Yes. Definitely yes. I don't even know what your post asks, but the answer to this question is pretty much always yes.
LOL!
I was just talking to a friend through AIM about this topic and told him that as soon as I saw the heading I thought: Yes. The actual thing being questioned is irrelevant. The answer is always Yes.

If I hang out in a London hotel wearing Nigerian style clothing will some stranger come up and hand me their life savings? Hmmmmm.

You guys have it some what wrong. It’s greed that makes this work. And it is the greedy victims who should shoulder the blame. These greedy bastards run off the meet some Nigerian
because the think they can make some money with little effort on their part. Well, most of them get the return that they deserve. Most of them are too lazy to make a few inquiries into the
bonifidies of their new business partners. Personally, I think that they need their signs tattooedto their foreheads.

thermo, im glad you have such high opinions on humanity but the answer is, as they said, ALWAYS YES. Greed, agreed, but i also want to get that money, do i run out to the hotel?

Nope Thermo, you understimate the human race.
