Last year i was dumb enough to make a small donation to a person claiming that they needed stamp collecting materials for a school project. i had met the person via Facebook and sent a very small donation so no big loss.
today i received an email that was WORD FOR WORD the same message except from another person... if you get this on Facebook or via Email DO NOT SEND THEM ANYTHING..
here is the contents of the email

Hello dear friends!
My name is Vladimir, I live in Russia, in Volgograd. Since childhood, fond of collecting stamps and other philatelic materials. I am currently with a group of like-minded people create the Children's Center of philately. Our goal - to captivate as many children aged 10 to 15 years collecting, and thus minimize the deleterious effects on children of negative social factors. We plan to form a set consisting of stamps, postal envelopes, tweezers, albums for stamps, philatelic literature, and give them to participants in our center for the formation of interest in philately. Unfortunately, their own funds to purchase the required number of philatelic materials we have enough. Would be very grateful if you could give us all possible assistance in acquisition of sets for young philatelists. Gratefully accept any postage, guards envelopes, stamp-album, tweezers, magazines and any other materials on philately, which you can send us.
In addition, we plan to build sets of postage stamps, envelopes and other philatelic materials and send them to institutions for children without parental care. Thus, children will feel cared for adults and will have the opportunity to expand horizons and a new exciting hobby.
If you accept the generous help, the topic and the amount of materials sent to us will be left to your kind decision.
Dear friends and colleagues! If you find it possible to respond to our request, we ask you to sent us letters and packages necessary to specify an email address for feedback. We will certainly notify you that, in what kind of child care and how much we have sent kits for young collectors, philatelists.
Mailing address: Vladimir Lukin, Anri Barbusa, 8-13, Volgograd, Russia, 400081.
P.S: We also greatly appreciate if you could find it possible to send us the materials and on other types of traditional collectibles such as numismatics, faleristics Bonistics, etc., as well as accessories and appliances in such kinds of collectibles. The thus obtained materials will be sent to the above method, and a report sent to your address.
Thank you very much for your understanding and help!
Success!
Very truly yours, Vladimir!
