May 2008: I recieved this new letter this morning. Their English text is getting a little more refined, so reader beware. Vince Micado is in several scam emails.

Confidential

Greetings to you my friend,

I know this will come to you as a surprise because you do not know me. I am Vincent Micado, I work in Central Bank of Burkina-Faso, Audit & Account Director in charge of bills and exchange in the packaging and courier department.

I am pleased to get across to you for a very urgent and profitable business proposal that I believe will profit both of us after completion. I contacted you after a careful thought that you might be capable of handling this project, which I explained below.

I got your contact among others from a search on the internet and i was inspired to seek your co-operation, I want you to help me clear this consignment that is already in Europe which I shipped through our Central Bank accredited courier agent. The content of the package is $20,000,000.00 all in $100 bills, but the courier company does not know that the consignment contains money.

All I want you to do for me now is to give me your mailing address, your private phone and fax number, and I believe that at the end of the day you will have 30% and 70% will be for me.

If this arrangement is okay by you, you can email me, for security reasons other modalities will be discussed as soon as you get back to me indicating that you are ready to partake in this transaction. Note: You will act as the real owner of the said consignment.

Also Note that this transaction is confidential and risk-free. I shall provide you with more details and how you shall proceed with the claim. Waiting for your swift response. Thanks and God bless you !!

Warm regards to your family,

Mr. Vincent Micado.

I recently tried a scam lotto win out by letting mr pinto know that i can only send my info and $15,000(as i'm going to get $1,500 000 in prize money,ha ha) instead of the $500 they wanted so as to release my winnings,only if they could send me $12,500 to my name care of my local post office as i needed the $12,500 to release the bogus $15,000 from an offshore account holding around $13,000,000.this potentialy gave them a $15,000 scam bonus.i'm still waiting to hear from mr peckerhead pinto!!

Yeah - Wool itches in Middle Essex. It will be the poorest and most gullible who respond. I get a dozen of these a day, even finding them coming to my deleted items folder gets up my nose!Even worse when they are linked to cancer or death. All I can say is may the curse be upon you!!!

Don't trust this - bullshit !!!

Gosh, Do I wish it was true! However it seems to eazy to be a winner of such a great amt. when I have done nothing to earn it! I won't send my personal information..It's pretty crappy that these fools are out there just waiting to set you up for identity theft and who knows what else.

One day I will be a winner of a Lottery, only this time I will have purchased a ticket for a buck or two...
