20th February 2018 - Advance Fee Fraud Scam

On 20th February 2018, telephone number +448451320421 was reported as being used by scammers to pretend to be Scott Smith using email address scottplaw@hotmail.com as part of an Advance Fee Fraud Scam.

In Advance Fee Fraud Scams, the scammer will offer you something of high value (a large sum of money or gold for example) and all you have to do is pay a "small" fee. What the scammer is offering you does not actually exist and the scammer will come up with fee after fee that needs to be paid by the victims, until he either runs out of money or realises that he has been scammed. The scammer will often pretend to be real people or companies, use fake websites and introduce various characters, all with the aim of convincing the victim that what is being offered to him is real.

Here is the email that the scammer sent to his victims.
Thank you for your email response concerning the inheritance. We urgently need to present you to become the Administrator to the above Inheritance Estate. Please note that I never said this person was your known relative, but that you were nominated by me and be informed that this will be done in accordance with the Inheritance Laws of United Kingdom by obtaining the Court validation paper as well as a Letter of Administration.


We have the responsibility to do this for without this process, the inheritance would be taking over by the Crown Court and released to the Government coffers. As soon as we get further response of your acceptance to receive this sum, we will forward to you all the relevant papers and forms by email or fax because we hope to finalize everything within the shortest possible time with your full co-operation.

Detailed Explanation:

Be informed that an Administrator is one appointed by the court to manage an estate when one dies without leaving a WILL. If a person dies without a will and with no identifiable heir as it is in this case, the person's estate generally and legally assigned to the government. Now we have the Authority to nominate an administrator, which of course would be validated by the court to administer the Estate. You must get it right from the beginning that your nomination is primarily to prevent the estate from being taking over by the Crown Court against our Claim right.

Claim right technically refers to the funeral expenses, debts of the deceased person, and expenses of Administration. The United Kingdom inheritance laws stipulate that “anyone responsible for the funeral expenses, debts of a deceased person and the expenses of the administration becomes the Sole beneficiary of an Inheritance”. By that section, our firm would have automatically become the “Direct” beneficiary of this Inheritance estate.

However, the same United Kingdom inheritance law prevents an Attorney, Solicitor or Law Firm from being a beneficiary of an Estate of any client; hence our reasons for contacting you since you bear the same last name. So either way, we stand to lose out even though we bore the responsibilities of the funeral expenses. Therefore, in plain words we are nominating you to accept the responsibility of becoming the Administrator of the estate, which is, receiving the Inheritance Estate for the purpose of distributing it. The question here is, distributing it among whom? Well, we do not expect you to do this for free, so we propose that we share this Estate between you and us on this ratio thus; 40% for you and 50% for us and the balance 10% shared among various charity organization around the world.

This opportunity hardly ever occurs when there is not any identifiable heir to be named, so we implore you understand the peculiarity of this matter and therefore treat as such. Unfortunately, we would not accept any involvement of any other lawyer seeing the peculiarity of the matter. I am assuming that this is acceptable to you, so please confirm that by providing the information requested below and I would be forwarding in my next email what needs to be done.

I look forward to your prompt response

Regards

Scott.
