SC: Excited Re: Jackalope Futures

Some guy in Turkey won’t leave me alone. He’s been writing me e-mails - in Turkish - looking for investors in a get-rich-quick scheme that I don’t understand because I can’t read Turkish. How do I know it’s a get-rich-quick scheme? Because in his messages, dollar signs outnumber the 29 letters of the Turkish alphabet 2-to-1. Most of us, of course, routinely receive e-mails from folks in Nigeria requesting our credit card numbers so the process of claiming a large inheritance can be initiated. Or from somebody in Russia seeking investors in a diamond mine. But who are these people? More importantly, are there actually idiots who send them money?/ Steve Crump , Twin Falls Times-News.

Question: I receive a “Nigerian” scam-mail almost every day. How about you?
