INTRODUCTORY NOTE:
Amerigo Energy, Inc. (the "Company") was advised by the Staff of the U.S.
Securities & Exchange Commission that the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board ("PCAOB") registration of the Company's former independent accountant,
Larry O'Donnell, CPA, P.C., had been revoked effective December 14, 2010. See
http://pcaobus.org/Enforcement/Adjudicated/Documents/Larry_O_Donnell.pdf. The
Staff advised us that, because of the license revocation, we may not include
any audit report prepared by Larry O'Donnell, CPA, P.C. in any filings with the
Commission. The Staff advised the Company to report this information in Form 8-
K, Item 4.01, and we hereby do so.
SECTION 4 - MATTERS RELATED TO ACCOUNTANTS AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
ITEM 4.01 CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT.
Effective December 14, 2010, the company's prior auditor, Larry O'Donnell, CPA,
P.C. registration with the Securities and Exchange Commission was revoked, and
that the Company is no longer able to include any audit report prepared by
Larry O'Donnell, CPA, P.C. in its filings with the Commission. The company has
thus dismissed Larry O'Donnell, CPA, P.C. as the auditor of record.
On or about March 15, 2011, we retained the firm of Seale and Beers, LLC to
review all interim period financial statements going forward and audit our
financial statements for the years ending December 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010.Such
change in accountant was approved by the Company's board of directors. At no
time prior to our retention of Seale and Beers, LLC, did we, or anyone on our
behalf, consult with Seale and Beers, LLC regarding the application of
accounting principles to a specific completed or contemplated transaction, or
the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on our financial statements.
The reports of our prior certifying accountant, Larry O'Donnell, PC, on our
financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008
did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion nor were
qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles,
however, such opinions expressed concerns that, in connection with the
Company's lack of significant revenues, there existed a substantial doubt that
the Company would be able to continue as a going concern.
Other than discussed above, in connection with the audits of our most recent
two years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the subsequent interim periods
up to their dismissal, there were no other disagreements between Larry
O'Donnell, PC and us on any matter of accounting principles or practices,
financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope and procedures, nor any
advisement of reportable events that, if not resolved to the satisfaction of
Larry O'Donnell, PC would have caused Larry O'Donnell, PC to make reference to
the subject matter of the disagreement or reportable events in connection with
its reports on our financial statements for such years.
We have provided a copy of this Report on Form 8-K to Larry O'Donnell, PC and
have requested that they provide us with a letter addressed to the SEC stating
whether they agree with the statements made by us in response to this item.
We have been unable to get a response from Mr. O'Donnell at such time that we do
we will file an amended 8K to indicate his response.
SECTION 8 - OTHER EVENTS
ITEM 8.01. OTHER EVENTS.

Dear Mr. Horowitz and Ms. Li:
On behalf of registrant, Amerigo Energy, Inc., we hereby respond to your
comment letter of April 1, 2011 in the same sequence in which your comments are
noted.
Item 4.01 Form 8-K/A Filed March 29, 2011
1. Please obtain and file a letter from your former independent accountant
stating whether they agree with your Item 304 disclosures, or to the
extent to which the accountant does not agree. Refer to Item 304(a)(3) of
Regulation S-K.
a. Amended 8K updated to note we have been unable to get a response.
Item 4.02 Form 8-K Filed March 29, 2011
2. We note the revised disclosure to your filing and reissue comment two
from our letter dated April 1, 2011. "You disclose that you determined it
is necessary to restate your financial statements for the fiscal year
ended December 31, 2009 to correct a valuation error in recording certain
assets acquired in 2008. Please tell us why you do not believe that it is
necessary to restate your financial statements for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2008 along with your 2009 and 2010 quarterly financial
statements." Please explicitly state whether you intend to restate your
financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 along
with your 2009 and 2010 quarterly financial statements.
a. We have updated our filing to include this information. We are
going to work with our auditor to determine a timeline for us to
be able to complete this as fast as possible. As we discussed
with your office this morning, our intent is to submit formal
request to allow us to file a comprehensive filing including all
information from prior years being restated.
3. We note your response to our prior comment four and the related revisions
to your filing. We reissue our comment four "Please tell us how your
certifying officers have considered the effect of the material error you
have identified on the adequacy of your disclosure controls and
procedures and internal controls over financial reporting as of the end
of the periods you have covered by the financial statements that you
intend to restate and as of the end of your current fiscal year."
a. We have updated our filing to include this information.
In addition, the Company acknowledges that:
the Company is responsible for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in
the filing; staff comments or changes to disclosure in response to staff
comments do not foreclose the Commission from taking any action with respect to
the filing; and the company may not assert staff comments as a defense in any
proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under the federal
securities laws of the United States.
