letter saying i am beneficiary
I have recieved a letter from someone in China saying that someone with the same suraname as me has died intestate, and that i need to contact them urgently to claim the 8.5 million!!! As you can understand i am very dubious about this. Any advice in telling me how to proceed would be very helpful. Is this some kind of scam or joke?... Would i have been informed by letter if i was to inherit this much money?

DO NOT REPLY!!! These are scams and normally come from Africa. They will ask you to give them your bank account details so that they can send the money to you. Or they will ask for a loan in order to process the money.
Do not do anything apart from throw away the letter or delete the email. |
