This post involves an e-mail scam regarding an inheritance topic and for someone to claim a large some of money ($8,500,000)??!!  It has many screenshots to scroll through. It seems to follow a timeline of events or communications between different people that are addressed to the recipient.  If you look closely the people seem to have Asian and British/English names in the United Kingdom area. Likely from fictitious people.  There are multiple names, what seems to be generic forms and information, Money Gram is involved to receive lump sum payments and at the end there are 3 forms to download.

Photo #1 is a scam e-mail posed to be from a Fidelity Life Insurance coverage company with a  Yahoo email account.  As you may notice the title already has a specific quoted amount, normally not mentioned until you start shopping. It also has an unusual font style as well,  the actual email itself is obnoxiously long and never seems to end or fit the screen.  Photo #1 Fidelity Email Scam Photo #2 is the body of the email.
