Hello, members of the Vargas clan -
I am not part of your family, but I am the "other user" who Mr. Bogardi referred to in his post above that received the same scam e-mail you are talking about from our budddy Alvin. Let me just echo what is said above: this is an attempt to rip you off, DO NOT RESPOND to this thief! The letter I was sent sounds identical to what you are discussing, except that he substituted my last name and my ancestor's first name (from whom our "cousin Samuel P." was supposedly also descended).
This letter is similar to hundreds that go around the internet claiming there is a fortune waiting if only someone would volunteer their assistance. Let's hope that if no one responds they will leave us alone. Good luck with your searching, everyone....
Steve S.
