First of all, I'm amazed that this scam is still out there. It's been with us as long as the Internet. I can't believe that anyone is falling for this hoax.
I generally receive from two to five of these a week.
I love it when they state that the deceased have no heirs but your last names are the same and then proceed NOT to give a name.

These are usually sent on Yahoo, hotmail or another ISP's e-mail. Apparently the barrister cannot afford company e-mail. I know I could very well end this by changing my mail preferances but I feel I should be able to get and receive mail without a bunch of scumbags trying to take my last dime.

Just another thing to watch out for out there.
If you are sent one of these (and I know of no one that HASN'T received at least one) please note that your name will not be in there. They are waiting for you to reply and give it to them. Also, note the e-mail it was sent on.

If ANYONE has EVER received any money from one of these letters, PLEASE post it here on Ripoffreport.com. I would probably end up in the hospital from laughing so hard.

Tane care everyone and again thanks, Ed, for ripoffreport.com
