Scam Description
Received this letter from a law firm, Harper, Koffman & Solicitors, signed by Jones Harper in Vancouver Canada. They wanted to add me as a beneficiary for this guy’s, Charles Scott, unclaimed life insurance in the amount of $11,550,100 just because as they stated, “similarity to last name & nationality with the deceased” but I’m not an actual beneficiary or relative. The letter said the insurance company code stipulates that “Insured Permanent Polices” not claimed must be turned over to the abandoned property division of the state after 2-3 yrs. They requested that 10% be given to charity & 90% split between them & me. The letter states they have all necessary documentation to expedite the process & will provide all of the relevant documents to substantiate me as the beneficiary.
