Yes and these are totally scams. Every once in a while there will be a program on ABC or Fox about innocent people getting sucked into it. These scammers will ask you for a small donation to get the process going, and then either disappear with the donation or ask you for more claiming that additional paperwork needs to be filed and so on. In the worst case, if they have access to your credit card information, they will empty your bank account.

I get contacted several times aday with this scam. They will wipe out your bank account if you give them any information. They are corrupt Nigerians who steal for a living. You can tell by the bad grammar and misspelled words and wrong syntax.

This is a SCAM and the 'purpose' of this letter is to get you to send money and your 'banking information' so that the scammers can get ALL of your money! I get these 'letters' quite frequently ... at least two to four every week ... and I just file them in my SPAM folder and 'delete' them ... but if you want, you may make 'hard copies' and take those to your state's Attorney General's Office, because they may be 'prosecuted' if they can be 'caught.'

they are able to, although they'd face civil and or offender costs for doing so. i might strongly advise the kinfolk who have not seen the prefer to touch the lawyer in touch and in writing ask to make certain it or a minimum of for a duplicate. deliver the letter qualified. extra effective yet, get themselves an lawyer ASAP and easily have the lawyer make a request for a perfect interpreting of the will. supplies rules are very top. however the relatives needs to have a perfect putting on it quickly so as that all and sundry events in touch understand the place they stand.

Sounds like another Nigerian scam. Delete it and block their address. They want to get your bank account information so they can steal your money.
