Scammer gets scammed

All Pastor Kothapalli Prabhakara Rao wanted was some money. I bet someone told him that he could use this wonderful thing called the Internet to ask people for donations and the money would just flow in.

The last thing he expected was to pose for a photo with a loaf of bread, a fish and a bottle of wine (The 419 Eater).

The people behind this site string the scammers along and get them to send photos with interesting slogans and props. And then they publish the results for all of us to enjoy.

Actually, Pastor Rao's email is not strictly a 419 scam (419 scams typically ask for help to transfer millions of dollars from some frozen accounts) and I feel a little bad for him but hopefully, all he has lost so far is his innocence about the net.
