Re: latest variety of Nigeria scam
Maybe you should check your word of hearsay on what a country of over 150 mill people largest industry is before posting. Wouldn't this mean the possibility of getting a few hundreds of spam weekly? Scam is big in Nigeria but a lot of other things such as natural resources are bigger regardless of what the economy status is. getting off list topics here so please lets move on.

This looks like a plain old vanilla variety that we've all seen. Seems similar to spammers in terms of problem profile. A systematic approach is probably the right way to address it.

I disagree with this part of your suggestion. Delaying new allocations will only serve to delay acceptance of new spaces. If you implement all the other safeguards you have suggested, the multitude of notices should ensure that clued, well-informed, responsible networks have ample time to make adjustments in their networks. Networks not among those will most likely not respond until their downstream customers complain, and the best way to get those complaints started is to get more folks into those new networks.
