毎日毎日飽きもせずに迷惑メールが来る。今日は久々にこんなのが来た。
GOOD DAY,
My name is Prof.David Hamilton ,I am a retired lawyer, I am searching for any family member of my late client Mr. Susumu who has the same family surname with you, his bank contacted me because they want to pay his funds (Fifty Million United States Dollars) to his family.He died with his wife and two children in Miyagi Prefecture in Japan when the Tsunami Happened in Japan, he lived all his life in UK with his wife and two children, he only visited Japan that year for holiday and died with his wife and two children in the Tsunami.
There is no contact information of any of his relatives in his record with the bank, this is why I am contacting you to know if you are his relative.
I need your urgent reply about this please.
Sincerely Yours,
いやいや、「同じ名字の人を探してる」と書いてるのにその肝心の名字を書いてないし。親戚に「ススムさん」がいる人は「え！？」と思うのかな。こういう「遺産あげる人探してます」的なメールは何回か来たけど、果たして引っかかる人はいるのだろうか？50,000,000ドルということは、50億円くらい？えらい気前のいい話だなあ。現実感のない数字だと逆に嘘くさすぎるんだけど。
