You’d have thought that the world would have moved on and forgotten about the 419 scammers that gave Nigeria a bad name. But we came across something that shows otherwise.

In an episode of an American TV show called Blackish, the kids made reference to Nigeria. The siblings tell their brother that the girl he’s been chatting with isn’t genuine.

The girl says, “At best this is a middle-aged Nigerian who wants your money or kidney.”

The younger brother says, “I’m trusting to a fault and even I know that this screams Nigerian scam.”

In another shot, his other sister says, “Kirsten is actually a 40-year old Nigerian man living in an empty swimming pool in Lagos.”
