Hi Robert,
Thanks so much for the email — I really appreciate you getting in touch. I’ve read through everything carefully, and I must say, this is a bit of a shocker, but I’m honestly not sure what’s going on here. I’ve never heard of a “dead person” claim from Bank of Africa or any such international office, and I’ve never given anyone permission to collect anything on my behalf — not even remotely.
I’m currently living in Houston, Texas, and I work as a lawyer specializing in oil and gas litigation. I’ve been managing a few cases on the Gulf Coast lately, and I’ve actually been helping a couple of friends with their property disputes. I’ve never been in any kind of legal or financial arrangement with Washington Mutual Bank either — that’s a real red flag.
So to be clear, I’m very much alive — I’ve just been doing my morning coffee and checking in with my dog, Buster, who’s been a great companion lately. I can’t believe this claim came from a different country with no prior contact.
Could you please clarify the full name of the person who’s claiming the funds? Also, is there any official document or verification number attached to this claim? And just to be thorough — was there a specific note or letter from the bank that I might have signed or received previously?
I’d love to get this sorted properly and avoid any misunderstandings.
Warmly,
Danny Smith
