Subject: From Mrs. Cindy Esther Chao
I am Mrs. Cindy Esther Chao the wife of late Mr. Richard Chao. I am an
Indonesian American Citizen my husband worked with the Brunei Shell
Petroleum Co Sdn Bhd (BSP) for twenty years before he died in the year
2010.
Since his death I decided not to re-marry or get a child outside my
matrimonial home. When my late husband was alive we deposited the sum
of $5.2 million in a safe place which i will tell you later. The
management just wrote me as the beneficiary to come forward to sign
for the release of this fund or rather issue a letter of authorization
to somebody to receive it on my behalf if I can not come over.
Presently, I’m in a hospital where I have been undergoing treatment
for esophageal cancer. My doctor have told me that I have only a few
months to live. It is my last wish to see this money distributed to
charity organizations, Because my husband relatives and friends have
plundered so much of my wealth since my illness, I cannot live with
the agony of entrusting this huge responsibility to any of them.
Please, I’m seeking for any honest person who will get the Funds. And
use this money to fund the poor, orphanages, widows and charity
organizations.
I took this decision because I don’t have any child that will inherit
this money and I don’t want my husband’s hard earned money to be
misused by his greedy relatives.
I don’t want a situation where this money will be used in an ungodly
manner. Hence the reason for taking this bold decision. I am not
afraid of death hence I know where I am going if i die.
Due to the state of my health. I can not communicate by phone because
my illness have affected my throat. I prefer to communicate by email.
As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact detail`s
of my family lawyer who is conversant with the unclaimed funds and my
presents situation.
Above all, the transfer will follow the normal protocol of funds
transfer,backed up with its papers so that you will not encounter any
difficulties/problem with your Federal Monetary Control authorities.
Contact me with my private email ( [email protected] ).
Thanks
Yours Truly,
Mrs. Cindy Esther Chao.
