The latest Lad offering to Captain Mal has been baffled.

Quote:

In view of the above mentioned payment file number we are obliged to contact you in regards to your due out standing payment 10.5 million Dollars as we have been informed that Online account has been set up on your behalf with one of our apex Bank in Spain which was not completed because of some reason between you and BANCAJA REMITTANCE DEPARTMENT , the new Central Bank governor Dr. Sanusi Lamido has instructed this office to release direct to you the due amount 10.5 million dollar with the calculated interest accrued.
Be informed that, we have set up a Non-resident account in your name and credit the account with your total sum of US$10,500,000.00 only while the details of your account would be sent to you to enable you operate your account effectively. The account details are your account number, account Pin, check book, ATM, credit and debit cards. The Following instrument has been programmed for onward remittance to you.

OK so far, but the last bit looks like a phishing attempt. However, hearken to the next bit:

Either a lazy lad who did not change who it was issued to or when you contact him to tell him you are not Herb he will ask you to pretend to be him.
