Questions and Answers
I want to know if Borden Costa & Associates LLP & Associates located at bordcostassollp.com is a legit law firm or a scam. Their website address or domain name was registered only 25 days ago and the photos of their attorneys are stock photos used by many other websites. With so many fake law firm websites popping up online in Canada, it is hard to know who to trust. Even the photo of Gilbert Peter Costa, the lead attorney, is a stock photo. If you do not believe me, go to their website and do a Google Image search of the photos of their attorneys and you will see that they are not real attorneys, but just stock photos up for use by anyone.

They are a scam. Received the same 10 million dollar letter about a relative passing without a will who happened to be a client of them. Asked to send money to make the transfer to the USA.
They sent me documents from; Ontario Superior Court of Justice, Red Deer Court House, Order Probate, Sun Life Financial records, Toronto Court House, Canada Trust Transfer Funds Form, and even a accident report. All fake.
I was curious about the letter I received so I researched the names involved. The "client" that died in an accident had the same name as mine. Upon further searching in a local newspaper I found that a person with the same last name was getting married and hisaddress was the same as the Attorney's office that Gilbert Peter Costa was supposedly thepartner at Borden Costa. There is a Jayson Peter Costa that has just been arrested inBakersfield Calif on a real estate scam, along with some others.
I received the same letter
My friend received the same letter from this guy Gilbert Peter Costa from Toronto, Canada. When he was notified a lawyer wanted to contact him, he disappeared.
SCAM I received the letter too. I told them I needed to contact my attorney. They vanished after that….
They are a scam don't go for it they tried to say I had settlement they pray on senior citizens.
I also got the letter about a next of kin dieing 8 years ago with no will. So far I’m playing along because I’ve yet to be asked for any money. I’m so curious as to how the scam plays out. Thy must ask for money or some information along the way.
Don't go for it it's a scam they did the same thing to me.
My parents received the same letter last week. They say the relative who had a 10 million estate died in a car accident 8 years ago. When I looked up his obituary, he actually died in 2008 with his daughter by his side.
I got the same letter with a follow up email. I see several red flags in both the text and the substance. Interested to see what they do now cuz I'm willing to play. I hate bottom feeders!
