To all students, please be careful about sending money to anyone who asks online.

Thanks,

This is just a variation of an old chain letter scam. People who think this would work should first read the following warning from truthorfiction.com:

http://www.truthorfiction.com/rumors/c/chainletter.htm

From the website: "The U.S. Postal Service says this is nothing more than a chain letter scheme, which not only doesn't work, but if you use the mail for perpetuating it, you're violating the law."

It's just plain foolish to post one's name and address on the web in multiple places just on the hopes someone will be dumb enough to send you a buck.

Here's for hoping all see the value of old-fashioned hard work!
Sincerely,
Teacher Dian
