Scam Emails – Inheritance

There are a number of Heir Hunter scam emails circulating that suggest you are entitled to a huge inheritance. In the case of the below example when someone responded to the email they were asked for 3,500 dollars to release the funds. The emails do not originate from The Heir Hunters® and we advise you not to follow them up.
