<fraud.alert@met.police.uk> do act on such mails forwarded to them.

Over the last year, I've had several email responses from them,  and
even an occasional phone response.

A few of us here have been looking at setting up a UK-based site listing
the known 419 scams,  and the met's response was supportive.

Anyone interested in helping, could mail me off-list.
