The message below, which was certainly sent randomly to thousands of people around the world, claims to be from a charitable organization that has a donation for you. In fact, it’s a standard example of a “charity scam” message. The sender is not from a charity — he’s just a scammer trying to pick your pocket by means of the old “advance fee fraud” technique.
