I received a letter from a supposed attorney named Jackson Mertz regarding a deceased person with my same last name that supposedly had $11,550,300 in a life insurance policy and no heirs came forward. Alleged to be a real estate investor and precious stone dealer. The attorney offered to attach my name to the policy. After 20 days I would receive the money. 10% would go to charity and we would split the 90% remaining funds.

Received call from William Deighan stating im owed 30-40K from great grandfather for unclaimed funds. No business associated with letter received in mail after conversation. In fact it is very generic. Nothing found owed to me according to the treasury dept

Got a letter from "Chapman & Associates, LLP" claiming that there is an "unclaimed permanent life insurance policy" held by a deceased client. The "client" has the same last name as her. The scammer is asking for her to partner with him for the money that was left behind by the deceased client. He said that the life insurance policy is worth $11,550,300 and is requesting that 10% goes to charity while she gets to split the remaining 90% with him. He introduces himself as Robert W. Chapman and says "I am a partner at Chapman & Associates LLP in Ontario Canada," but has a UK address on the letter.

Letter in the mail; business proposal. A man died in car accident and left 10 million and need to find relative and I knew right away it was a scam because I do not have any rich relatives. I think they meant to send this to someone else.

Honey, I have something very private to share with you and I will be very glad if you could help me out because i know you are trustworthy. My late father's Lawyer contacted me this morning concerning my late father Inheritance claim, that the letter came from the British government and it was a "FINAL PAYMENT OF EXECUTED CONTRACT SUM" indicating that my late Dad had executed some contracts years back, with some Arabian OIL COMPANY in the UK and supply of oil pipes equipment's e.t.c all valued at $3,500,000USD but the ARABIAN OIL COMPANY had initially paid part of the payment to my dad's company before his death.

Now, they have already deposited the balance of $2,500,000USD with a private security and finance vault pending when the next of kin/beneficiary provides an account for the funds collection . Luckily for me, all the particulars of the private vault where the funds was lodged was enclosed in the parcel was send to my late father lawyer address and that is why he has to contact me concern the issue.

My father's attorney now advised me to secure the assistance of any trustworthy partner whom i could nominate as the husband and beneficiary of the contract funds since i am the authorized next of kin specified in the will. It would be insecure for me to Claim and deposit the funds. so i can easily authorized him to issue a power of attorney in your name as my receiver of the inheritance for investment in the USA.

To make things easier and legitimate for me, my late father lawyer advised me to nominate someone with trust who is capable to handle this for me and i have already told him much about you and how you have been caring for me. Also told him you are my fiance, which i told him you will be in a better position to handle this for me. I have already furnish him your contact this morning, that you will be contacting him on my behave, once i have talk to you.

If you may be kind enough to help me out, I will provide you with the contact of my late father's lawyer for him to advised you on how the funds could be transferred into your designated bank account..I will be willing to hear from you so i can provide the lawyer contact to you honey.

Thanks

Debbie
