The New Scam is for Family Law

After months of boredom and the same old spam...Hooray! Look at this. We got a new angle baby! We are scamming family lawyers. Well good for you. Not one, but two emails today for collecting funds. The first is my favorite because they use a famous Japanese wrestler (Tanaka Masato) for the girls name. Nice.

Hi Counsel

My name is Tanaka Masato. I am a contacting your firm in regards to a divorce settlement with my ex husband
Paul Masato).who resides in your jurisdiction. I am currently on assignment in Japan . We had an out of court Agreement (Collaborative Law Agreement) for him to pay $448,450.00 plus legal fees. He has only paid me $44,000 since.
I am hereby seeking your firm to assistance in collecting the balance from him.. He has agreed already to pay me the balance but it is my belief that a Law firm like yours is needed to help me collect payment from my ex-husband or litigate this matter if he fails to pay as promised.

Sincerely,
Tanaka Masato

Dear Counsel,

I was Mrs. Barbara Santos now Ms. Barbara Williams. I am from England but present living in Hong Kong. I was married to an American for eight years and we both stayed happily here in Hong Kong. There was a change after some time and my husband suddenly began to act in a strange manner. He started seeing other women and became very unhappy with my presence. He no longer expressed the love I used to know so I filed in for divorce. He consented and the divorce procedure was completed in England because that is where we got married. He agreed to pay $650,000 (Six Hundred and Fifty Thousand Dollars) but till this day he has failed to make the payment and he now stays in your region with his new family. I will like to hire the services of your honorable law firm to claim my compensation money. I need your professionalism to finally get what I deserve.

Please kindly get back to me as soon as possible and let me know if you will be able to represent me in your country as he presently stays there.

I will be looking forward to hear from you.

Best regards,
Ms. Barbara Williams
