I know all about the "rich African needs to use your bank account" scams, but I've just received a hand-written appeal for school fees purporting to be from a 15 year old girl in Uganda. It contains a newspaper article about her "uncle" who was mauled by a crocodile and therefore unable to support her family, and a copy of a school report. I've no idea how she can have got hold of my address. Anyone else received a similar letter? Am I being heartless chucking it in the bin?
