I received the following email today:

Attn:Giambrone
Compliments of the day to you. I must solicit your confidentiality and
assure you that I am contacting you in good faith and this proposal
will be of mutual benefit.Richard Alex {esq.}, personal attorney to late Jim
Giambrone and also a legal practitioner.My service covers individuals,corporate bodies and institutions.
I also represent Government Departments as an External Solicitor. My client,late Mr Jim Giambrone,was killed with his entire family in a fatal accident,sparing none of their lives, some years ago before his death,I assisted him in the deposit of some funds with a Security Company for safekeeping.The funds have remained unclaimed since his death, and such unclaimed funds are appropriated and returned to the treasury as a matter of policy.
Considering the lack of success in my bid to locate any of his relatives for over a year now, I hereby solicit your consent to enable me present you as the Next of Kin to my deceased client.I am contacting you for two reasons.
Firstly, you both have the same lastname, which makes the claim most credible.
Secondly, I strongly believe that the Security Company does not deserve to inherit the funds. These reasons led to my resolve to claim the funds, which was why I contacted you.With your permission, I will proceed to establish you as the next of kin/Beneficiary to my late client. As soon as this is done, you will then give instructions to the Security Company, to transfer the deposited funds into another account you will provide, after which we shall then share the funds upon agreed terms.
When I receive your response, I will provide you with further details.I await your reply,
Regards,
Richard Alex {esq}
