This kind of scam is particularly insidious.  That's because it plays on the heartstrings of good honest people who want to help -- to help to correct an injustice.  The people who contributed are not greedy and dishonest folks who know damn well that they don't have an uncle who died in a plane crash who wants them to inherit his millions.  They are not people who want to share in ill-gotten treasure stashed away in a security company locker in by a Nigerian dictator.
 

What's worse, this kind of scam does incalculable damage to  Burma’s democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi, who has been in detention for 15 years at the hands of the evil despicable Burmese government.

Subject: [BurmaCampaign] One day to go until my jump for freedom.

Dear friend

This time tomorrow, I will have completed my Jump for Freedom. A 160 feet bungee jump at the O2 arena in London, to raise money for the Burma Campaign UK to support our campaign to free all political prisoners in Burma.

Please support me in my jump by sponsoring me now at:
http://www.bmycharity.com/V2/jumpforfreedom
<http://www.bmycharity.com/V2/jumpforfreedom>

I am really scared about the jump now. But at the same time looking forward to it and what it represents for my father and all the other political prisoners in Burma.

My father is in jail for trying to get freedom and democracy for his people.

He was arrested over three years ago, at the start of the democracy
uprising, which became known as the “Saffron Revolution”. He is serving a 65 year prison sentence because he wants what you and I want - democracy and freedom in Burma.

I grew up without my father, and now I face the possibility of never seeing him again. I am determined not to let this happen. I know that together, we can work to free the prisoners if we can put enough pressure on the generals, but I need your help.

Please make a donation today – and if you have donated already thank you & please forward this onto friends & family and on my behalf ask them to donate: http://www.bmycharity.com/V2/jumpforfreedom

Thank you for your support,

Wai Hnin
Campaigns Officer at Burma Campaign UK

P.S. Please donate today http://www.bmycharity.com/V2/jumpforfreedom and I will let you know how it went.
