So I received a letter from Barrister Zaman Bukhari of Zaman and Associates . I have no idea who he/she is, but whoever this person is offering me some monetary values from his late friend's posessions. I copied and pasted a part of the email I got.
I quote, "My contacting you is to assist in receiving and distributing the left assets which includes some monetary values in a dormicilliary account at a local bank before it is confiscated or declared as unserviceable account because i have been issued some notice by the bank to contact the next of kin to my late client to come forward to make the claims and have the account operated."
While reading the email, the big question went through my mind: what makes me the ideal candidate to receive this unknown inheritance?
This is a pretty lame answer. I quote, "My proposition to you is to seek your consent to present you as the next-of-kin and beneficiary of my late client, Since it happens that you share the same last name{V??????} which is actually the key to put you forward as the next of kin and then have the funds paid to you after which we can then share the total amount on a mutually agreed-upon percentage."
Seriously, who would buy this kind of stuff? First of all, I doubt if there is anyone in Malaysia (where the email claims to originate) who share the same last name as me. So, sorry to Mr/Mrs Bukhari, I can't help him/her. I think this whole thing is just a scam and I hope that people out there don't fall victims of this kind of stuff. Shame on whoever is trying to plot this! It's surprising that the law firm they claim to belong to actually have a website. I googled it!
