Typical next-of-kin scam, typical West African writing, doesn't know a parked car from one carrying paper. Just stop talking to him. What's Henry Martins's email address?

I wrote him:
I dont agree with sharing my heritage. You wrote "we shall share the proceed,50% for you and 50% for me", but as an heir I should get 100%.
Was Stephan Kone?ný an engineer or doctor?
Are you sure I am from his kin? There is 6883 citizens of Czech Republic called ***...


and he answered:
It seems that you are a greedy person. I have introduced you into a transaction which you knew nothing about and told you that we are going to share the proceeds 50/50 and you are arguing. What it means is that if eventually the money is transferred into your account, you will seize everything. I do not think that i can do this transaction with you anymore. Sorry if i have disturbed you by contacting you for the first time
Have a nice day!

The reason he did not answer your questions in the second Email is because he was reeling off his script and he wasn't even reading your responses. He has sent this same script out to thousands of Email addresses. Very typical behaviour among scammers.
by Painful Truth Wed Jul 10, 2013 10:38 pm
sirhamster, I recommend that you do not reply anymore to the scammer. He'll keep spinning his web of lies trying to send imaginary money to you.
Apparently you've sent him your real life infos, which is one more reason you shouldn't reply to him.

Have I received an email similar to this in the name of another family of the name of my family
I want advice? Is it a scam?... :yikes:
by vonpaso xlura Sat Aug 24, 2013 2:01 pm
If it sounds like the one above, it is probably a scam. Please post it with full headers, and we can tell for sure.

Hi.
In a particular case no one will write you more than two email.
The business people do not have time to chat on the Internet.
Everything else is either or ROMANTIC or SCAM.
