i'm sure that is a [email protected]

Hello Friend,

I Hope you've not forgotten? This is your friend Mr Alain Bruno from Burkina Faso. I'm happy to inform you about my success in getting those funds transferred under the cooperation of a new partner from China.
Presently, I'm in China for investment projects with my own share of the total sum. Meanwhile, I didn't forget your past efforts and attempts to assist me in transferring of those funds out of my country despite the failure from your side.
Due to your effort, sincerity, courage and trust worthiness you showed during the course of the transaction, I want to compensate you and show my gratitude to you with the sum of $185,000.00.
I have left an A.T.M visa card worth of $185,000.00 for you with my personal secretary Mr Sidi Lompo right there in my country Burkina-Faso. So feel free to get in touch with him for the immediate delivery of the A.T.M card to you.
This is his contact; ([email protected])

Note: Every instruction has been given to him concerning the delivering of the item to you.
At the moment, I am very busy here in China, because of the investment projects which I and the new partner are having at hand.
Also, please try to identify yourself to him with your contact details. This is to avoid sending this item to a wrong recipient.
Moreover, please never hesitate to write to me once you've received this package so that we can share the joy together.

Regards,
Mr Alain Bruno.

Yes it is a scam. There will be charges to be paid for the "delivery" of the imaginary ATM card

Indeed it is Foxy. The particular scam letter mentioned above is very similar to another scam attempt I saw dated from April 2010 because poor old mr lompo is mentioned in it. You would be wise to simply ignore the scammers trickery.

This is a standard recovery scam. See the recovery scam section for more examples. Scammers send them to people hoping that they hit someone who has previously been scammed. There is no fund, there is no partner in China or whatever country they pick, there will only be more bogus fees to pay.
