Sounds like one of the Nigerian scams unless you know the person leaving you the money and no upfront money or banking information is requested.

This is a CLASSIC SCAM.
Besides, the only people I am likely to inherit anything from are my parents. Both of their wills name ME as the executor. Since I would be the one SENDING the notice, I doubt I would receive one.

It's called SPAM!
If you were getting a legitimate inheritance, a lawyer would be contacting you by phone or mail.

Sounds like a scam. I would think someone would send you a registered certified letter by US mail requesting a return receipt.

No. No. And No. The next thing they'll do is ask for your bank account number. Then they will take all your money. Stay away, stay away. Run!
