Chris Garvin,
Recently the Make-A-Wish Foundation asked me to participate in helping out a seven year old boy who was diagnosed with a terminal brain tumor. His name is Craig and his wish is to have an entry in the Guinness Book of World Records for the largest collection of business cards for an individual. This is more difficult than it appears, as he is only allowed ONE card from each company.
I ask that you please take a moment to drop a card in the mail to Craig to assist him in accomplishing his dream. Should you know of anyone else who might be willing to participate, feel free to pass this information along. I sincerely thank you.

I'm on it... puttin mine in the mail right now.
Two businesses = 2 different cards.
That is the dumbest wish I ever heard of though.
I would wish to be live on the set of Hot Lezbo Acts II, or instead of collecting the most business cards, he should of asked for used panties. LOL

No offense Al, but I smell a scam here. Sounds to me like the business cards will end up in the hands of many marketing jerkoffs to send you all kinds of shit in the mail. -DD Out

The Make a Wish foundation of Atlanta and Georgia is located in Marrieta Georgia. This sounds like one of the lowest piece of shit scams that I have ever heard of. If I were you I would contact the local Make a Wish foundation and give them the information that was sent to you so we all will know if this is legit or not.
This hits home because, unfortunately, I have used the foundation for a wish for my son. I have only praise for them and my only regret is that I cannot give all of my money and time to them. So if someone is using them for some scam they should be reported immediately.
