Hunny Scam, Scam, Scam. If anyone want to give it to charities nobody can't stopped. if that person have so much money. they have enough intelligent to know how to do it, like he or she enough to created this email system to get your personal information. Please never give your personal information to those scam People. Stay way and deleted all email's that contain those statements. Net also, false web sites. always search before you purchase anything. don't trust anything that will ask you for your personal information. that called Black Market. They will take your information and they will create a false documentation to get in to the USA or other Countries.
Good Luck!!!

It is probably a sham. If it is a real charity, it will have financial statements available for you to look at. If it doesn't, it's just some people begging for money, and nine out of ten times this means it is not legitimate. What is so special about THIS dying man? If you want to help someone, give your money to a legitimate charity that does not waste most of it. These are easy to find on line.
This site: http://www.charitynavigator.org/
will enable you to research how much of each dollar donated actually goes to the cause you thought you were giving too.
Please be careful, there are a lot of people out there who will tell any kind of tale to seperate you from your money!

Just think why would a stranger want to give you money ?first they will ask you to open an a/c with some intial deposit, then some money for documentation and vanish.We have a proverb in India " where there are misers , cheaters will not starve". Why would a diering man think of you.If he has nochildren atleast he has neighbours - his barber, his postman,his servent- why he should take sevices an advocate if everything isa legal and honest.(You will notice that appeal comes from an advocate ) Only income from your sweat and hard work will help you.Your wush to have short cut to money will put you in trouble.Report such messages as spam and block their mails.

It's almost certainly a scam. Do you know the man?
Why were you chosen?
Why doesn't he send it to charity himself?
Is Nigeria involved?
Is it a ridiculously high amount of money?
If the man is your grandfather, and there are no other living relatives, and he is in the same state as you, and the money is reasonably what you might expect him to possess, then no scam
Otherwise - scam - forget it - but report it first.

If you do not check a company before purchasing a product or service from it, you could lose your money, time and credibility. Some widely used resources are the Better Business Bureau (www.bbb.org) and the national fraud center (www.fraud.org).
These days, you can easily find out more about a company using the Internet in a few minutes. From a company's website, you can get details about its ownership, how old the company really is and feedback from the company's customers.

It is easy that you ask a person who represents him wire money through the Western Union and then 10 minutes you can receive your fresh cash but do not give him more than your address and phone number not your cell phone.Let's see about it.Do not give and ID,SSI or any idenity because, he or she can wipe out your saving and steel your idenity. Watch out too many ugly people out there.He may ask you to send money to the terrorism organization.

How do you know this man? How did he choose you ?
It sounds a little strange,if not strings attached now perhaps later.If it sounds too good to be true then it probably is.Take care ,the only sure way is to talk to the police about it.Id be leery myself,if this person is a stranger.

Anyone that you dont know sending you an e-mail with anything that has to do with money is a scam artist.
