Help keep receiving these dogy emails

aav

I keep getting emails like this saying that I have inherated millions. I know these are not real but what can I do to stop receiving them. They know my surname and everything. Any help would be great. thanks.

Good Day Sir/Madam,

This is a personal email directed to you and I request that it be treated as such. I must solicit your confidentiality and assure you that I am contacting you in good faith and this proposal will be of mutual benefit. I am Darryl Royce, a solicitor at law. I am the personal attorney/sole executor to the late Mr. Robert M. hereinafter referred to as 'my client' who worked as an independent oil magnate in my country and who died in a car crash with his immediate family in east London on the 5th of November 2003.

My late client a formal Sub-Comptroller working with Chevron Texaco Oil here in the United Kingdom and had left behind a deposit of Six Million Eight Hundred Thousand British Pounds Sterling only (£6.8 million) with a finance company. After the death of my client, the finance company contacted me, as his attorney to provide his next of kin who should inherit his fortune; this according to them is their policy in sure circumstances.

Since the death of my client, I have written several letters to the embassy with intent to locate any of his extended relatives whom shall be claimants/beneficiaries of his abandoned personal estate and all such efforts have been to no avail. I had to inform the finance company about my fruitless effort in locating my late client close relative or his next of kin. The board of directors of the company just adopted a resolution and I was mandated to provide his next of kin for the payment of this money within the next 15 official working days or forfeit the money as an abandoned funds. The company had planned to invoke the abandoned property decree of the company to confiscate the funds after the expiration of the period given me. Also I have received official letters in the last two days suggesting a likely proceeding for confiscation of his abandoned personal assets in line with existing laws of the institution.

Well I have reason very professionally and I can use a legal means to present a next of kin of my deceased client. This is legally possible and would be done in accordance with the laws of the land. On this note I decided to search for a credible person and finding that you bear a similar last name, I was urged to contact you, that I may, with your consent, present you to the "trustee" as my late client's family member so as to enable you put up a claim to the bank in that capacity as a next of kin of my client. I find this possible for the fuller reasons that you are of the same nationality and you bear a similar last name with my late client making it a lot easier for you to put up a claim in that capacity. I have all vital documents that would confer you the legal right to make this claim and would make them available to you so that the proceeds of this bank account valued at £6.8 million can be paid to you before it gets confiscated or declared unserviceable to the bank where this huge amount is lodged.

I do sincerely sympathize the death of my client but I think it is unprofitable for his funds to be submitted to the government of this country or some financial institution. My aim is to retrieve this funds and let it be claimed by the deceased family name, etc. for this I seek your assistance since I have been unable to locate the relatives for the past 4 years now and since no one has come for the claim. I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin of the deceased since you have the same last name giving you the advantage so that the proceeds of this account can be paid to you. Then we talk percentage. I know there might be other persons out there with the same surname as my last client, but after a little check my instinct tells me to contact you. Can I trust you on this? I shall assemble all the necessary documents that will be used to back up your claim.

I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of law. I will not fail to bring to your notice that this proposal is hitch-free and that you should not entertain any fears as the required arrangements have been made for the completion of this transfer. Like I said, I require only a solemn confidentiality on this. Please get in touch with me by my alternative email: for better confidentiality and send to me your telephone and fax numbers to enable us discuss further on this transaction if this proposal is acceptable by you, do not take undue advantage of the trust I have bestowed in you, Thanks for your understanding.

Kind Regards.

I use http://www.freedownloadscenter.com/Email_Tools/Anti-SPAM_Tools/CoffeeCup_Spam_Blocker.html Its brilliant.

You can black list addys and bounce email.

Blacklisting: good idea;
bouncing: bad idea.
Why? Because spammers receiving a bounced message then know that they have found a valid email address, and so you will be sent lots more spam!

Semi-Wrong

Bouncing is a perfectly good idea as long as you only do it the once
to each iffy email address keep to that rule and all will be fine.

I think you would need to explain why doing it once is a good idea. And what software will check whether it has bounced a message to a specific email address once before!
