Internet Age
Poverty and hardship run rampant through the modern world, both in developed and underdeveloped nations. The grind to put a roof over our head and food on the table comes easily only to certain privileged populations.

Nigerian Economy
Nigeria is the most populous country in Africa, and also the continent’s biggest economy. However, as of 2019, roughly 40% of Nigerians live below the poverty line, making $360 US dollars a year.

“Rock Stars”
The money scammers can rake in far exceeds anything they'd be able to make with an honest day's work. The same can be said for anybody choosing a life of crime. Scammers, especially Nigerian professionals, are treated like stars in their hometowns and villages.

Millions upon Millions
The scams are still going today. And it’s a big industry. For example, in the summer 2019, the FBI busted one of their biggest online scam cases that amounted to over $46 million dollars that scammers tried to steal.

Pandemic Heart Strings
Many of us hear about these online scams and think, 'that would never happen to me.' Odds are, it probably won't. But you may not be a target. Scammers know they can't get you, so they're not even willing to try. Instead, they set their sights on the most vulnerable.

Who's a target?
Scammers primarily target the older men and women looking for love, basically anyone in their 40s, 50s and beyond. Unfortunately, this demographic tends to cling to the first signs of affection.

The Scammer's Playbook
Scammers aren't just making things up off the top of their heads. They're following an elaborate playbook constructed and edited over years of practice from the most sophisticated scammers.

10 Percenters
Playbooks are needed because it’s really a numbers game. They need to recruit members into the organization to keep pumping out the scams. Pyramid scheme-like rackets exist all over Nigeria.

Citizens
But of course, not everyone wants to be a scammer. The high profile arrests have gotten extreme reactions for the Nigerians who don’t commit crimes. Many of them have to bear the costs of the stereotyping that comes with the online scamming of their fellow countrymen.

Societal Status
Criminals such as Al Capone and Pablo Escobar were looked up to and admired in their respective times. Although they were known criminals, they often helped the poorest members of their communities. The same can be said for Nigerian scammers.
