If this letter asks you for personal information or to cash a check for them and then send them money back, it is a scam. It is best to do your research and check with your local police department to determine if it is indeed a scam.
There is such a thing as the Magdala Tower, but no one has inherited it that I've heard of. Send no money!
Type your answer here... Just so you know I recently got a letter regarding this Beranger inheritance/ Tower of Magdala "stuff". My recommendation is to mail it back to Pia with a note saying when you get the inheritance you'll be more than happy to send $ to compensate her as soon as you get yours. I'd say 99.999% scam. Wouldn't you?.my name was changed to bobb when my great grandpa came from france.im the last living heir of barringer .supposedly
