Harold Diamond Lottery Donation Scam

I was contacted in the last 48 hours by a person co opting Mr. Diamonds picture and background on the site formerly known as Twitter.
I was a private investigator for 16 years so proceeded carefully.
The current offer is to help pay off your credit cards.
Ironically I wasn't asked to send money, but received the routing # & account number to transfer $500 into my account!
Then I was asked to contribute to charities so I did some research & discovered the scam.
Time will tell if the deposit sticks. That would be a twist if I get to keep the bait.
Btw, I saved their bank info

This the scam I received:

I am a victim. I gave them my name address and phone number. Then "Harold" said I can to contact his bank and open an account with that bank before I could get the money this is the address mrharoldd93@gmail.com.
Luckily I didn't go any further. I thought to look into a little more because I have 3 kids that are 2,4 and 6 and I'm struggling as it is. I would do everything if someone took any of my money.
I live paycheck to paycheck. Every penny counts. He said I would get $12.5 million USD.
Thank you everyone for sharing your stories. I would have went forward with it if it wasnt for all your info.

I received a email from Mr. Harold Diamond in 2016. He gave me a lawyer located in Italy.Since 2017,I have been paying numerous fees until I emailed this bank and the lawyer I had enough.
this scam has cost me 3 closed bank accounts and They still believe the last account can be reopened. I feel betrayed, hurt and a foolish woman to believe God had redeemed me for my past mistakes I made in my younger days.
I pray my family and God will forgive me and one day I will be able to forgive myself.
Today I said No MORE. THAT I finally had Enough. And I felt a Great weight Off of Me because I'M Free.
I'm a witness. I got away once. But I fell for the lie and it bounded me. In So many ways but I only lost some of my monies and NOT my life and Soul
I owe monies to people who sent me monies to help me pay those fees but with the help of God I will repay those people back because they were lied to also by the same person who lied to me too.
Besides that bank and that lawyer, you're the only ones I admitted this truth out loud. Not even my family knows as of yet.Give me strength My Lord to tell them and I pray they show me compassion because I hurt so bad.

I have received an email claiming to be from Harold Diamond,I have been asked to send over $500 to Turkey

I have received an email as well offering me 4 million.
