I am currently being hounded by family members (many of whom probably dont have my best interest at heart), they call me because they need to "finalize" my grandfathers death and need my birth certificate and my recently deceased mothers death certificate, also they want me to grant a lawyer power of attorney so they can finish this "complicated" (their words) process up. I'm an American citizen, I know little of Polish laws regarding death. As far as I know, i was not mentioned in the will but some of these family members are saying I will receive money if i do this but when i say I dont want anything, they say "well, will you just make a letter that you renounce then".. I dont even know what is going on and to renounce what.. After I said no, I have enough. They had a lawyer call me asking for the same info. Can someone please explain is this normal for finalizing a Polish citizens death, or is this some sort of scam to screw me over somehow (impose debt on me, etc).
