I get them all the time. Ask for photo evidence and they will send you all sorts lol! I kept a Nigerian person hooked for weeks!
Photos etc came and I just asked for other things and they were expecting my bank details!

Many years ago, when I used to dabble with shares, not millions you understand, I had a phone call from an American guy, who told me he was selling some shares on behalf of a bank. They were an ‘unrealesed stock’? Of a leisure company. They were going on the market in one months time. 5 shilling shares sir, that I can let you have for 3 shillings. Ok. Hhhmm interested not. Don’t do deals like that on the phone. Pretended I was interested, and the bull started about how many ‘they’ had sold. ‘ How many would you like sir? ‘ How many could you let me have? Well normally investors are having £20,000 worth at this bargain price. Ok I said,’can you post them to my address’? Certainly sir. ‘I will put a cheque in the post, and can you send them to my appartment in winson green prison, Birmingham please? Phone went dead so my investment never took place, the coward.

He is on holiday with us,and he is a worrying type so i will not tell him until we go home next week. Then we can phone L.V.directly.It looks like a scam to me.
I doubt Liverpool Victoria (or any other insurance company) would ask for the £1100 back once they'd paid it out.

Their phone numbers are quite well hidden - eventually found some here https://help.lv.com/app/answers/list/p/21/

Thumbs down

I wish I had a dollar for every one of these types of emails I have received over the years, I have also had a great deal of people die with my surname in Jakarta and Thailand that were gazillionairs and wanted me to have the money.
The amount of so called Lawyers in Nigeria that have pleaded with me to become wealthy through a legal transaction is outstanding and even the world bank wants me to have millions. The widows of dead doctors who want me to help them spread his wealth, I must be so lucky. But I does amaze me when I read of people who send there life savings off to these people as they believe it to be true.
