Dear Mr. Lee Shau-Kee;,
Greetings from USA. It is with the utmost respect that I write to you. I have read of your success and generosity. I just wanted to let you know I received and email from some scammers (I'm sure) who are using your name to promise me a donation of 1,600,000.00. I'm 58 years old and I've seen a lot of scams in my time. At first I thought it was for my education since I was one of the unfortunate people that suffered great loss through Corinthian Colleges fraudulent activities, then I saw the amount promised. I hate to see your name used in this type of scam. Dont misunderstand me, like most people I would have loved for it to be true, but most people also know that philanthropists such as yourself, usually try to help out communities, schools or businesses, not individuals. I will attempt to paste a copy of the email into this correspondence and I hope you are able to find the person or persons who are using your name like this. I wish you all the best. Sincerely, Diane Young Please call or email me if I can be of further assistance in this matter. Here is a copy of the email
