Being brand new on ProZ I did not know that we could find that kind of info on senders.
Well, the mail was sent yesterday evening, I figured I should not wait longer to answer and tada... Well, I'll try to be less naive next time.
I'll block him from my contact list (or report him as being a scam) right away.
Here's his email:

I also got this one. For a change, this is written in proper English. Most scams are written in very bad English, so I am wondering what scam it is. The minute you are asked for details about your account, it is the same old scam just in a new version.

France (most of the posts seem to be from those of us registered there/here)
I had an odd feeling about the way it was worded, so did not reply.
Luckily, thanks to the way we are registered here in France for work, I could not take it on anyway, so I sent it to a friend, who directed me here.

but on 21 July at 19.35 here.
As I am an interpreter as well, I wondered about this. Wasn't too impressed with the English or the content. Checked the ProZ profile which seemed a bit short of info, googled and got no hits other than ProZ (except for a musician with a slightly different name which seemed odd), and then was too busy with family and village fête to follow up. Glad to see these postings! Thanks.

Of course, another WU scam.
Well, looks like Mr. Beauperin has wasted the money on his ProZ.com membership.
