No, that would be fraud if your only connection to the estate is by virtue of having the same name as a deceased heir.

You should also be aware of a common scenario used by internet scammers. They say a deceased person has the same last name as the email recipient and entice them into sending money to procure legal documents. However, there's no inheritence, it's all a scam set up to steal your money.

How can someone claim his right of inheritance?

This question deems the question of "right of inheritance." If an estate document gives an inheritance to someone then they are entitled to that inheritance by virtue of estate law. If this has not taken place an individual can contest the will by virtue of not receiving and inheritance that is mentioned in the estate documents. However is someone is omitted from an inheritance only the court can determine if an individual has a right to an inheritance. In order to determine this one must contest the will in the county where the deceased resided and await a hearing to determine if the contesting has any merit. Individuals have the right to leave an inheritance to anyone they choose and omit anyone they choose. Sometimes being omitted was done in error which by contesting may rectify the situation.
