Scam that originates in Nigeria, usually sent out via mass emails. The scammer pretends to be a
millionaire CEO and tells a fake story about having assets seized unfairly by the
government, and needing somebody to help stash millions of dollars in a secret account. A 20% cut is promised as a reward, but only if you give the scammer an up-front fee, or your bank account number.
Something gullible people fall for.
