I type up this letter head, and Sent it to most of the Business that were posted in the Business Directory. I assumed that everyone that was in the Business Directory was a Business Owner because its the "Business Directory"

This is a message I got back
I am not a business owner, this is scamming and spam. Reported to main mods.
When is this considered Scamming?? The only reason he got the PM was because he started a thread about a business. I know many of business who send out e-mails and postcard mails to different establishments requesting donations. I don't know what part of the world you all are from, but here in the US this is not considered scamming. All I did was ask, and if you know anything about the BIBLE, its stats this: Luke 11:9 And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you. If you can explain how this is scamming, can someone please post in this thread. I simply asked for a donation. It up to the person to donate or not. I didn't try to trick anyone into donating money. I simply asked. I spent hours typing up my Business info that I have in my thread. I told everyone everything up front in the letter. I am not hiding anything.
Scamming=A confidence trick or confidence game is an attempt to defraud a person or group by gaining their confidence.
