Beware of donors trying to charge you for their kidney...

Bruno,
Oh dear, what a nasty way of trying to get money out of people.
You should report abuse/unsolicited email/spam to yahoo.com
This page has the form with details they require
http://add.yahoo.com/fast/help/uk/mail/cgi_spam
and a link to click on to report abuse from yahoo.com addresses. Unfortunately to get the form you have to login as a member. Note the section on headers http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/mail/conf ... ig-11.html. You need to send the header as they have more complete details on the email origination.
Never reply spam or unwanted emails as this just lets the sender know that your email is an active account (and therefore worth further pestering),
Best regards
Susie

Hi Bruno,
I wouldn't even waste your time asking "how much?". The buying and selling of organs is illegal, and I would very much doubt you would anyone in the USA or UK etc to carry out such an operation.
By the way I've taken out the guy's email address, for privacy reasons (even though the guy was in the wrong).
The fact that he says I won't survive one year after the transplant, makes you think would you want a kidney from this person ? Its a sad world that people have to / want to resort to this,
Hal

Old Borris thinks: Oh dear, Oh dear, why are we getting our collective knickers in a twist over this? Are'nt we judging this Romanian geezer too prematurely, too harshly and without knowing all the facts.
Although I would not personally buy a kidney from anyone, this is more because of the risks involved rather than any moral judgement on the buying and selling of organs. Maybe the guy is in need of money and is willing to take the risk of selling his kidney. Why should he offer it free to a stranger? And why should a person who can aford it not buy it? Yeah, Yeah, I know it is illegal but I would not mind an illegal kidney keeping me alive and off dialysis
And tho' his English is no better than my kidneys [indeed a lot better!] is he not saying that he might not survive the transplant, not the recipient?
I don't know, without further knowledge and information, where people get the idea that he is a scumbag and ruthless. Maybe he is and maybe he is just a guy who sees the chance of making his life better and is willing to offer something of value in exchange.
