Complaint Review: Lawyer

Was contact by email by a lawyer from Nigeria. He said I was the only err to the estate of a deceased relative I have never heard of. He said my relative had moved to Nigeria but was american. He said he had left 30 million in assetts. I would be entitled t all but would have to pay him 75 percent. He sent a death certificate and a deposit form showing the 30 million. He also said I would have to get my own personal lawyer to represent me. I went along with it for a while. Also that he would be appointing this lawyer. This guy said I needed to pay this lawyer 5000 up front for his services. I told him I could not do it. He then again contacted me a few days later and said he had mortgaged his house for 3000 but needed me to supply the other two. I told him I was not paying any up front but I would be happy to send him 2000 after I got my 30 mill. I never heard from him again. Big time scam.
