there is a guy that operates a website that tells you how to mess with these guys. I can't recall the url as it was in an article I read but he has done some pretty funny things. He actually got one of these guys to fly from Nigeria to London to meet him "while he was in town". Hilarious recounting the phone conversation with the guy about how he was delayed and could he wait a couple of days, then the follow up conversation that he had to go Paris instead and could the guy fly there. He finally figured out he was being scammed and spewed a stream of profanities. Lots of great suggestions on how to give some of it back to these scammers.
He did say you really need to have your act together because you do not want them to be able to track you down if you really make them mad. Remember, these guys are criminals.

I sent this:
Please let me know where/when I need to send my bank info for the funds transfer on my inheritance. I am very anxious to begin the process of distributing the funds. As I am sure you are aware these are very trying times here in the USA and this money will help save a lot of grief for so many.
Thanks in advance.
I don't plan to mess with them too much, because as you said, these guys are professional criminals, but I couldn't resist just seeing what will happen.
I read a story years ago about a guy that scammed them out of some money actually. It took weeks and a whole chain of emails and such, but he finally got them to send him a few thousand dollars if I remember right.
