Scam Money Transfers
from Lawyers / Barristers
Example - David Smith
"With a wealthy dead client named, Engr.Jürge Krügger, who put YOU in his
WILL"
Have you received an email from "David Smith", claiming
that he is an attorney for a dead wealthy man (Engr.Jürge Krügger, in this case) who named YOU in his will?
It's a mystery who the dead guy is or why he named you, but you better reply
pretty quickly or risk losing millions from the "WILL". And for some reason, the
word, Will, appears in capital letters throughout the email. Along with a
description of what a great guy the dead man was... which is pretty strange in a
business letter from a law firm, isn't it? Also notice that the "lawyer" is writing to you from a free email account (Yahoo, Hotmail, etc.) Of
course, even if this were true; you would be committing several felonies,
including fraud.
If you are still salivating and eager to fill out the form, we
can assume you get scammed frequently, as this is simply another fraud to
separate you from your money (that is, whatever money you have left after being
scammed before).

Subject: THIS MY THIRD AND FINAL MAIL TO YOU
On behalf of the Trustees and Executor of the estate
of Late Engr.Jürge Krügger. I once again try to notify you as my earlier
letter was returned undelivered. I wish to notify you that late Engr. Jürge
Krügger made you a beneficiary to his WILL. He left the sum of Thirty
Million, One Hundred Thousand Dollars (USD$30, 100.000.00) to you in the
Codicil and last testament to his WILL.This may sound strange and
unbelievable to you, but it is real and true. Being a widely traveled man,
he must have been in contact with you in the past or simply you were
nominated to him by one of his numerous friends abroad who wished you good.
Engr.
Jürge Krügger until his death was a member of the
Helicopter Society and the Institute of Electronic & Electrical
Engineers.According to him this money is to support your humanitarian
activities and to help the poor and the needy in our society. Please if I
reach you as I am hopeful, endeavor to get back to me as soon as possible to
enable me conclude my job. I hope to hear from you in no distant time. Note:
You are advise to contact me with my personal email address:

I await your prompt response.
Yours in Service,
