We've reported on the African 419 scams before; this guy fights back by scamming the scammers. His latest, in which he tricks a scammer into carving several statues, including a replica of a Commodore 64, and shipping them to the UK, is really a masterpiece of con. You almost feel sorry for the carver/scammer -- until you realize that he's a thief and a liar and would steal your grandma's life savings. Justice is served.
Oh, and in this episode, he gets a scammer to copy all of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, by hand.
