Default Is This Fraud?

I have responded to the letter found below and have built up a stack of e-mails from this guy and have given him a limited amount of info about myself, in the second e-mail he links you to a banking site that looks quite real (Brown Shipley Private Banking : Senior Management Team) and the lawyer that gets solicited is also found on a legitimate law search site.....

Good day,

I am Tony Hurley, a staff of BROWN SHIPLEY PRIVATE BANK UK.I am contacting you
in respect to US$15 Million deposited with our private bank whose original
depositor died in mid 2003, In line with our internal processes for account
holders who have passed away, we instituted our own investigations in
good fate
to determine who should have right to claim the estate. This investigation has
for the past years been unfruitful. We have scanned every continent and used
our private investigation affiliate companies to get to the root of
the problem
to no avail.
The bank will by the end of its financial year in 2007 broadcast a request for
statements of claims, failing to receive viable claims they will probably
revert the deposit back to BROWN SHIPLEY BANK accounting system. The world of
private banking especially is fraught with huge rewards for those who occupy
certain offices and oversee certain portfolios. As a matter of fact,
my present
official capacity as the Head of private banking sector dictates that I am the
only party to supervise the investigation in relation to the deposit and the
beneficiary of the
deposit.
My proposal: I am prepared to nominate you as the next of kin and have them
release the deposit to you. We share the proceeds 50/50.

Awaiting your immediate response.

Sincerely,
Tony Hurley

The proposal is illegal any way. You will be involved in a fraud case if you accept to pretent next of kin of a non-relative person.
Stop contacting with the scam. He uses real names to make you feel that he is telling the truth.
