Young Nigerian males who travel alone outside Nigeria are often involved in scamming, drug dealing and other criminal activity. Southeast Asia is full of them.
On the 419eater page one time, I read a report from somebody in Thailand about how she'd presented herself to a 419 scammer as a potential victim, and she arranged a face to face meeting with him and alerted the police, who were ready, and they caught him. She said he wasn't going to be imprisoned, but he was going to be deported.
