Good day.
I am Barrister Charles John. I have emailed you earlier without a response. In my first email I mentioned about my late client whose relatives I cannot get in touch with. But both of you have the same last name so it will be very easy to make you become his official next of kin.
I am compelled to do this because I would not want the bank to push my clients funds into the bank treasury as unclaimed inheritance.
If you are interested you do let me know so that I can give you Comprehensive details on what we are to do.
Yours faithfully,
Charles John (ESQ.)
What Is This?
This Email with the Subject "Urgent Reply Is Needed." was
received in one of Scamdex's honeypot email accounts on Sun, 25 Jul 2010 20:48:01 -0700 and has been classified as a
Generic Scam Email. The sender shows as Barrister Charles John <charles.john.john@gmail.com>,
although that address was probably spoofed. We recommend that you do not attempt to contact any persons or organizations referenced in
this email, as you may expose yourself to scammers and, at the very least, you will be added to their email address lists for spam purposes.
Since you’re here …
we have a small favour to ask. More people are visting Scamdex and Scamalot than ever but advertising revenues are falling fast and we have no 'product' to sell.
And unlike many informational websites, we haven’t put up a paywall or membership barrier – we want to keep our site as open as we can.
So you can see why we need to ask for your help. Scamdex/Scamalot websites takes a lot of time, money and hard work to keep running. We do this because we
hate to see our fellow humans getting scammed out of their hard-earned money by low-lives.
