Hi fellow geeks
I got a begging letter email last night from a lady wanting me to 'donate my time and serivces' to her mum as she was 'ill' and that she already forked out for a veune and food for her stepdads birthday so wanted free services for her mum to 'make her feel better'.
The email was A4 assey of what my partner and I could only discribe as emotional blackmail and left both of us very uncomfortable and upset.
I Also have the medical condition (it is not life threatening or terminal) the woman was refering to in the email and I would never dream of asking for free services on the back of having it and felt the woman was being cheeky and rude.
I have not replied to the email and have no intention to do so.
I support local charites and donate vouchers for service to charity fundrasiers so I'm by no way mean with my time.
Has anyone else experienced this? If so didi you just not reply or did you reply to them?
many thanks
