We received a letter in the post from a so-called lawyer with the name Luis Jose Serrano from C/Ribera del Loira, 46 28042 Madrid, Spain Tel 34 688 385 031. The letter is also some inheritance scam.

By letter I'm invited to claim an 8.6 million eur inheritance. Spanish law firm is Hispan Attorneys and lawyer is Pablo Miller Loritez. English is good but the visual presentation is amateurish at best.
I actually saw the name of the lawyer already here, just thought to repost it since I got it too.

I too have had one of these fraudulent letters posted from Spain calling himself a lawyer, he put my husbands first name at the end and our surname at the start he obviously can hardly handle the language. he said he got his name from Canada... we don't live in Canada and how many Smiths live in the world????
no signature at all and highly suspicious from the moment I opened it.
his name is luis jose serrrano.. wanting split 5 million 800 thousand into two so he gets half... I would suggest he is stealing and Spain is not a good place for any investments do they not know we hear all this on tv here. I had to close down an email address due to Nigerians constantly sending emails on same subject.. we get phone calls from Pakistan telling us we have a virus in our computer yeah right and what right do they have to even think they can get into our computers.. I am sick of people like this not only on the telephone but now we are getting private mail, as well as emails... time telecom got rid of these people ringing old people who get sucked in...
I also received a letter in the post from a so-called lawyer with the name Luis Jose Serrano from C/Ribera del Loira, 46 28042 Madrid, Spain Tel 34 688 385 031. The letter describes that I and my family may have inherited lots of money. He thinks that we should split the money 50/50.The letter was postmarked in France. False pretences!!!

I'm from Trinidad, West Indies, these crooks are trying to tarnish the great reputation of Spain
wants to split 50/50, 5.8 million dollars of someone who died in a hurricane with the same last name. I looked up the hurricane and it wasn't even in the country he said. Hurricane Nargis killed some one in Spain, he says. But this hurricane was in Bangledesh.
I today received this also

I just received a letter post marked in Spain, with an actual stamp on it! I'm a millionaire! Ok maybe not.... the story is a person with same last name died in cyclone Nargis in Myamar. left 8.2USD in a safety deposit box, no heirs, well except me.... just have to split it with the 'lawyer'.
The website looks good for the 'law office' but google maps show the "office" as a apartment complex and the phone number is a mobile phone in spain...
So add.

to the list of fakes!
When will they ever learn.....
Hi,
Here's another one to add to the list.
I received a letter today from Jose Antonio Duran from the law firm Rodrigo Ferrer and Associates in Madrid. The address provided is:
Paseo de la Florida, 16. 28008
Madrid, Spain
The content is similar to what other people have received, a "long-lost relative" I've never heard of left funds totalling 4.68MM EUR and they will split it 50/50 with me. It's obviously a scam. I'm in Winnipeg, Canada.
Mine didn't have a stamp or postmark and appeared with our newspaper, not with the mail.
Why all the Spanish? Unlike Nigeria, they actually have law and enforcement in Spain.
Curiouser and curiouser...
And again letter from spain. This time I received a fax to my company. They have all - my fax, telephone number, email adress and my company's name and adress. I'm from Poland.
How nice of someone i dont even know to leave me 10.5M Euros.
This cannot be a scam. I knew all the hard work would eventually pay off.
lol!
I hope the law cut their hands and feet off...
I received a letter posted from France concerning an unclaimed safe deposit box in Spain containing 8.4 million bucks to be split 50/50 with the lawyer. The letterhead is FAL Lawyers who do exist in Australia. The attorney-at-law here is Luis Burrell. of course I could find no evidence of his existence and then I found this site with more than enough evidence that this is a scam. I was sceptical in the beginning because the letter looked like a form letter with added names. Please be ware of things that sound too good to be true
Also hitting Calgary, Canada with what looks like a stamp from France in with the regular mail. $8.2M USD is mentioned as being left behind due to Cyclone Nargis in May 2008 in Myanmar...
Ho Ho Ho somebody is trying to give themselves a Merry Christmas - ha ha
Imagine, so many people all having $8.2 M, no heir and perishing during the same cyclone. What are the odds? Very decent of the lawyer, Luis Burrell, to offer to split the proceeds 50/50.
My grandfather in Edmonton, AB, Canada got the exact same letter from "Luis Burrell"...
Hi,
I'm from Spain, I've received a similar communication by e-mail:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I am a lawyer here in Spain, I need your assistance in repatriating US$12.4M (Twelve Million, Four Hundred Thousand US Dollars only) deposited by a customer who died with his entire family here in Barcelona. All attempts made to trace members of his family were unsuccessful. I will give you more information upon your response to this proposal. Send me your telephone number so that I can explain to you in details.
Best Regards,
Barrister, Fernando Nelson Martinez (fernando.martinez16@aol.com).

I'd like to give the originator of this garbage an electronic kick in the butt with a frozen boot.
I am from Toronto Canada and I received one such letter from Madrid Spain from a supposed Law firm "Rodrigo Ferrer" and the lawyers name is Pablo Hector Garcia. Stating that I am next of kin to some dead guy and there is 8+ million euros waiting that they want to split 50/50. The world is full of sick individuals. People beware!!
My parents just received a letter from Milan San Bravo, attorney at law in Madrid Spain. His letter claimed that his client tragically died in the Cyclone Nargis in May 2008 and he has been unable to locate a next of kin. He says even though we are not really related, if we say we are, he could split the $5 million estate with us 50/50 - says its 100% risk free!
My poor father was so excited and ready to fly to Spain! I hate to think of all the elderly or naïve people these scammers are successfully robbing!!
Hi, I just received one today.
Hmmm ...... They have my old address from 2 years ago.
From: Milan San Bravo
Email: milasanbravo@gmail.com
Posted in France, real 'stick on stam'p and all.
Again the 'Cyclone Nargis Disaster' caused the death.
$5.6 million dollars US to be split 50/50.
Actually the name of the dead chap 'Edwin Coombes' is of a real person (a few of them actually over time) and the family name (Coombes or often Coombs) is of folk spread throughout the world.
regards Steve Coombes

Received a letter from a MIGUEL ANGEL ACEVEDO claiming to be the CEO and lawyer in charge received today. It claims that a relative of mine has died and an auditor found an account that has been dormant for a decade now. The total monies is in the sum of 8,680,453.81 EUROS.
My letter also states that it would be a 50/50 split.
Please be aware of this scam!!!
I am living in Montréal , and i also received this letter today, here is his number, i will call and i let him know that he is a son of a ...
BEWARE, no one will give you 8 million Euro!!
I would like to join the warning!
I also received the same letter; amount is exactly the same.
Signed by Castor Sainz Andres, the CEO and lawyer...
The letter has a 0.90 euro stamp dated Jan 01, 2014.
Campbell, California
The same letter was received by me in Toronto just yesterday. People, be smart and don't give any money to these scammers!
Same letter from luis Burrell to my home in Montreal comming from Spain, 8.2 millions $$ 50 / 50. The strange thing, we make a travel in Myanmar 2 months ago and the client ( same famely name) died in Myanmar in 2008. They have our adress and travel info. I suspect someone in hotel or air Myanmar exchange our detail with that stupid "Luis Burrel"

I live in Tasmania Australia!
today I received this snail mail letter in the mail from:
Luis Enrique Martinez Nunez (a lawyer)
email: luismnunez@abogados-forum.eu
from: Bufete Perez Vidal & Asociados in Madrid Spain
phone: 0034 632 071 570
fax: 0034 917 903 717
web: perezvidal.eu
dated 30.01.2014
the deceased died in December 2006
Sum of $7.9Mil - woopee to be split 50/50
the most hillarious thing however is the following
He states he is from Spain right .... so the letter should be addressed from Spain
but it has been stamped and posted from FRANCE!!!!
as with the other letters it is on cheap paper and not even a real signature just a scanned one!
Also if it were an official letter the other thing I would expect to be on a envelope would be a return address! - I mean come one .... such important news .... you would think that if it didn't get to the recipient they would want it back!!!
hope you all stay safe and no one falls for this massive scam .... its terrible
the worst thing is that I have only lived at this address for 6 months so I would love to know where they got the address from!!
so what is the scam?
Hey Guys
We were offered only 7,9 M Dollars. In Spain they use Euro! What the hell. If he wanted it to be taken more serious, at least he should get the currency right.
Stay safe!
Hi
I live in Australia.
I just received a letter from a lawyer in Paris, France (French stamp, no return address on envelope but full address, email, phone & fax on the letterhead). A client of this lawyer, a Spanish business "magnate" with my surname, died in the Nargis cyclone and left $US2.8million in a safety deposit box in Spain. Unable to find an heir and with the box about to be deemed "unclaimed" and confiscated by the state if he can't find a legit claimant he has written to me because of my surname. He has "..worked out all the modalities to complete the operation effectively" and if I will contact him and be his partner then when the box is released to me we will split the money 50/50.
But I have some questions:
Lots of other people are getting offered lots more than $2.4million. Is this lawyer trying to cheat me already before we even get started? And 50/50 split? I think 80/20 my way sounds better. How do I deal with this cheating lowlife and get what I really deserve?
Hi Guys
Today I got a letter from Advocate Franck Morris in Madrid stating that I am the lucky recipient of a sum of $6.4M which leaves feeling cheated as some of you got offered $7.9M ;)
Anyway, this was the latest to this hopefully unsuccessful scam.
Got a letter today from Roman San Calvo, lawyer in Madrid Spain and similar to previous posts I am the lucky relative of Edwin ______ a business magnate who died in the Cyclone Nargis Disaster, blah-blah-blah. My prize is 50/50 split of $5.8M. I decided to set up a dummy email account and respond just to satisfy my curiosity to see what they say.
Just received a letter from Mr. Hortet of KPL Asociados addressed to my deceased father informing him that he is heir to $9.5M U.S. Postage in France must be cheaper than in Spain. Letter appears to be a Xerox copy used in a mass mailing.
I received a letter from a David Jorge Hortet informing me that he would like me to try and con the estate of Leonard Dowling of $9.5 million dollars by saying I am the next of kin to this person.
just also received a letter from kpl asociades, madrid claiming I would inherit 50% of $9.5 million. Mailed in France, sent to Australia.
Ich bin aus Deutschland... und bin nicht mit Ulli Hoeneß verwandt :-)
