Nikoburg, Engotu

Nikoburg is a township in central Engotu. It is known as "Scam Town" in the El Kadsreian Islands due to the large amount of telephone & e-mail scams originating from the township.

"Scam Town"
When prices of the township's main crop, El Kadsreian grapes, collapsed due to the Great Recession, the locals were forced to turn to phone & e-mail scams. In 2018, scammers from the township used a widespread variant of the sextortion blackmail e-mail scam to cheat El Kadsreians out of an estimated EK$50,000.

In a 2019 investigative report by TV station WBOR-TV's Moe Gjonbalaj entitled "Just Delete It!", regarding several Nikoburgians targeting New Englanders and Seahausians with scams, he spotted "mansions and Victorian-style homes in the midst of slums and farmland", reportedly all built using money generated from the scams run out of Nikoburg.
