If you receive any email from this "law office" claiming that a long distant family member of yours has an inheritance that should go towards you do not reply with any information. They will make the matter seem urgent by stating that the bank is about to take the money you deserve. This is a complete scam. 

 

The email I received is below (I'm sure they have sent out different modified versions of this one):

 

Extremely Urgent,
 
I am David Brown from the United Kingdom.  I am the principal attorney of Abbey Law Firm in Bristol.
 
I have this privilege to contact after making some diligent profile search in your area in connection with late Mr.Ivan a client of our firm, a national of your country who died with the family in the terrorist bombing attack at Tavistock Square London on 7 July 2005.
 
Our client died in the tragic bombing attack with the wife and their two children. In 2004, he intended to buy a telecommunication company outside the United Kingdom but due to some problem with the communication company and the government of that country, the project was withheld for the issue to be settled. Under my advice as his lawyer, the investment capital was deposited for a 12 month Term deposit with a bank there. Due to the death of my client in 2005, the project was not executed.
 
Since 2005, we have been making every effort to locate our client`s extended relatives for the claim of the legacy but all to no avail.
 
To be brief, the bank is about to confiscate the legacy of our client, since there has not been any beneficiary presented following the termination of the term deposit since 2005. In other to prevent the legacy from being confiscated by the bank, we decided to make a family name profile search in your country and in the process of that we came across your contact with the same family name of our client, hence we contact you to have your consent to present you to the bank as heir to our client.
 
Kindly get back to us as soon as you receive this letter as the need is extremely urgent.
 
With Regards,
 
David Brown, Esq.
