7. The Foundation of Hope Scam

There are literally thousands of e-mail scams out there, but most of them are very transparent to the untrained eye. The Foundation of Hope e-mail scam is different in that the misleading e-mail is actually very convincing and professional in its appearance; making a heartfelt plea to the mark to donate money for disadvantaged Canadian youth.

The commendable people of scamwarners.org deserve the credit for notifying people of this scam, and a few others like it very similar in its design. The eloquently-written FoH letter itself can be found at http://www.scamwarners.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=266.
