Description

I received a piece of paper in the mail to my personal mailing address from what looks like a legitimate law firm in Canada, claiming to be responsible for distributing $12,950,777.00 for a person with the same last name as mine. So they have my first and last name and mailing address. Paper is very thin, not at all official looking, and unfortunately I no longer have the envelope.
