Hi,
My late fiancee leave me an inheritance and the personal assistant email me about that. I also receive an email from UBA bank stating that they received a package thru fedex from the US attorney who handle the will. It says that the money of my late fiancee will be transfer to me and it will be thru atm debit card. He was Mr. Zulu Francis -director foreign remittance department of UBA bank. His email address is [email protected]. he even sent me a copy of inheritance certificate. But in order for me to get the atm card i have to sent couriers fee depending which courier company i will choose. If Fedex $550. I have to sent it thru western union and receiver name is chris aldo. He even emailed me the pic of my atm card. Question is -do i really need to pay the couriers fee? Is this true or a scam? Need your advice about this asap. Thank you for your help and assistance

The whole thing is a scam your fiancee did not exist and nor does the inheritance.

Just block all the emails and do not respond to them.

Please also post your "fiancee's" email address and name. His other victims may be searching for them.

His personal assistant was the one who email me that my fiancee was dead. His name is kelvin clark and email was [email protected]. i ask Zulu Francis to sent me a valid id showing he is a real employee- director for finance management of uba bank and also id of the person who will receive the money. He sent me a copy. Do you want me to post it? So you mean the email [email protected] is a scam email address? Can i post the id that they sent me?

The email address [email protected] belongs to a scammer The ID they sent to you is a fake.

They already sent their id and a passport. You are right they are fake even the phone number they use when calling me is fake coz if you call them back,you cant reach them. I have several questions before and answers are inconsistent. These are the phone number they are using +22962022658 /+22998221481 . Thank you for the guidance. :D
