Steve “Crocodile Hunter” Irwin has been killed

http://www.news.com.au/couriermail/story/0,23739,20349534-952,00.html

While I was never personally a big fan of the man, it is a shame to lose on of Australia’s biggest “exports”. And his work with all forms of wild-life was hard-pressed to match.
I know a lot of people aren’t suprised that he’s finally been killed by an animal, given his sometimes “reckless” behaviour - but it is still a tragedy.

There’s a few version of how he actually died, some are claiming heart attack, others are stating that the stingray barb penetrated his chest / heart. Makes litter difference in the outcome.

The “Help I’m stuck in Nigeria” scam

A few people have been reporting to us that they have had SMS’s / e-mails from someone claiming to be stuck in Nigeria who can’t return to the U.S. Would you believe they ALSO have a sick child! OMG! NIGHTMARE!

The number is 0112348056334234 and the e-mail addresses appear to be completely random so nothing there yet.
