Should I or shouldn't I...

Postby eight6 » Fri Jan 18, 2008 5:23 am

Just received this via e-mail:

[i]Hi,

My name is Elena, I have 31 years and I live in Russian province.

I have 6-years daughter, her father abandoned us and we live with my mother. Recently my mother lost job due to old age and our situation became very difficult.

During last months prices for gas and electricity became very high in our region and we cannot use it to heat our home anymore.

The weather is very cold here already and it becoming colder each day. We very afraid and we don't know what to do.

The only accessible way for us heat our home is to use portable oven which give heat with burning wood. We have many wood in our region and this oven will heat our home all winter for minimal charges.

I work in library and after my job I allowed to use computer. I finded your address in internet and may be you can help us.

We need portable wood burning oven, but we cannot buy it our local market because my salary is little and it is expensive for us. May be you have any portable oven which you don’t use anymore, we will be very grateful to you if you can donate its to us and organize transport of its to our address. This ovens are different, usually they made from cast-iron and weight between 100-150kg.

I hope that you will answer to my letter.

Elena.
Russia.[/i]

WTF...why not just ask for money, like everyone else.

I have a few replies ready, I thought some of you may want to have a say. My best effort so far involves asking Tom Cruise to help.

Hell, shipping on a cast iron wood-burning stove probably exceeds the cost of flying all three of them to Canada and making her your Russian Love Slave errrr...housekeeper.

If you decide to send cash in lieu of the stove (which they are obviously banking on), I will gladly help you with the transaction as I am well versed in international wire transfers. I just need your bank account information.

Yeah, that's pretty much what I would expect.

Choose wisely, eight6.
Rumor has it that Elena ate the last three respondents
