I got this letter in my email today and I don't even live in England. I live in the US. This guy has sent a couple of them so far and I have not responded to them What should I do with this? The subject said "Lets do this transaction together." Has anyone else received these kinds of emails?

Scam. I usually e-mail them and tell them to make the check payable to ______ (my name) and then tell them to mail it care of my agency and give them the address. Some actually e-mail me back and others disappear for some strange reason.
But yes it's a scam.

Why would you not think this is a scam? If you were the real next of kin, why would you only take 4 million pounds and let them keep the rest?

Call your state attorney general and ask them if you can forward it ti them.. there is also a special website set up by the postmaster general investigating this... but do not do it at all.. it is a money laundering scam
