I was messaged, by name, about a property I haven't owned in over 10 years. It was a very vague message that would make most people contact them for clarification.

SCAMPULSE
Email states he had made countless attempts to locate any family members or relatives he was delighted to locate myself. "In accordance to Uganda Financial policy, my client account valued at $850k USD still remains taken for a period of two years and will be reverted to the government on a few weeks because he died intestate(sic), except if a family member comes forward to claim his Estate as the law demands."
Email goes on to ask for my telephone # and blah, blah, blah he will be entitled to 10% of the deposit (not mentioned anywhere else in email) as his professional fee. Didn't ask for money or deposit yet; only my phone #. Have a copy of email printed out.

Good Day,
Please do accept my apologies I do not wish to invade into your privacy,I had written an earlier mail to you but without response,In my first mail I mentioned to you about my late client Mr.J.Sevigny a nationality of your country who died with his family On the 14th of August 2014. I have received several letters from his Bank where he made a deposit of $3.5MIllion before his death with his family, the bank has asked me to provide his next of kin or any of his relatives who can make claim to his funds or it will be confiscated by the bank,as i could not locate any of his relative hence i contacted you for this claim since you have the same surname with him. Upon your response I will give you the details and procedures.
Thanks,
James Bumah Esq.
He told her that an arrest warrant had been issued for her for non-payment of 2008 IRS fees. He said her house would be seized along with her car. The man told her to go to the bank and withdraw $5,000.00 and wire the money to an address he would provide after she had the money.
My Aunt got out her Income Tax and read everything; but, she was so frightened that she actually went to the Bank and withdrew $5,000.00. Thank God that she did not call the man back or send the money. She called every IRS office in North Louisiana and they all told her to make an appointment to come in. The IRS personnel also told her to NOT comply with the stranger on the phone. I could hug and kiss every IRS employee that had contact with my Aunt.
My Aunt had colon cancer surgery and chemotherapy in 2008 and actually had filed for an extension on her Income Tax because of her illness. When she did file her taxes, she received a letter than she had been granted a hardship waiver and owed no fees. At first, I thought this was ironic that he chose 2008 - or was it ??
She returned to the Bank on Thursday to deposit the $5,000.00. An employee commented that she "just saw you yesterday" and my Aunt told her about the fake IRS caller. The Bank employee also cautioned her about telephone scammers.
I saw a report on t.v. the other night about the fake IRS agents and I will make a point of telling my Aunt if I see any other reports.
I have not called, but I am certain of this being a scam.

Called claiming I won sweepstakes, obviously a Jamaican accent.
As he talked, we googled the phone # and information, learning this was a scam.....I read to the person what I found about the scam and told him to lose my #. He responded with extremely vulgar language....and I hung up...he called back and left an even MORE vulgar message.
The name they gave us was David Richmond.
I did not make call.
Calls from Texas at 469-223-4338 and calls from New York at 607-385-2067. They both start with an automated message saying you could lower your interest rate and credit card debt. I have gone through to a representative a few times. Every time, I ask them to remove me from the calling list, and they immediately hang up on me. It is happened every time. One time, I asked them what they needed, and they ask for social security number and date of birth.
