Are you serious?

Since no one else ever takes these seriously, I am now the official photographer for the  Federal Republic of Nigeria.  It turns out they really did need a photographer!  Lagos will now be taking the fashion world by storm.

New York - Paris - Milan - Lagos

I feel sorry for legitimate Nigerian business people, who are the worst victims of these scams.

If that nation knows what's good for, it will deal with the enemy within.

When "the enemy within" is the second largest industry in the country, it tends not to be bothered much.

This has been around awhile.

Yes it's a scam. If it mentions Nigeria in the address or anyplace in the text, it's a scam. The Nigerian government not only fails to cooperate with US and other worldwide law enforcement, they consider these scams to be a legitimate and valued way of bring cash into Nigeria.  If you need further validation for this opinion, look up your local Postal Inspector's office an give them a call.

Yeah, unless you ahh...like have...relatives or a friend in nigeria, all this stuff goes in the trash....

I got this email too. All I gotta say is... if they are "professionals" then why do they have so many typos and grammar errors?

I've seen so many of these come into my inbox...and they go right into the trash. Most of these people use yahoo mail as and address, because it's not so easy to trace them that way (so I've heard). Anyhow, just keep the old saying in mind: "If it sounds too good to be true, then it is."

Just got the same email today but they changed it to David Vaughan from Dakova Fashions. Even referenced getting the email address from model mayhem (its in my styulist profile) Whee! I'm part of the club too!
