If I had a million dollars, I’d buy a large number of goats, tie messages to them, and send them out through Nigeria. The notes would read
Dear honorable friend,
I am writing to let you know that a distant relation in America has unfortunately passed and left a sizable chicken farm in your name. As the executor of his estate, I have been instructed to send all the chickens to you, provided they will get along with your existing chickens. This is merely a formality, of course, but I must ask that you send me one of your chickens so that I may determine whether or not the two flocks will be compatible. I will then send you back all the chickens.
Sincerely,
Joe Camel, Esq.
Nigerians would be all like “Did you get one of those notes from America?” “Yeah! It’s a total scam. My brother sent them a chicken, and they kept asking for more chickens, and now he’s completely out of chickens.” “Oh dude, that’s terrible.” “I know. I told him not to send any chickens, but he wouldn’t listen.”
