Hello Michael and list,
Yes I too have received these type emails from Nigeria, but asking to buy 25 to 30 Minelab Metal Detectors at a time...I treat them as you do.
By the way thanks for the beautiful thin sections....

Hi All, Since the last survey of the list resulted in 26% of the members responding that they considered themselves meteorite dealers, I post this to the entire list:
I have received six or eight inquiries from NIGERIA - all different
individuals, asking weird questions about buying "my products" - such
as: Do I ship to Nigeria? Will I take a direct bank wire, etc. The first one
I tried to accommodate, but then received additional inquiries from
others in Nigeria. After that, I strongly suspected I was receiving
some sort of spam hustle (like the never ending posts, often in all
CAPS, about some widow from some obscure country who's dead
husband left her 26.8 million dollars and if I would just let her wire
it to my bank account she would happily give me 5% or the like). As
a result, I am no longer responding to any inquiries "from Nigeria."
In any event, I wonder if others on this list who have commercial
web sites have been getting multiple enigmatic posts from Nigeria?
Best wishes, Michael
