Here is another complaint based on people's need for cash and the state of our current economy. The person wrote:
Dear Learned Friend, This is a personal email directed to you and I request that it should be treated as such. I am Barrister Michael Thomas with the Essex Court Chambers, LLP, London, a Lawyer and Solicitor at Law. You may check my profile on http://www.essexcourt.net/members/barrister.asp? b=3 I am the Personal Attorney/Sole Executor to my Late Client who worked as an Independent Oil Merchant in my country United Kingdom before he died in the china Earthquake recently with his immediate family on the 29th of Nov. I carried out this search on you and I am contacting you because i dont have anyone to come forward to claim his assets and the further reasons are as follows: Since the death of my client in Nov, I have tried my best to locate any of his extended relatives whom shall be Claimants/Beneficiaries of his abandoned personal estate and all such efforts have been to no avail. However, going by the recent publications by the Management of the Bank in which my Client deposited the sum of? 7.5M (Seven Million Five Hundred Thousand British Pounds), I fear a likely confiscation proceedings in the coming months, hence my contacting you. I seek your consent therefore, to present you to the Management of this bank as my Client's Next of Kin so that you can help repatriates the money to a foreign account. I promise a fair share of 50%-50% at the end of the transfer. If you are very interested, contact me as soon as possible with your full details.

We will be communicating through that email account, dont in anyway contact my chambers about this, please make sure you dont call me, i will be calling you so that no one knows what we are doing. Like I said, I require only a solemn confidentiality on this. Please let me have your opinion as soon as possible and send to me your personal information as follows for the execution of this transaction. YOUR FULL NAME: YOUR CURRENT ADDRESS: DIRECT CELL PHONE: AGE: OCCUPATION: MARRITAL STATUS: YOUR BANK DETAILS: Waiting for your urgent response.
There were enough typos and requests for information that I didn't respond to this at all. That seems to provide these SCAMMERS with enough information to continue to try other avenues to talk you into positions that will end with you providing cash while they walk away. You are out and they walk away a little (or a lot) of your money.
Sad but true. Watch as I provide several other of these types of messages that have been coming in at a rate of 5-10 a day and claim to be everything from FBI to church related affiliates.
