View Full Version : I go chop your dollar!
<p>First, a little explanation:</p><p>This is a Nigerian music video basically talking about basically how great the Nigerian scammer e-mails are. It's from a Nigerian movie about the same thing. </p><p>419 = The section of the Nigerian criminal code under which such things are prosecutable. </p><p>Oyinbo = whitey</p><p>The reason I'm posting it is besides it's subject matter, it's a funny video, and such a happy/catchy song. I'll find myself randomly singing it.</p><p><a href="http://www.tlcafrica.com/I_go_chop_your_dollar1.mov">Here it is. </a></p>
