It was announced today that the Spanish police have picked up several suspects in an Internet lottery scam. The ten Nigerians men arrested were reportedly headquartered in Malaga, Spain, and the police has scraped up a small chunk of change and numerous documents related to the scam operation. While ten people is just a drop in the bucket with the sheer number of scams running around, the more countries that perceive Internet scams as a threat, the more work will be done to curb them, or so we hope.
