Of course I looked up the "Company" name on google and a law firm actually came up. Knowing this was absolutely ridiculous I then copy and pasted the phone number provided in the e-mail and this site came up. Has anyone else received this e-mail?


2007-04-14 18:39:42 -
As I have stated, if all that money was for me, you can take your payment from the total and send the remainding to me via postage. I will give you a post box # at a later day. No direct info about me will be exchange. Thanks you are such a nice man.

Thanks

I received the same email as others with the last name of deceased changed to suit mine! I replied to this so-called barrister that it was a SCAM and he did not like it! I also told hime to leave me alone.
He pockets 45% of $19,000,000 and I get 35% and charity 20%. Note he (as lawyer) gets more than me???? A lawyer's fees is never more than the benefiary's inheritance. And ask yourself, he really going to donate 20% to charity or pocket it himself?! That makes him get 65%! Wow! Does he take us for fools?
He should be reported to the local police! Beware!
