Begging Email or a Scam?? You decide

Hello all,

I am emailing everyone either on my emailing list or those who have sent me emails.

I keep reading that scammers and ripoff merchants are making thousands of dollars every day from the internet. I cannot believe that people out there are prepared to send money to these scammers but ignore people like myself who are asking for help via emails.

I have been sending my help email to everyone from whom I receive an email or those on my mailing list asking for assistance. So far I have only had one response so I am still in the same situation. Yet the scammers and rip off merchants are still making huge amounts from the internet but my plea for genuine help is either overlooked or ignored.

So I am now resending the email to everyone hoping that some help and support will be received and I can get my life back to normal. I need your help. I am suffering a very serious cash flow problem which has left me in a very bad situation where I am facing foreclosure and have already had my car repossessed. You can check out my story on this web page

I am asking each of you who has received this email to make a donation to me of between $1 and $5 (or between 1 and 5 of your countries unit of currency) to assist me at this time. I am quite sure that none of you will miss such a small amount but if some of you respond then it will help me get back on track with my life which is certainly facing a serious crisis at the moment.

If you are in a position where you feel you can make a larger donation to help me out then please feel free to make whatever contribution you believe will assist me.

You can either send the money to me by mail(cash, money order, cheque) or deposit it in my Paypal account. If you are paying through Paypal you can make the payment through the Paypal payment link on the webpage listed above.

I thank you all in advance for your help. If you are sending me your donation by mail please email me so I can watch out for your letter. If you make a deposit into my Paypal account Paypal will inform me and I will send you a thank you email and keep you informed of my circumstances.

Regards to you all,

John

PS This is not a scam but a genuine plea for help. I am looking forward to some help and assistance from some of you.
