Default Re: To Catch a Predator

I saw a different one on MSNBC today that might be a really old show, not sure.

It was called To Catch a Con-Man and it has Chris Hansen flying to London to meet up with some of those Nigerian e-mail scam type dudes ("Give me $10k to help me out in my time of need and I will give you 20% of my net-worth, or $2-million").

Hansen strings them along and keeps making up reasons he can't pay them the money yet...meet me here in 1 hour...blah blah blah...and then eventually gives them the news, "Actually, I'm Chris Hansen from an American television program called Dateline NBC."


Before this show I didn't even know that people actually fell for those things and have actually lost money.
