    BBB Investigation Results:
    In July 2020, BBB investigated John Bothwell Law business practices due to complaints submitted to BBB. Consumers advised that they had been contacted through postal mail regarding a $9,000,900 inheritance from a distant relative. They were requested to contact John Bothwell Law to submit personal information to a them in order to release funds. 10% of the funds were required to be donated to charity and the remaining 90% divided between the consumer and the company.

    On July 30 2020 BBB checked the website johnbothwellca.com to determine when it was created and where it was registered. The website was created in May of 2020 and is registered in Panama. An online search found that there is a legal office with an identical name in St Catherines ON, however they are not affiliated.

    Due to the information above BBB believes that the genuine John Bothwell Law has been impersonated by an individual perpetrating an inheritance scam.

    BBB suggests consumers exercise extreme caution when responding to unsolicited mail regarding lottery, sweepstakes, inheritance, and foreign money offers.

    BBB Tips:
    - Beware of persons looking for a trustee or heir. Legitimate estates do not solicit in this manner.
    - Beware of tragic deaths and persons looking for help moving a large sum of money.
    - Discard any mailing offering a percentage of a fortune for doing little else than providing banking details.

    If you believe you have been a victim of an inheritance or foreign money scam, you may wish to file a complaint with BBB, the Canadian Anti- Fraud Centre, and BBB Scam Tracker
