Those were the days when we had to deal with the real Rick Ruzzi scammer, a new scam every day for our amusement and that of our readers.
But that was a long time ago.
Ruzzi became a legend, a scammer legend and in the end an undead scammer.
Yes, his excuses were ingenious and he himself seemed a ghost from a bygone era.
But now his son, who is probably also called Rick, comes back – he must be his son, because otherwise Ruzzi would have several hundred mailboxes – and who can blame him, tells the same story as his wayward father.
A few years ago.
As I said, this one has ridden into the eternal scammer grounds.
Despite all the sentimentality, the same applies here: Do not answer, never send documents, these would be used without restraint by the scammers, who make money out of everything, in order to promote other crimes or make them possible in the first place. No matter how hard the scammers push you, do not send a single euro because of customs or transport, the money would be lost. Just put the mail in the bin.

Dear Beneficiary,

have been changed on the basis that the owners have died some time
last two weeks or have given out an authorization note of change of
data. After the investigations, however, it was revealed that there
are Foreigners who are collaborating with Retired Staffs to make these
changes illegally without the knowledge of the Bonifide Benefactors

have forwarded some documents of the funeral service held for you so

the transfer. If proved otherwise by you that you did not die, please
forward to us all the related Benefactors particulars including your.
