Good to hear from you. I'm sorry to bother you with this but it is a bad time for me. I traveled to Kyiv center of bone marrow transplant Ukraine) to see my Cousin who is critically ill.she is been diagnosed with (Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia). I was advised that the only way She can survive is by undergoing a BMT (Bone Marrow Transplant)

The estimate for the Transplant is $9,000. I have already spent approx. $6,200 cash towards her treatment so am wondering if you can help me with a loan of $2,500 to make the necessary arrangement for the surgery to be carried out.Your help and support will give her a chance to live a normal life once again. I will surely pay you back as soon as I return. I will appreciate whatever you can help me with.

Please, let me know if you can be of help so I can advise on how to transfer the funds. I’ll be happy to hear from you soon regarding my request and please remember to keep this private.

Kind Regards,

Bill Truong

Since you’re here …
we have a small favour to ask. More people are visting Scamdex and Scamalot than ever but advertising revenues are falling fast and we have no 'product' to sell. And unlike many informational websites, we haven’t put up a paywall or membership barrier – we want to keep our site as open as we can. So you can see why we need to ask for your help. Scamdex/Scamalot websites takes a lot of time, money and hard work to keep running. We do this because we hate to see our fellow humans getting scammed out of their hard-earned money by low-lives.
