MUCH MONEY, NO SENSE

A rich Saudi has paid a group of African conmen SR200 million to use magic to gain him a government appointment. (At the current rate of exchange 200 million Saudi Arabia Riyals is more than US$53 million.) The victim only realized something was wrong after the money had been sent overseas. The appointment the man had hoped to achieve? "A very high position in the government handling public finances." Figures.
