Globalization
I just received a 419 scam letter written in bad Portuguese (that seems to have been machine-translated from some other language*) from an e-mail address in Japan claiming to have been written by someone in Ivory Coast who asks me to write him back in English at an address in France.
* almost certainly from English, because he refers to his parents as "atrasados" (late [delayed]) rather than "falecidos" (late [deceased])... Douglas Adams did this joke better.
