SonshineLearner Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 I'm your cousin, from your mother, 6 times removed. I have had a very hard time lately, and could use a wire transfer of only one-half a million of your new found dollars. If you don't send it within 48 hours, very bad luck may come your way. (I get those things all the time... Wish it was real, right??!!) :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LibraryLover Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 It's like 10 times I've inherited 30 million. Oprah and QEII are my neighbors. We don't speak because we value our privacy, so no media interviews, please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haiku Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 I hate to inform you, but this is most likely a scam. I'm sorry to burst your bubble. If, however, it turns out to be true, I will be glad to forward you the address to my PayPal account in anticipation of your generous donation, as I am of the poor and needy mentioned in the letter.

melissel Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 We could tour the world together! I'm waiting for my millions from the Nigerian prince. Sadly, DH had a "client" who was waiting for money from Nigeria based on this one. He kept coming in trying to buy a $500K house with no down payment, but with promises that he'd be getting the money soon. He came in so often that DH and his sales partner finally started asking him specific questions and had him bring in the emails, and they realized what was happening. He had sent thousands of dollars already and was incensed that DH and his partner thought he was stupid enough to be scammed. It was heartbreaking :( But Liz, I'm sure that's not the case here, since this is inheritance law we're dealing with, so congratulations! :tongue_smilie: Your DH must be thrilled to pieces!

Oh gosh, this is sooo sad. Was your dh able to report it to the District Attorney (are they the ones who handle actual fraud)? I know they cannot do much with just an e-mail but if the poor man had sent money... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know they cannot do much with just an e-mail but if the poor man had sent money... They thought about it, but the guy was so adamant that it was all legitimate and so angry and offended, and they knew the likelihood of anything coming of it was so small, I think they decided to let it go. I think his sales partner did call someone (I don't recall who) who basically said the same thing--they hear the stories all the time but it's so difficult to track the perpetrators down, etc. The guy eventually stopped coming in, of course. It is very sad. It blows my mind that anyone could truly fall for it, though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitten18 Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 That's AWESOME! I've been invited to participate in a class-action lawsuit where I could be entitled to as much as $2.56. I'm considering it. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_melody_ Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 I believe I also received an inheritance from Mr. Kruger last fall. Perhaps you and I are long lost relatives! I am sad to say that I felt that it was too much of a "test of his will" and declined to pursue my inheritance, since it would probably have involved a "test of my finances". Oh well, easy come, easy go, huh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially with this kind of grammar and vocabulary - and trying to tell us it comes from a British Lawyer :D.
