As a user of the Internet, I’m sure you already know all about Nigerian email scammers (if not, email me, I have a business proposition you might be interested in). Scambaiters are a group of people who fight back against the scammers by leading them on for comedic gain. One of the things they do is ask the scammers to send photos of themselves doing ridiculous things. Sometimes they oblige, but other times they will try to outwit the baiter by sending back the worst photoshops this side of a Mariah Carey album cover. These are some of those. (VICELAND)
