1331409 2013-03-05 19:39:00 I got a letter from France yesterday claiming a relative (or had the same last name anyway) has died and left $10.5 million US dollars and the lawyer representing it has contacted me a and wants to spit the money 50/50.

If i remember i will scan it and post it here

Tell the lawyer that you want the whole lot!

I'm more concerned with the ones that pupport to be your bank or your isp or your email host, they might suck some older people in (older than me)

1331413 2013-03-05 21:01:00 The impression I get from my emails is of an epidemic of an amazing number of very wealthy people dying over the last ten years or so (a) leaving many millions in the bank and (b) leaving no known relatives.

I’m just glad that I have several living relatives and I don’t have millions in the bank so I’m not in the ‘at risk’ group.

1331415 2013-03-06 07:15:00 More likely to get a bill from the lawyers for clearing all the junk out of the home of some derelict relative who hadn't paid their bills.

Or is that just my family then?
