If you did fall for it, that sucks. Definitely contact your local police, however if they are based abroad there's not much that can be done.]]> Fri, 31 Oct 2008 01:00:45 PST http://www.webupon.com/Web-Talk/Fake-Inheritance-Scams-Got-You-Down.44707#comment378935 ]]> Thu, 30 Oct 2008 13:10:21 PST http://www.webupon.com/Web-Talk/Fake-Inheritance-Scams-Got-You-Down.44707#comment377637 ]]> Wed, 29 Oct 2008 21:50:13 PST http://www.webupon.com/Web-Talk/Fake-Inheritance-Scams-Got-You-Down.44707#comment376983 ]]> Wed, 29 Oct 2008 17:38:23 PST http://www.webupon.com/Web-Talk/Fake-Inheritance-Scams-Got-You-Down.44707#comment374215 ]]> Tue, 28 Oct 2008 14:22:45 PST http://www.webupon.com/Web-Talk/Fake-Inheritance-Scams-Got-You-Down.44707#comment181911

Dear xxx

Thanks for your response, now the situation is this, l want you to stand as a beneficiary to the total sum of thirty million Six hundred thousand us dollars as a foreigner as i already stated in my previouis proposal to you, l can present you as the beneficiary to the inheritance since there is no written will by the deceased in my bank and as the director of system in my bank since 2000 l have been following the records which makes me know that the funds is long due for payment and no one has ever come forth to claim, for investigations i had sent messages but no response.

In regards the legality of the transaction,there is no risk involve because the Attorney shall handle all documentation which will serve as a back bone for you,all you need to do is follow my instruction only that way it will be risk free for i have mapped out plans to guanrantee us safe transaction of success.
This transaction shall pass through all international laws of banking in my country and yours, my Attorney shall start handling the entire documentations, he shall be responsible for drafting and notarization of the Affidavits which will eventually put you in place as next of kin to the funds with my bank.

He would handle all matters of probate on your behalf, hence you would not have to be here physically, and you will not be required to be in Court , in order to obtain the WILL of testament from the probate registry this will be issued in your name and automatically makes you the legal beneficiary to the funds for the both of us. To enable my attorney file necessary documents at our High court probate division he would need you to reconfirm your details stated below:

Full name, your huse adress, your date of birth, present country of residence,
present occupation, Tele/ Fax

As a matter of fact I shall take care of the cost of running all the logistics involved on my side of this transaction, such as the cost of retaining the services of the Attorney and obtaining the necessary official documents from the Hong Kong authorities and other miscellaneous expenses which I will incur to ensure a safe transfer, certain offices has to be lobbied in a transaction like this which would be done by the attorney i do not want us to be involved directly in this transaction,so this transaction is not risky to you as l will not need you to send me any money here in Hong Kong and also i do not expect you to ask me to send you money to enhance this transaction.

*Note that all expenses incured from the begining of this business to the realisation of the transaction once the funds is in your possesion shall be deducted from the whole funds, expenses should include the cost of the attorney retainership, any tax incured in your country and any other expenses as well as your expenses to include your telephone bills for this transaction, the balance would be shared in a ratio of 70% for me while 30% for you in this regards all expenses incured should be noted down if possible an evidence of the payments made both for telephone bills should be calculated and kept aside for records on the time of sharing both from your side and mine i shall keep my records and also notify you of my spending.

It is VERY important you note that We cannot make use of your old bank account for security reasons because l want to be sure you are the only one signatory to the account, for the purpose of this transaction you would be required to open a fresh account in your name which you have total control over (signatory to the account) however l will avail you more details and modalities of this transaction immediately l hear from you with the full contact details for the attorney to proceed the legal documentation as explained above.

As mention earlier l want you to keep this transaction to your self because i am still in active service with my bank and i do not want any thing to jeopardise this due to misinformations from any of us for they say "looose lips sinks ship" finally I would rather have the communication through email because our telephones are constantly listen too by the Homeland Security and better to do it via email or by any other means.

Upon the agreement of the above terms and conditions l will want you to send me the information needed along with any payment of your utility bills to confirm your address so that i would know i am dealing with the right person and feel free to ask any questions in regards to this transaction and a brief description of your self will be highly appreciated in your response.

Unfortunately, some people have been known to fall for this type stuff, though I'd hope no one would be fooled by the specific example I site in this article. But then again, who knows. Part of my point, aside from being a bit sarcastic about "Fujii", was to caution folks to steer clear of these scams.]]> Mon, 10 Sep 2007 06:54:15 PST http://www.webupon.com/Web-Talk/Fake-Inheritance-Scams-Got-You-Down.44707#comment36742
