How come everyone picks on the Nigerians?

Would it would just as well if it was the Egyptian Prince scam?

    It's probably because the Nigerian government were the only ones to pass an actual penal code (419) outlawing such things - which kind of gave rise to the association - by flagging it in particular they've ingrained that stereotype into people's minds.

    And I'm not even sure a country based analysis is appropriate anyway.

    In reality there's multiple sources of course.
