On both ends. Listening to Darknet Diaries [1] recently with a story on email fraud, and they mentioned that the estimated yearly take for one particular fraud group in Nigeria amounted to roughly a third of Nigeria's GDP. Even if we interpret this as inflated, it's hard to imagine that the Nigerian government is highly motivated to put a stop to that flow of capital.
