From http://www.theregister.co.uk/2007/07/02/419_singer_caught/">The Register: "Nigerian comedian and actor Nkem Owoh was one of the 111 suspected 419 scammers arrested in Amsterdam recently as part of a seven month investigation, dubbed Operation Apollo. Owoh became internationally known for his song "I Go Chop Your Dollar", the anthem for 419 scammers, which was banned in Nigeria after many complaints.The song was the title track from the comedy, The Master, starring Owoh as a scheming 419er. The alleged scammers are suspected of running a series of lottery-based (AKA 419-lite) scams."
