capital of England? 1.Icecream 2.my dad 3.London If you know the answer please ring ...........
