We would like to bring the notice that several variants of financial scam letters purporting to be authored by high ranking JSF officials are currently in circulation, and may appear on official letterhead containing the JSF logo, or attached a copy of forged identification card purporting to be a high ranking JSF official.
Those letters tell you that a person sharing your family name has died and left behind a vast amount of money.
Contrary to what is stated in these scam letters, e-mails, or phone conversations, JSF does NOT authorize, verify, monitor, or assist in contract or inheritance payments between third parties and/or Governments, nor does it endorse the activities of any bank, financial institution, or other public or private agency.
If you have already received such letters, you are advised to terminate all further contacts with the scammers, and, in the event that you have sent them funds, contact your local law enforcement agency immediately.
