Public Warning.-Scammers passing themselves off as Spanish lawyers and law firms

[Unregistered]

Hi I'm from Sunshine Coast QLD. I just received a letter from Valencia, Spain, sent by John Mechas Esq, Solicitor etc basically asking me to commit fraud with him. Variation on the same old scam - rich person died, same last name, probably not a relative but no beneficiaries so if I pretend to be a relative he'll fix the paperwork and we'll split the estate 50/50 - four million five hundred thousand euros... Gives me a telephone number with Spanish country code to call him...then he sincerely apologises if the proposal offends my moral ethics...

I also got a letter actually signed by Andrew Rowland at Gespan Consult Lawyers in Madrid, Spain and my relative has left 4.950 million euros and 10% goes to a charity of my choice, 30% for him and 60% for lucky ME!!!

After the Nigerian 419 scam Spanish lawyers and Spain must be the next desperate country trying to get people to scam.

Good try brother!!!!

É tudo uma farsa, recebi essa carta aqui no Brasil dizendo que eu teria uma herança para receber, sendo que o cara tem o sobre nome meu que é raro, mas não é da minha famÃ*lia! Mas o falso advogado quebrou a cara porque sou muito esperta :P

I just got the letter!!!! David Rio Martin alo, and also claiming I was next of kin heir to 4.950000. I also live in Israel, so I guess that is why they misspelled my last name (no vowel here). But I am from Brazil, so I can smell con from far away, I guess.... I come from a place where it is hard to trust!!! When something sounds too good to be true.... it probably is. There was a tiny voice in my head, could you imagine if it was true???? Because exactly how can they profit??? Jut read the post that explained to me. They ask to pay a fee before receiving the money (so obvious lol). Thank for satisfying my curiosity. Anyways, in the letter, my last name (as well as this relative I never heard of) was wrong. I don't know anyone in Spain!!!! I come from Brazil, where I always keep my guard up.... We Brazilians have a tendency, to think only in Brazil where poverty rules, there always cons you need to watch out for. I remembered finding out, in Paris, that also Europe has many talented con artists!!!! I came to check on the Internet, I was sure, that I would to find a fake law company website....For con artists, who sends me this letter, I was sure they had a fake website. Happy to find this page instead!!!!

Well.. My father (in Israel) got the same letter from one Peter Prekopp and the "firm" is Espan Abodados.
I wonder if someone tried to find these basterds.
