EMAIL FRAUD WARNING

Names can be misused by others for illegitimate purposes. In particular members of chambers are aware of a number of bogus emails, letters and faxes having been received by individuals in many parts of the world, falsely claiming to be from an individual listed on this website.

For example, some such messages indicate that the addressee of the email/letter has inherited a substantial sum of money, and go on to ask the recipient for personal information and/or money. Communications of this type appear to be part of a scam being orchestrated by someone using those listed on this websites name illegally and without authorisation. This has been reported to the police when appropriate and they are taking steps to try to prevent the illegitimate use of that persons name.  The communications are often in the form of emails, or sometimes letters, and they sometimes use the name of those listed on this website. They are likely to be linked to organised fraud.

If you have received such a communication it is strongly advised that you just ignore it, and do not respond to it or communicate further with the person who sent the email/letter to you.
