Hi Jxxx,

Hope you are doing good.
I am Jonathan Crawford from England, a legal solicitor practicing in the field of; business disputes and litigation, Will and estate disputes, inheritance (Provision for Family and Dependents) Act 1975 applications. I am contacting you regarding my deceased client deposit amounting to four million us dollars currently in storage at a deposit vault here in England. The deposit was made in the year 2005 and his unfortunate death transpired on August 8th 2007. After proper identification of his body, I immediately notified the deposit firm and launched an investigation into possible surviving family relatives to alert about the situation and receive the funds from the deposit firm. Till date, my search has proved abortive.

According to the recent notice from the deposit storage vaults; failing to receive viable claims, they shall declare the deposit unserviceable and remit to the government reserve thus, the portfolio would be out of reach. I have contacted you in good faith as someone I can confide in to help receive these funds, acting as a close relative of my deceased client. I shall prepare the necessary papers to this effect and also assist you till the funds are released to you as I am not in a position to claim the funds, being the lawyer to the deceased hence; I need your assistance in this great endeavour.Let's share this blessing together, as good fortune has placed you as a foreigner that has been planted into the centre of relevance in my life. I have decided to apportion the funds in the following percentage; 30% for me, 40% for charitable deeds and 30% for you as well. Please affirm your willingness to work with me and provide your direct phone and fax numbers.

Regards,
Jonathan Crawford

Yup,
Got this too...

I played with him and he told me to go away...

Hello Hugh,

You don't seem serious and I believe you also find it difficult in understanding English. Why have you failed to provide your phone and fax number? Also why can't you address an email properly? I am not your chat pal you write to without any form of salutations.

Regards,
Jonathan

Dear Jonathan,
I refer to your email dated 18 September in the year of our lord Two Thousand and Ten.

I refer to your statement in the email in question stating that I find it difficult in understanding English. I reject your statement stating this as I have a perfect understanding in the English language.

As I understand you came to me asking for MY assistance for your own personal gain.
As I see it, you are in no circumstances to make any demand for my assistance.

I will provide the details that I see fit to provide at the time. At this time you can email me all relevant details, and further more my kind sir, I do not have a fax number nor fax machine in this modern electronic world.

If you would like to stop your self centered nonsense then I can help you with your job.

I hope you understand these, Jonathan.

Regards,
Hugh Archer.

Go Away!!

Oh well...
Success!

I found this site due to receiving a message from this guy
so I replied with a link to this and
"Do you think I'm stupid?"

Welcome Lauren,

I'm glad you were able to easily spot this scammer.

One small point though--we typically do not encourage people to tell scammers they are listed here. When scammers are alerted to posts here, they simply change their name and/or email address so that they can no longer be located here by new potential victims.

unfortunately I was scammed by this guy and paid him a lot of money. Anyway I learned from my mistake. I have a copy of his passport but I guess thats a fake one.

Dear Gooblegook

I was scammed by Jonathan Crawford 1n 2010. This was an extremely traumatic experience for both my family and myself. It's dead and buried for me but, it really bothers me that he's still scamming innocent people!
