For the use of the account for a short period of time, huge sums of money are promised, also amount- ing to millions of dollars. These arrangements are al- legedly made in collabora- tion with Nigerian officials. Unfortunately, no funds are deposited.

Current estimates are that North American companies are los- ing over $1 billion a year to Nigerian scam artists.
