For the past 2-3 months, I've been getting mail from companies that want to give me money in trade for some settlement or structured payout.  I have gotten no settlement or structured payout.  Apparently my name is on some list somewhere, but I don't understand for what.

TIA

Just probably fishing for personal information or once they hook you start off with some...send us XX and we can get started on your case

I will buy you out - please send me your SSN and bank account details and I'll send you the money.
