please re write this question so that we can understand what you are trying to ask us because this does not make any sense. Are you trying to say:
If someone offers you a certain amount of money to use your name would you let them do it?

Like in "The Adventure of the Three Garridebs?" by Conan Doyle?
When an old eccentric man received a letter, saying that he could
receive the third part of 15 million dollars if he and the writer of
the letter can find the third name with the similar name? Apparently some millionaire died, who had the name Garrideb, and bequest his money to three men of similar name if they can find each other.
Is this the thing you are asking about?
Well, in the book it was fraud. The man who pretended to be Garrideb, and looking for other two hears, was a counterfeiter. He was after the press to make false money, which was hidden in the room. The old man never went out, so the criminal invented the story about millions, to send the old man out looking for a namesake.
The old man was so shaken, when the fraud was discovered, that he became mad.
Decide for yourself.

That would depend on who's sharing who's money...if he wants to share his money with me...GREAT!!!
If he wants me to share my money with him, he better have some great collateral or family jewels for collateral.
Seriously though, if this is because you got an email from Algeria or Russia or someplace far away claiming someone with your family name has died and has billions of dollars and all you have to do to claim it is send them all your personal information, social security #, bank information, mother's maiden name, etc. then DON"T DO IT!! This scam has been going around for years! You'll end up with less than nothing. They'll either empty your bank account, set up fake accounts in your name, send you a fake check which you'll cash & it will be returned as fraudulant...if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

Say that any money you have is for your children's upbringing and for small regular donations to registered charities and humanitarian organisations like: "The Red Crescent", "The Red Cross", "Amnesty International"(helps prisoners of conscience), "The World Wildlife Fund" or "Greenpeace".

If someone asked him ? (who is him?)
Share money because of your name ? Why would someone be asked to share $$ because of their name ?
But if anyone asked to share my $$ because of my name or their name,
I would fall out my chair laughing.
They would not see 1 penny, oh, OK . . . but just 1 penny.
The question is very confusing, please try again . . .

Could you please rephrase the question? Does this mean that a person X asks a person Y to lend him some money, saying that 'you' (person Z) will guarantee the loan, but X doesnt ask your prior permission to mention Z as guarantor?

Plainly it's some sort of (totally incomprehensible) scam.
