Oh to be so greedy that you defraud others in order to be defrauded.
But hey I can see this guy falling for it. How was he supposed to know? After all as a financial manager being asked to conceal millions in exchange for a large fee wouldn't raise any eyebrows now would it? That is his job*.
*[Dear financial managers just joking; I imagine overwhelming majority are good folks].
From the Register via Security Focus:
A Melbourne financial manager faces a hefty prison sentence after stealing AU$1m from his clients and handing it over to Nigerian advance fee fraudsters. Robert Andrew Street, 58, fell for a classic 419 scam after receiving an email from the Reverend Sam Kukah offering him a cool $65m in return for relocating cash held by Nigeria's Presidential Payment Debt Reconciliation Committee. Naturally, Street quickly learned that there were certain expenses he had to meet to oil the wheels of the illicit transfer. Accordingly, he set about fleecing clients of his financial planning business - Making Dollars & Sense - by getting them to invest in fictitious get-rich-quick schemes. Street raised a total of AU$1,039,910. AU$10,000 of this went on mobile phones apparently required in Nigeria. Street transferred the balance direct to the to the scammers. When Kukah did not cough up the expected windfall, Street's clients began to complain and he eventually had his collar felt after the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) investigated the matter.
