A treasure trove of luxury items from fraudster Melissa Caddick’s stash will soon be auctioned off, including stunning jewellery pieces each worth up to $500,000.
A collection of items will be on sale by Shapiro Auctions in late November and early December, including artwork, coats, handbags and Chanel ballgowns.
Caddick, 49, vanished without a trace on November 12, 2020 after she fleeced $30million from investors, including family and friends.

Sale proceeds will go to Caddick’s Ponzi scheme victims, if her husband Anthony Kolleti doesn’t pursue claims that purses in the collection were his.
The first to go under the hammer will be Caddick’s art collection, which includes Archibald Prize winner John Olsen’s painting ‘Giraffes & Wet Season’ from 2000 – tipped to be worth $25,000, the Sydney Morning Herald reported.
