This might be one of the most painful bumps in VN history... :no:

Ah, so you didn't read the linked thread I posted then....

If you ever want to kill a solid day by just laughing your ass off, check out that site. It's basically a bunch of guys who manage to pull scams on those who try to scam them (mostly out of Nigeria).

In this particular case, the guy took a basic typo from a scammer (Asus Laptops were referred to as "Anus Laptops") and turned it into shipping a few tons with of junk to Nigeria on a COD basis and costing the guy a solid five figures in shipping charges.

As a matter of fact, we can

Sweet...now we can talk about this without that sinking feeling in the pit of your stomach... :)

Ohio...I looked at that site some more today - that is hilarious...I can't believe the lengths gone to in order to screw those guys over.

I have a friend who is a car racing enthusiast who baits obvious scammers on car reselling sites. Some of his forwarded email threads are hilarious.

That was really funny, but I wish visitors could read more than 5 pages. I wonder how many shipments the Nigerian paid for before he realized he wasn't going to receive any working Anuses.

Paying for anuses that don't actually work?

Sounds like an average night in San Francisco.....

(I'll be here all night, make sure to try the the veal and don't forget to tip your waiter!)
