a little 9-year old girl is crying out for our help

Dear Friends, a little 9-year old girl is crying out for our help. Olga is sick with cancer and urgently needs 100,000 Euro for bone marrow transplantation. Her parents do not have this money, but hope that kind and mercifull people somewhere in the world still exist.

In order to continue her life, a little 9-year old Ukrainian girl Olga Netyukhailo desperately and urgently needs your help.

Olga was diagnosed Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (blood cancer) and currently needs 100 000 Euros for bone marrow transplantation from unrelated donor.

This type of surgery cannot be made in Ukraine, therefore, Olga's parents brought a girl to Israel. Olga is hospitalized in "Hadassah" hospital (Jerusalem) and is staying there since December 2008. During these 3 month girl has been prepared for surgery - getting chemotherapy and waited for remission. But in addition to cancer, it was discovered that Olga's lungs are infected with fungus, which makes the treatment more complicated.

Probably a scam

1) Ukraine has state provided health insurance
2) Bone marrow transplants are done in the Ukraine, see http://www.umj.com.ua/eng/institute/362/.

Hold on to your good earned money.

I got a scam from a fellow plant friend here in the valley

I got a scam from a fellow plant friend here in the valley. I got a email from him, telling me he was in England on Vacation and some one stole his money and cards and etc. And was seeking help from friends back in the states to help me pay his $1,200 motel bill and other things, plus needed money to fly home back to the states.

I emailed him and at first got no answer, but in a week or so he responded back. Some one in Europe had actually take over his hotmail account and changed the password so even he could not get in. But in time Hotmail fixed things and he emailed about what happened.

Like this post, it smelled of a scam, one sees so many of them every day, they just have a feel about them.

With this friend, you know he most likely could of had his cards blocked and gotten money from a bank or something, and if traveler checks, had them replaced. One has to just use a bit of logic to see their scams. Then you can look at their odd wording and sentence structure and miss spelled words, it is normally a dead give away.
