I received a similar but different 419 letter today (to an ancient email
address - so a coincidence). So I sent it off to the NCIS address Simon
recommended.
They send back an acknowledgement email containing a Word document --
which doesn't inspire much confidence :( [perhaps they feel that seeing
their logo in colour and being able to see a pretty layout will matter!]
The document explains that it's really just a stats gathering exercise -
though there is a phone number to call if you've been dim enough to lose
money (or have had an extended correspondence with the bad guys).
