This week Electronic Frontiers Georgia (EFGA) found donations in our mailbox for the first time. I'd like to thank those of you who have sent us your support. As you know, EFGA has no endowment or source of income.

I was rather surprised when I received a plea for donations from these people via my subscription to a suicide survivors mailing list. Likewise when my 10 year old daughter mentioned receiving one through her 4H Club mailing list. Upon asking others at work, I found that these people have been sending their requests to millions of people, through every conceivable internet forum, and that quite a few of the recipients had been taken in, and sent them donations. In the interests of stopping this obvious scam, I have founded a group dedicated to wiping out this kind of fraud on the internet, starting with the scum at the EFGA. If you are interested in contributing to our effort, send donations to: Electronic Fraud Fighters (EFF) Box 281, Bienfait, Saskatchewan CANADA S0C 0M0 or email me at: TruthMistress <tm@dev.null>

If we raise $2,000 we will be getting a new server. If we raise $900, we will be doing upgrades on the current machine.

The address again is

Electronic Frontiers Georgia Suite A-205 4780 Ashford Dunwoody Road Atlanta, GA 30338
