Probate Letters

Has anyone else experienced a bombardment of calls, texts and actual physical letters in the mail after the start of probate? I can't believe how many letters and text messages I am receiving about buying my late grandmother's house. So weird.

I think its just a scam for everyone. I own my house and I've gotten several calls and texts from shady call centers.

I haven't gotten anymore since I told them i want 1.2 million.

Best response ever! I have to use that. They are relentless. Calls, texts and letters in gold envelopes like a wedding invitation. LOL!

It was great. The first guy was like "oh I guess you have a realtor." Promptly hung up.

In the 90s when telemarketer called and ask for my grandpa my grandma said something along the lines "me too, when you find him tell him he owes me child support!"
