Back in the 80s when I was in the bank, we would regularly have customers bring in snail mail 419 letters, only became more widespread with email.
I worked in Balwyn, which was fairly affluent, and the scammers would target areas like that 'cause they knew there are always a few people who are rich, dumb and greedy!

I've never received one in the Snail Mail though.
But we don't have a mailbox either.
My home mailing address is c/o the post office.

Adrian, if someone was to truly leave you several million dollars their solicitor or representative would make a personal visit, not leave it up to the mail.
