Hunter Shamatt lost his wallet while he was on a Frontier Airlines flight from Omaha．Upon realizing that his wallet was lost，he contacted the airline to see if anyone had turned it in， but to no avail．Since the wallet contained his ID，a signed paycheck，his debit card，and ＄60 in cash，he "feared the worst"．
    Shortly after the flight，however，Hunter was surprised to receive a package in the mail from an anonymous（匿名的） sender．Inside was his wallet- along with an additional ＄40 in cash． "I rounded your cash up to an even ＄100 so you could celebrate getting your wallet back．Have fun!!!"，read a letter that was enclosed with the package．
    Hunter's mother，Jeannie，posted a photo of the letter to social media in hopes that they would be able to track down the sender and thank him for his kindness．All they could know was that the sender's initials were signed： "T．B"．
    The good sender was later identified as Todd Brown，a father-of-five who was delighted at the chance to "have a little fun" with helping out a hard-working stranger．
    "I saw he was just a kid，20 years old，he had a paycheck in there，so I figured， 'Well，he's doing his best to make ends meet．'" Brown told Yahoo Lifestyle．
    "Hunter was very thankful．He told me he has some student loans and a car payment that he needed to make so the timing was right，" Brown added． "They assumed it was gone forever．So when he opened it，he just started screaming， 'No way!No way!'"
    Brown says that he often tries to do good deeds without any recognition and that's why he neglected to sign his full name on the letter，but Jeannie later insisted on praising the sender on social media．
    "This story is more about restoring faith in people than anything．I personally want to thank Todd Brown for restoring faith that there are amazing people out there and that the world is not as cruel as it's being made out to be．" she wrote on Facebook．
