We are aware that email correspondence has been sent to members of the public by an individual purporting to be Roger Bull, our Managing Partner, using the email address ‘rogeribull@hotmail.com’. These emails refer to a potential inheritance or investment involving a family member “who lived and passed away in the UK”.
These are phishing emails which aim to persuade recipients to hand over money in order to claim the so-called inheritance.
Burges Salmon LLP, and Roger Bull, have no connection with this correspondence.
We have informed ActionFraud and the Solicitors’ Regulation Authority (SRA) about this fraudulent activity:

If you receive correspondence from this Hotmail address, or from someone appearing to be any of our lawyers in connection with a potential investment, it is important that you take steps to verify this information with Burges Salmon LLP by reliable means or using our web contact form.
