he won cos the scammer got a "p-p-p-p-power book" and he had to pay $500 odd dollars to pick up the parcel!
it cost him to post it to the UK but everyone donated for that due to comedy value.

Another story

After few email from Nigeria, guy places order for Fuel Cats and gives me visa card number. I put card through my machine and its authorised for £2600.00.
Still thinking this is dodgy, i call visa processing and ask them to check out address against card number. They tell me the only way this can be done, is if they cancel my authorisation and process it themselves. I said thats fine. Few minutes later, they tell me card failed.
Two or three days later £2600 appears in my account. After three or four months decide to buy premium bonds, but not spend money, as maybe they will still want it back.
After not winning anything for 2 months, i suddenly get a call from bank fraud department. Asked if he could call tomorrow as was in meeting.
Filled out form to get premium bonds cashed and spent all night worrying.
Next day really nice guy calls, after explaining i hadn't noticed the £2600 in my account!! he told me that he could see i had cancelled the payment and as money was from stolen US card, he said just keep the money and that often they don't even bother to recover it.
Two years on, money spent and not a word from anyone.
THATS HOW TO UNWITTINGLY SCAM A SCAMMER.

problem is some one paid... and it couldnt have been the guy who stole the card... and most cards these days are insured against theft so its not the card holder... so the bank must be out of pocket... strange they didnt want it back...

It wasn't my bank out of pocket, it was some little mid west bank in USA out of pocket. Would have returned money if asked to, but HSBC guy said keep it, as it wasn't theirs.
