Scam Money Transfers: David Epsteine - Sarah's Plight

Scams: "Her name is Sarah she's an infant age 14 month Her parents and family were civilians killed  in the same gas explosion fire that burned Sarah."
From "
David Epsteine"
My name is David Epsteine, I am an attorney, and a businessman, I deal in the importation and exportation of foodstuff, medical supplies and many other things that are highly needed in impoverage nations like Poland, western and eastern Africa... ...while trying to assure of the important/urgency of Sarah's matter and that this is not a joke,scam,or hoax,and before we get into the most important matter in my life right now.

Did you receive an email from a "David Epsteine" who  says to contact yyy and

"My name is David Epsteine, I am an attorney, and a businessman, I deal in the importation and exportation of foodstuff, medical supplies and many other things that are highly needed in impoverage nations like Poland, western and eastern Africa... ...while trying to assure of the important/urgency of Sarah's matter and that this is not a joke,scam,or hoax,and before we get into the most important matter in my life right now." 

The scammer behind this is the worst type of scum alive, using a fraud about a nonexistent suffering child to try to steal your money. This is despicable.  It's a pity that the U.S. military can't be sent in to take this scumbag out with a cruise missile.

David Epsteine (not his real name) hopes to con you into sending money for nonexistent surgeries for a nonexistent child. 

Notice (highlighted below) some of the other obvious signs that this is a scam are poor spelling (considering he claims to be a lawyer and a businessman, he certainly ought to be able to spoell better than this; but of course an uneducated scammer can't), use of free Yahoo/Hotmail/etc email accounts, proposals that make no sense, etc.:

Dear All,

My name is David Epsteine, I am an attorney, and a businessman, I deal in the importation and exportation of foodstuff, medical supplies and many other things that are highly needed in impoverage nations like Poland, western and eastern Africa, and some of the war stricken and third world nations.

I didn't write you this letter to talk about myself or to invite you to any business ventures, I was attempting to introduce myself to you so that you may have some sort of view of who I am, while trying to assure of the important/urgency of Sarah's matter and that  this is not a joke,scam,or hoax,and before we get into the most important matter in my life right now. I just want you to give me a little bit of your time and some of your kindness please. Thank you.

If you are able to see the photo above, I apologize, but Her name is Sarah she's an infant age 14 month Her parents and family were civilians killed  in the same gas explosion fire that burned Sarah.

Sarah came out of a raging fire alive, and has to fight for her life and a not so normal future,

I met her one month after arriving here in Cotonuo,I had so many questions but I realized that it really didn't matter who was responsible or how it happened ,what mattered is that she is alive and has to stay alive and continue on in this life as a human being. This little girl is suffering and cries herself to sleep every day she is taking a series of risky medications and has a poor appetite and health too, and I would love to do more for her but;  I DONT HAVE ENOUGH MONEY  TO PAY THE ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS , THERE IS ONLY ONE WAY TO SAVE HER. AND THAT IS A SERIES OF OPERATIONS, I CONTACTED AOL, ZDNET AND MANY OTHERS SADDLY,.

AOL AND ZDNET ARE THE ONLY ONES TO RESPNOND AND HAVE AGREED TO HELP US. THE ONLY WAY THAT THEY CHOSED TO OFFER THEIR SERVICES TO  US IS THIS WAY FOR EXAMPLE=, I SEND THIS EMAIL TO YOU AND YOU SEND IT TO OTHER PEOPLE, AOL WILL TRACK THIS EMAIL AND COUNT HOW MANY PEOPLE GET IT.

EVERY PERSON THAT OPENS THIS EMAIL AND SENDS IT TO AT LEAST 3 OTHER PEOPLE WILL GIVE US 32 CENTS,THERE ARE A LOT OF THINGS THAT I WANTED TO SAY TO AOL BUT I BELEAVE THAT I DON'T HAVE TO BEG,ARGUE OR PLEAD AND TRY TO CONVINCE ANY REAL CHRISTIANS,ITS ALL IN GOD'S HAND,IM DOING WHAT MY HEART PUSHES ME TO DO,ICAN SAY MANY MORE THINGS THAT WILL SURELY AFFECT YOU BUT TALKING AND WRITING IS ONE THING,SAVING HER LIFE AND HELPING HER IS ANOTHER,  PLEASE HELP US I BELEAVE THAT WE CAN DO THIS OURSELVES. THAT IS WHY I AM ASKING YOU TO ASSIST ME/SARAH PLEASE.

There is not much that I can say, this girl needs help, she needs our help, I know this world and the so many corrupt, foul practices just to get someone's money, but in this case it is very bad, to even assume that this child will not receive the help that she deserves and needs so badly just because of some other bad apples;. it s painful, that is why I am here I want to create awareness to help her. I'm not a fund raiser and to get those other orgs will take time and money, I want to act immediately now!

I just don't know what to say.

I want you to just look at her profile, and ask yourself - is this the profile of a normal 14 month old infant?

She is 14 months old and she has burnt skin all over her body, damage facial bones (as a result of very high temperature her facial bone melted).  She does not have an ear on the right side of her face. She is in a hospital in cotonuo .  She still has to go through many more surgeries and then through a long rehab her condition is indeed, grave and SHE has suffered some brain damages.

A 14 month old baby?

The estimated cost of the surgeries/caretaking and other medical treatment is one hundred and fifty thousand us dollars.  Can we just start with this child Take another look at her and ask yourself can I be exploiting her, am, I so GODLESS that I can use this child's problems/situations to cash in on profits, or some other vain full gain, ask yourself can you go to visit a child in this condition and go home everyday and some how put her at the back of your mind and do nothing? I cant,Im not related to her, and before our meeting - I did not know her, and since our meeting I've been doing everything that I can to help. I am not her lawyer or anything, I am more than a concerned Christian, I am a servant of humanity, and I feel that I can at least bring enough public attention to her without the media's vulture claws, clutching her to feed them selves.

THE TOTAL AMOUNT  IS senenteen thousand dollars AND ALL THAT IM ASKING FOR IS WHAT EVER YOU CAN GIVE,IF WE CAN PAY FOR PART OF HER SURGERIES,IT'S A STEP.IF YOU ARE NOT ABLE TO INCLUDE THIS AS ONE OF YOUR OBLIGATIONS,THEN PLEASE JUST PRAY FOR HER.BUT IF YOU CAN OFFER ANY HELP,,,,PLEASE CONTACT ME AT

solomandepsteine@live.com or contact cntbnkofnig@yahoo.com

                                                    Thank you
