NZ Herald: Woman defrauded lawyer of $1.2m

"A personable, 65-year-old conwoman dubbed "the queen of greed" duped 10 people out of more than $2 million before losing the money to a classic Nigerian scam."

Fully story

I can't believe that someone smart enough to get $2m out of people is then dumb enough to fall for a Nigerian scam. Incredible.
