British Bond Scam

The scammer calls and falsely claims that you have won a life-interest in a bond issued by a British bank. He states further that monthly income generated by the bond will come to $2,000 to $3,000. The caller says that the bond will be registered in Canada so that it cannot be taxed in the US. You must wire $2500 to have it registered in your name.
