They're still at it (13)
I've received email very similar to this...it's the desperate feeding on the desperate. Sadly enough, there are probably people who fall for this and as long as they do, this kind of thing will continue for years to come.

You would think an international attorney, or whatever his "firm" supposedly does, would understand the basic rules of grammar and punctuation in the English language. I have worked with numerous people from foreign countries and find that their use of the English language is usually superior to most Americans. English as a Second Language (ESL) speakers are usually very formal, because they don't have the bad habits that Americans pick up from regionalisms. Oh yeah, I have two degrees in communications (written and verbal), in case you might not have noticed. lol
The sad part is the number of people who will send them money. I know a guy who sent over $15,000 to a similar scam. I don't understand why anyone would. I guess the get-rich-quick scheme is too tempting.

ooby_dooby: I'm sorry but I am about to break a few rules. I didn't think these idiots were still working this ancient scam. Surely everybody on earth knows by now that nobody is going to give you 10.5 million bucks just for saying you are the next of kin to some dead guy you never met.

Awwwww come on Ooby, let's play with him that we are about to get married and want to know if we share the inheritance.
Here's a clue for those who don't know about the ego of attorneys. They NEVER, EVER sign their name "Mr." They are so proud of the "Esq" and use it every chance they get to show that they are lawyers.
Is that okay with you Dear Ooby that we share the inheritance..
