Cruz Law Firm Winnipeg Canada Scam from a Phillip Mann

I received a fax from 778-358-7635 claiming to be a Cruz Law Firm, Winnipeg, Canada, from a Phillip Mann, supposedly partner in said law firm. The scam nnounced 13,030,000 in "United States Dollars" for a deceased resident of Canada.

It amazes how the exchange rate came up with an even number and what worker would have 16,000,000 CN$ in life insurance? The letter goes on to state if not claimed, the money "must be turned over to the property division of the state after 10 years".

Look most Americans know little about Canada but surely most know Canada is divided into provinces not states.
