I was doing some reading and interestingly enough found this blurb on
the FBI website:
The Nigerian government is not sympathetic to victims of these
schemes, since the victim actually conspires to remove funds from
Nigeria in a manner that is contrary to Nigerian law. The schemes
themselves violate section 419 of the Nigerian criminal code, hence
the label "419 fraud."
looks like they have been using regular letters as well:

so i guess maybe the Nigerian government might be interested

A mouse trap, placed on top of your alarm clock, will prevent you from
rolling over and going back to sleep after you hit the snooze button.
