Received via email:

"*IT'S IMPORTANT THAT YOU CAREFULLY READ THE BELOW MESSAGE IN ENTIRETY & FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS PROVIDED WITHIN TO CLAIM YOUR SETTLEMENT*

We are glad you responded to your notification in a timely manner as this is a very serious matter. Court orders in the below detailed case indicate that you are eligible to receive a restitution payment for one or more of the internet fraud and identity theft schemes you've been a victim of in past times (knowingly or unknowingly).

Case Details

Case No: 8500-8970-3300-2520 on infamous internet fraudsters, Michael Overland and Jonah Bello, have been tried and closed in England after numerous rejected extradition appeals. They were apprehended while trying to flee the UK from federal authorities in an unrelated fraud case during the pandemic. The case was closed based upon the following mandatory terms; I. Court ordered restitution - select offshore private bank accounts recovered from the defendants shall be converted into restitution funds to be remitted to eligible affected victims, II. Time served plus 257 months; court orders reveal.

The aforementioned defendants and their group of co-offenders used over 450 aliases to mask their original identities over the years, which is why you may not be familiar with the real names of the defendants. To that regard, if you are receiving a notification but do not recollect a scam incident or you haven't visibly been affected, it is because you were certainly a victim of identity theft. Records suggest that you have been a victim of identity theft because your contact details and private information were found on several computer devices belonging to the defendants, alongside corresponding bank statements of accounts opened in your name, credit cards issued in your name and loans acquired using your credentials, which will be shared with you upon request, after you have filed a claim. Following court orders, this makes you eligible for restitution up to the amount of Two Million British Pounds for damages caused by these crimes.

During investigation, authorities revealed that the pair operated on an international scale victimizing thousands of individuals and companies from over 15 countries with the bulk of victims residing in Asia, Europe and Australia. They hid a majority of their acquisitions in offshore private bank accounts and properties based in the UK. Based on that revelation, the UK government ordered all court proceedings be held within England where the defendants were apprehended to maintain unitary judgment and integrity in international relations. To avoid unwarranted media attention due to the high profiles of some of the individuals and organizations victimized, the case was tried privately. Because this was privately tried, all victims (including you) were represented by a local court-appointed solicitor.

Yes, I also got this email, but 1st got a phone call from Sweden, asking that I was still waiting for the refund of a scam back a few months ago, by fella named Kevin Butler and what's funny I didn't give my email address.

He also went on to say that they owe me 23000 and the email said they be recover 2 Million in damaged and they will deposit it, and I will need to then pay them 5% fee of the recovered funds.

What a load of bullocks.

Received the same on October 28th to my main email address which weirdly rarely gets spam. It's a very good attempt I must say.
