    La caixa bank madrid
    I have a pending inheritance which awaits to be transferred to a personal account in my name. It will cost me $2,000 to set up.. I have been dealing with Mr. Anthonio Edwardo, Accounts Officer, The Director Foreign Operations, International Remittance Department. Is there such a person at the Madrid bank? What do you know of Barririster Giuseppe Francesco?

    YOU got scammed... and won't ever see a dime of that money. Bank accounts don't cost large sums of money to set up. Anywhere in the world.

    Sorry, we can't help you with this question. We have no direct relationship with any banks. You will have to contact the bank in question and ask them yourself.

    How were you informed about this inheritance ? There are very popular scams of this nature and if I were you would not put any more money into this and be very suspicious.

    Why, just curious, did you take up all that space typing down the side of the page ?

    These are very common scams, may I guess, they had you send the money by Western Uniion?

    If it was real, you would have done a bank transfer directly from your bank to that bank.

    These are very common scams, I bet you never had any family or relations there ?
