Dear Mrs. Aminata Quedraogo (SGBB)

I was truly touched to get this mail from you my foreign benefactor in darkest Africa. It made me feel quite the Pip to your Miss. Haversham. I shall of course be doing exactly as you say because you are obviously:

A) Real
B) Of position
C) To be trusted

A few questions though Mrs Quedraogo:

Q. Is that a real name or did you just tip out the scrabble letters and randomly pick them up?

Q. Where exactly is BURKINA FASO, it must be my world atlas but I couldn't find it at first but then I checked on Wikipedia and IT IS A REAL PLACE!

Q. What is the parking like in OUAGADOUGOU, and why is your name so much like the name of your fine city?

Q. Should I send my bank account details or a holding fee of some description - shall we say $5,000 (five thousand US dollars)?

Q. Why is your caps lock on?

Even so...

Please GET BACK TO ME MRS. AMINATA OUEDRAOGO (SGBB) AS I AM DISTRAUGHT TO HAVE LOST RELATIVES IN SUCH A TERRIBLE PLANE ACCIDENT... WHO WERE THEY AGAIN?

Was it my uncle Artois and his wife Stella?

I await your response.

We'll see what she says...
