The other day I got this email from Nigeria. I thought it's hilarious!

So the question is: Scam or Real?

    translation:
    Adam Biwan, Cycling coach of the high school cycling team in the far off, backwards town of Wichita Falls. He wants to learn how to speak your language and to steal all of your cycling secrets.

    The Youth and Sports Ministry sounds legit for a West African country. They didn't send a crazy elaborate scheme to get money/personal info and they sent the request through your coaching site e-mail. I would guess real. Nigeria is a bit screwy though, so don't blame me if you respond and get hosed.
