Amazing marketing ploy to rip off
JtheYellow | 10:01 AM on 12.18.2007 3 comments




Not having my own online store, I'm not really interested in trying this ploy myself, but maybe you guys would have an interest. Kansas City-based rapper Mac Lethal recently had a brainwave: He's asking fans to contact Nigerian 419 scammers and string them along into buying his merchandise, as part of the scam. The first person to actually get one of them to pull it off, he's giving a prize package away.

[color=darkred]This will probably not be easy, and may take some serious time investing. But it should be fun.

I'm going to tell the guy I will send him the $10,000 banker fee he needs, but it will have to be smuggled in a t-shirt from a safe online store.

Trust me, these guys have one of the weakest hustles I've ever seen. Chris Hansen from MSNBC met one of them in PERSON. The guy was dumb enough to meet him in person. I guarantee you this can be pulled off.[/color]

So, anyone feel like hawking robot face t-shirts to Africa?
