Default Annoying letters asking for money - stop

Does everyone get these scam letters? What do you do with them? I usually just automatically delete them out of my junk mail.

I'm getting very tired of them if you know anyone working in this area please tell them we don't believe them and stop appealing to our feel sorry for me/her sense. The wording on the letters is usually similar with just a minor change of place and person!

I don't mind helping a genuine cause like sending aid to a cyclone ravaged country etc or helping find a cure for MS or diabetes, but this stuff has been circulating for some time now and I 'm sure they keep doing it because there are gullible people out there who keep parting with their money.

c&p from my mail today: it did include a website and yes I could pay by paypal too.
Bratu Georgiana was born on October The 12th 1997 in Bucharest, being brought to this world as a wonder to her parents, as she is their first and only child . But this wonder did not last very much because Georgiana was born with a serious handicap that she has been struggling with since her birth. Now she has no more strenght to go on by herself and the financial impossibility of her parents, of trying to help her to take all the necessary treatments on time, have worsen the little girl's health state. Georgiana's last chance is a surgery in China. The costs of this surgery rise up to over 100.000 Euro, including the treatment and the jurney to China.


Make payments with PayPal - it's fast, free and secure!

Fate made it possible for the girl's family to be unfortunate, as they have no place to live. They survive in an abandoned building, from where they can be evacuated in any moment, and the girl's mother, Bratu Simona has a handicap at her leg, the only capable of working for the family being the father, who struggles and works occasionally where he can. So, let's try to do something for her. And if we don't have a financial possibility in order to help, let's at least pray for her and try to encourage the ones that were blessed by God with a financial potential, to give a helping hand to such a fragile life, and not allow the light from this family fade away. All over the world, there are a lot of people that die in accidents or unexpected situations that no one could predict, but now WE CAN DO SOMETHING TO PREVENT A MISFORTUNE, WE CAN SAVE A LIFE, this is a chance that doesn't come our way daily.

I don't believe it, do you?

Well you should never pay in charity, unless you know where the money is going.
