Michael Torres / TD Bank Canada, ON, Blakes Attorneys Associates. review: Reporting a scam 1

The Bank is TD Bank Canada, ON.

Please do a google search on “info. [protected]@secureddom.net”. I received such a letter shown on this site in the mail. My letter was word for word the same as that posed on this web site - except my deceased relative was "Engr James Keller" and the sender was "Michael Torres". There has already been a complaint filed against this guy “TD Canada Trust Bank — inheritance of $47,500,000.00. I did respond and engage. I went to the location that Michael Torres supplied to show me the funds were real, I noticed that the amount was exactly 45,700,000 USD which I found odd. There was no evidence of interest paid or fees taken which would have made the value a bit different than the exact amount of 45,700,000 USD. I was told that the 45.7 Million had a lien against it of $775,450.00, I pushed back. Michael indicated the attorney involved "[protected]@blakesattorneys-associates.com" was able to reduce it to 575,450 USD and Michael found 275K USD from his resources this left 300,450 USD for me to deliver on. I indicated I would look for 300K USD an amount several hundred USD lower (450 USD), he said that would work. Interesting, Michael authorize an amount which was reduced to satisfy the lien but the lien holders and the attorney (Michael Braxton) were not in that part of the discussion. How can Torres make the reduction in payment OK? Also, this is a Canadian company, Canadian activity, Canadian bank, Canadian Relative - why are the funds all round even numbers in USD? USD to Canadian dollars is 0.75 CAD to 1 USD. I spoke with a couple of people (a lawyer being one) all indicated this was a scam. I went to the Web using “info. [protected]@secureddom.net" as the Google search string and found a discussion which is identical to my experience, down to the letter sent to me. I made Michael Torres aware of what I found (I supplied him the url) - he said he had been a victim of identity fraud before.

Before withdrawing the funds from my IRA I pulled it back. Schwab says the funds are safe the only accounts that Michael may have access to have only $1.00 in them. However, I am out 35K USD right now.
I am keenly interested in posting this for the record. If you can get my 35K back great - but mostly I need to put folks on the alert.
This guy needs to be stopped, the scam is very sophisticated making the victim think there are 3 reputable independent actors (the bank, the attorneys, and Michael).
I stopped responding to Michael yesterday. He keeps trying to reach me.
Thank you
