It looks like is asking for somebody to help him buy a war pack for his org.
That's the impression I got.

I really want to hope something got lost in translation, because I cannot imagine the logic behind asking random people to give you money, for nothing in return. If that's the case, which I'm pretty sure it is, then fuck this guy. Does he honestly think he can get 5000 USD worth of donation for just asking?

Judging by how he addressed you, yes.

Seriously get an alt in his Org and call it a 'diplomat'.

Have the diplomat disband his org.

@AntiSqueaker Ok hes doing the Nigerian prince scam and we all know what we should do with Nigerian Prince scams.

To verify his "identity" and that it is not for example a "bot". Please kindly ask him to take a picture of himself with unique picture (say a printed copy of "TEST Squadron Best Squadron" with our logo) <= you can provide a picture of that to him. Say that you will donate Auroras if and only if that picture is shown to you as proof of "good faith".

Result: ???? Trophy Pic Profit.

I once countertrolled a nigerian prince. Requested that they provide me with an armored humvee to meetup with him as well as 40 virgin women with assault rifles as my escort guard. He agreed. Then I requested that he sends me a some of his royal blood in a vial so I can indeed confirm that he is blue blooded...

This is a good point for both ingame and out of game. CIG likely won't put up with the fun CCP allows Eve players to get away with. We'll need to be careful with our trolling.
Maybe they can start with banning people for begging.

I think this guy was being sincere and not trying to scam.

Most likely some young kid, obviously not English speaking, thinking somebody can help his small org acquire an idris.

I guess it was worth a shot, but obviously he was way off.

I don't doubt that he was being sincere. That doesn't mean people want to see it in their inbox.

I got the exact same copy-pasted mail. I think his org has 250~ish members so it not small by any means.
