I want to know if Howard Shindell Law Firm located at howardshindelllawfirm.com is a legit law firm or a scam. Their website address or domain name was registered only 16 days ago, although the website claims the firm started in 1994. With so many fake law firm websites popping up online in Canada, it is hard to know who to trust.

My husband, who is deceased, received an unprofessional letter from Howard shindell law firm stating, blah blah blah, his address in Toronto, postmarked Buffalo,New York, with United States postage. Yes, that’s the ant of money in question, $10,550,300.,00. Also, it is 100% risk free
They send it out with the last name changed to match the person's to whom it is addressed. Obvious scam, but someone is bound to fall for it and has or they wouldn't keep it up. Bad punctuation, capitalization, copy is not even straight on the paper, the bolded recipient's name and "Late" person's name, thrown in. I don't understand why the the postal service can't prosecute. Main scammer is probably in Toronto, but pays people to send out "personalized" letters from all over. Disgusting.
Ire River a letter too and it makes me so mad that these scammers are doing this to people. Why don’t they get a job and quit this. Can’t the FBI look into this and the postal service for working withnthem
Man oh man Bruce A-Z has died so many times in this last 2yrs leaving $10,550,300.00 American highly confidential dollars to our dispare HOGWASH I truly hope NO one falls for this scam What scumbags
Got mine today too $10,550,300.00 I've won the jackpot! Not don't know any Dr. Bruce Stephenson, I do have family in Toronto, but the letter is post marked Buffalo NY. Total scam don't fall for it
I responded, and have already received my share of the 10,000,000! Just kidding. Don't fall for it.
LMAOI warned him this was law enforcement. So idiot sent bogus Canadian Passport. Bingo! Now it entered FBI mail fraud. Cyber Crimes in Buffalo has the IP address.I don't mind stupid criminals just hate being outnumbered!
I just got my letter re Bruce F. Looks like they set up a phony website.
I also received the same letter today! His name was Dr. Bruce Edmondson he also died of Covid 2 yrs ago. I called the number on the letter and he answered but not by Law Firm.He said is this about Dr. Bruce letter you received and I told him yes. He told me that he could not discuss the details on the phone and to contact him by email. Sorry everyone my Dr. Bruce left me 10,550,300.00. It must have gotten interesting. HaHaHa! Such a scam. I wish I knew who to turn him into and I would. Thanks for all the comments!
Got the same letter, Dr. Bruce C.
I also received a letter relating to a $10,000,000 plus life policy with a name on it similar to mine. The policyholder, deceased, listed no beneficiaries. Who initiates a life in’s. policy and doesn’t list a beneficiary? I smell a rat. The letter also states that if I respond and participate in claiming the money the proceeds will be “shared” with the law firm. The firm also states they want 10% of the money to go to charity. If this was legit, the firm couldn’t tell the beneficiary how to “spend” the $. I assume contacting the “firm” will reveal a costly upfront payment procedure with no guarantee of successful results...no guarantee that the $ten million will be successfully collected. Of course, it’s tempting to contact the firm but I don’t want to expose my email address to them.
