Nigeria demanding an apology because someone calls them out on the old Nigerian scam? Give me a freaking break.

The best comment I saw on this was on Reddit, where I found the link to the story:

Nigeria demands an apology from Sony for mocking Nigerian 419 scams... Sony promises a full apology and $10 Million, but Nigeria first has to send over $10,000 to help them successfully transport the apology and the cash out of Japan

I have been laughing pretty hard for 5 minutes now, and I can't stop. :rofl

Demand ? Or What ?
Remember what you are Nigeria.
A charity case with no force projection capability.
 
Ha, I love the commercial this is from.

Though they've changed it due to these complaints, going from the Nigerian comment to "You can't believe everything you read on the internet. That's how WWI started"

They'll claim our lack of apology is racist.
 
Very funny all around. Funny comment, funny ad, and funny how insecure the Nigerians are to demand an apology...

Thanks for the laugh.

Ha ha, very clever little dig as the petty Nigerians. :rofl
 
Apology? Niger, please
 
Wait, they are demanding another apology from Sony?

They are already banning District 9 in Nigeria for its depiction of Nigerians.

Information Minister Dora Akunyili has asked movie houses in the capital of Abuja to stop screening "District 9" because the South Africa-based sci-fi movie about aliens and discrimination makes Nigerians look bad.

"We have directed that they should stop public screening of the film," she said. "We are not happy about it because it portrays Nigeria in bad light."

Perhaps they should be demanding an apology from the spammers that are destroying their image by clog our emails with their scams.

All that railing ion Sony is doing is underscoring and drawing attention to their negative image.. smooth move.
 
If they can wait a couple months the U.S Congress will attach an apology to Nigeria as an amendment to the reparations bill HR 1860-041289-B
 
I just read on the website ScamALot.COM that the payoff for the apology was being help by Madoff FOR SAFEKEEPING..
