Awesome account of things from your end, Ariock! Naturally I was in such a fluster that it was really hard to have any idea what was going on elsewhere.

I almost feel like maybe I should have held back a bit on the password reset to give you a chance to get a better fix on the guy, but as you say - a successful conclusion nonetheless.

Thanks again so much!

At that point, he hadn't responded in over 20 minutes, so I doubt he was going to provide one. Also, considering at the time I was assuming it was some Londoner hooligan instead of a Nigerian, I was probably barking up the wrong tree.

And taking back your email account prevented any further problems.

Good show! That's really crappy how no one with any authority to put this guy behind bars made any move to do so though.

Good Job!
I just wish I had known about my Mother-in-law being scammed at the time that it happened, maybe we could have saved her the 80k she lost.
I'm so glad to have you guys in my life, you are awesome *huge hugz*
