A true story of conning the Internet con-artists.
A true story of conning the Internet con-artists.

Annoyed that the disposed foreign minister of Nigeria really wasn't offering you a million dollars to help with a simple transfer? Have you ever been tempted to send a fake response just to see what might happen (or to at least take some revenge for the annoyance of having to wade through spam)?

Diana Grove, author of Dot.Conned took that temptation to the logical extreme - leading the con-men on and persuading them to go to extreme (and sometimes hysterical) efforts to complete their scams. In doing so she creates a host of hilarious fictional characters that prove the cons are even greedier than their potential victims. And she does all this without sending them a dime.


Take a tour on the dark (and funny) side of Interent scams with this unique book.
