You've got a scam email from a 419 fraudster.
No he's not a real barrister. Real barristers don't use hotmail and yahoo.
Real barristers can spell
There is no $20M in a bank account to be split 70%-30%.
Your contact isn't the estranged daughter of Robert Mugabe, nor the heir to a cocoa manufacturing plant.
There isn't £20M in some trunk boxes etc etc
If you carry on you'll find that your African barrister needs some money from you "to transfer the consignment into your name" or for "storage fees" at the "security company".
You'll be asked to transfer the money by "Western union" or "moneygram"
If you're daft enough to do it, they'll ask for more money for some other strange tax or shipping fee.
I always reply to these emails and string them along. I've had the silly scammers chasing all over to various western union offices to collect the money which I haven't sent....ooops

I suggest this service: http://phonedetectives.co - The best reverse cell phone lookup service.
It's a cheap service that works great! It could be used for a much deeper search. You can use it to get hold of different varieties of background reports, and in addition cell numbers, addresses and names.. you can get unlimited reports... I ran with this because I required to verify more numbers.
You can get the name, other phone number, address history, relatives, and much more about anyone! The completly free reverse phone lookup generally doesn't provide anything interesting. To get interesting information, money will must be paid. The free searches don't provide considerably more than what may be found through the phone directory or personal information and they simply require your email to send spam. The reverse phone detective search tool does work, but you should use just the service that I posted above. The last thing you want to do, is pay for a service and find the numbers you want to lookup are not available in their directory.
The service that I reccomend doesn't have any kind of problem , you won't get any bad surprise! Trust it!
Reverse Phone Lookup area gives you additional access to millions of public records, including:
+ Find out the source of a harassing ("prank") caller
+ Research a number that appeared on your phone bill
+ Locate an old friend from high school or college
+ Research "missed calls" on your caller ID that you don't recognize
+ Verify an address
+ And more...

The absolutely free reverse email lookup sites generally provide false information, they just want your email to send you spam. To get real information, money will have to be paid.
Also, stay away from shady reverse email lookup sites, most likely you won't get any information after you make the payment. Not to mention you won't get a report and you won't get an answer if you try to call for a refund. Stick with a reputable reverse phone lookup site like http://www.emailtracer.org that has been around since 1997.

These letters from so called barristers in West Africa are a common scam. Two things to consider. 1. does it sound too good to be true - then it probably is a scam. 2. is the english good - if it tries too hard to sound legal and the standard of english is poor the again it is probably a scam.
My advice - leave anything from West Africa alone.

Want to know how to get your ex back? Change yourself. Don't worry about changing other people, worry about changing yourself. Go to https://tr.im/l9RIB
Once you do that then you can start to worry about getting back together with your ex, other wise you will find that you are fighting about all the same things and getting no where. Do what it takes and I promise things will work out in your favor.
The funny thing is I came to the realization that I had to change a little too late. After I was kicked out and after I was about to lose the only things that truly mattered to me - her love. A funny thing happens when we truly love someone and lose them. We do what ever it takes to get them back. For me I had to drop bad habits that had caused not only our relationship to sour but practically every other relationship I had had in the past. Not only with women, but with friends, co-workers, family, you name it.
Which is why I say to you as my ex at the time said to me, the only thing you can do is change yourself. Work on yourself and improve on the person that you already are. Drop the negative things in your life that don't belong there and you will see all of your relationships start to take off to new heights.

I also got an e mail from West Africa saying that my late uncle died. I did a stupid thing by replying back my phone number so that we could talk. Because I gave my phone number could he trace my bank account details?

A reverse cell lookup service I have utilized is http://www.goobypls.com/r/rd.asp?gid=538
Enter the number in the framework and they will let you know a great deal of informations about the telephone number and the person who claims it.
In the event that they have extra subtle elements you will need to pay for the report. If you need to reverse lookup one phone or area line telephone number you will be charged about $15 yet in the event that you have to reverse lookup more than one telephone or cell number you can get a years access to their database.

The free searches don't provide considerably more than what might be found through the telephone directory.
