Ummmmm... I'm going to go with 'AFFIRMATIVE'.

(If 70,000 labels with 'Daily Orphanage Center' isn't a big enough red flag... the 'I will like to...' finishes it off.... [Wink] )

I concur with Jon, but I would quote it anyway - after they supply me with all of their contact information.

I wouldn't waste my time on anything that has to do with an email asking me to quote on anything about saving/helping/feeding the children/orphans.

Mr Fred Hitches is the exact name of the one who wanted a lot of banners from me last month! Small world!

It would be cool to get a LOT of stolen credit card #s from these scammers if there was a reward for 'em...
