The rate is higher among black people:

Africa apparently has a higher prevalence of people born with albinism with about one per 4,000 to 5,000 persons compared to a country like Denmark, with one in 60,000.

Albino Danes ...How can they tell?

But if an Albino can sell for $75,000 (which must be a bloody fortune in those parts) ... do you reckon some unscrupulous witch doctor would try to pass off a caucasian as albino? I would guess it has been tried.

I would guess that some of them are completely sincere, scrupulous, and well-intentioned.
