Dear Sir/Ma'am:

I'm prister obligado medrano, of legal age, married and a resident of Zone 5, Macanaya, Aparri, Cagayan 3515 Philippines.

On the 29th of October 2013, I have this transaction to a certain Doc Leo Del Rosario Claiming to be a Missionary of God in Benin and wanted to sell his Toyota Grandia Car here in the Philippines at a low price and rush sale amounting to 120,000 pesos. At that time i was in search for a car to buy at www.sulit.com and it so happen that his car fitted to the one i'm looking for. He demanded then a show money to prove that i'm a serious buyer. He told me to make transaction with western union sending money to any name that i like and after that i'll email the receipt which i did at USSC Western Union Bonifacio st. Tuguegarao City but i covered the MTCN and the question and answer before scanning and sending it to his yahoo messenger [email protected]. The recievers name is Maricel Serona Medrano, my wife who is here in the Philippines also and if the car will be delivered by his caretaker Raul Aguaviva ([email protected]) the following day i will then transfer the amount to his name (Leo Del Rosario).
I have this notion that my money would be safe since he doesn't know the mtcn and question and answer and considering that he is not the recipient but i was wrong. He was able to get the amount and i strongly suspect that there is someone in your company maybe an agent of yours in Benin who is his conspirator or maybe that agent is the one who personally withdrew the money because he is Doc leo or raul aguaviva.
this incident caused to much trouble on me that it took three months for me to mentally recover thats why its only now that i am bringing this problem out. AS if it was the end of the world for me that time that my money was taken by a culprit from a very reliable money transfer institution providing maximum security to his customers which I, my family, friends and colleauges now doubt. The amount was just borrowed by me in a lending institution and i am now in the burden of paying it with interest without the desired return of investment for me.
It just take an hour for the perpetrator to take the money from your institution from the time i made the transaction with you. How did this happen? they do not know the mtcn, question and answer, he/she/they are not the recipient and yet they were able to get the money from you!
i thought those that receives money will be thoroughly investigated before taking money consignments from you, their identities will be checked, identification cards will be presented and other supporting documents, isn't it?
may i sir/ma'am request or say demand as a customer an explanation, investigation or any other action deemed necessary with the hope on my side that i would be able to retrieve what was lost/taken from me.

Thanks and hoping for your immediate response to this matter.

Respectfully yours,

Prister Obligado Medrano
