Earthquake and Tsunamis in Indonesia (How we were affected)
Greetings,
My name is Marco Nula; I am a victim of the recent Earthquake followed by
the Tsunami that wrecked our whole society of Banda Aceh Province in Indonesia
resulting in painful death of my Parents.
My Late Father Mr. Alfredo Nula is from Paramaribo in Suriname (South America)
and my Mother from Banda of Aceh Province in Indonesia, they got married
in Suriname because Indonesia like Suriname was a colony of The Netherlands,
but they moved to settle in Indonesia when my Sister and I were born and
because Indonesia has better economy than Suriname, but my Sister and I
was away in School in the Capital Jakarta when this sorrowful incidence
happened to my late parents and all other Families affected by the Quake
and the Tsunamis all around Sumatra and Aceh Province.My Father and Mother
owned a tourist resort and grocery store at No 71 Panglima Polim Street,
Banda Aceh in Indonesia, it was visited by numerous tourists from different
countries on Holidays each year but this tragic and devastating Tsunamis
took the lives of my parents and
many others.
My Late Parents saved much of their money in a Bank in The Netherlands,
not only because we were Dutch Colony but also because we speak Dutch as
an official Language in Suriname, I contacted my Parents Lawyer in Jakarta
and he has confirmed to me that my Parents has the sum of 12 Million United
States Dollars deposited in a Security & Finance Firm in the Netherlands
which will be claimed by me as next of Kin, but he also explained to me
that because I was not nationalized in Netherlands after Suriname got Independence
from the Netherlands I had no permission to settle there in that Country.
We have recovered the corpses of my Late Parents, although private, international
and government aid is coming in, it will not be any where enough to settle
our problems, please I am hereby soliciting for your assistance at clearing
my Late father's money 12 Million United States Dollars deposited in a Security
& Finance Firm in the Netherlands, I have asked the Lawyer to provide me
with all documents, I shall have send them to you when you show sincere
intentions to help me and my Sister, if you are business oriented with experience
in Holiday, Hotel and Resort business or have some idea on how to run a
groceries shop, I am willing to recommit the money for the full benefit
of all (My Sister, you and I) apart from that I shall be willing to give
a negotiable percentage of the money to you otherwise or alternatively,
please contact me on my email address as the telephone system is not functioning
at the moment.(nula_marco@yahoo.co.in )
Thank you, I hope you understand our predicament and come to our
assistance.
Marco Nula
