Begging letter
A begging letter is a letter to a rich person or organisation, usually written by a poor person, or a person claiming to be poor, begging for money or help.〔(Definition from MacMillan Dictionary online )〕
Examples of begging letters include a variant of the Nigerian 419 scam, where a letter is sent to a wealthy individual asking for financial assistance for orphaned children, emergency surgery, etc.〔(Pleas For Charitable Donations and Begging Letters From Nigerian 419 Fraud Scammers on the ''Crimes of Persuasion'' website )〕
The May 1850 edition of ''Household Words'' contained an article entitled ''The Begging-Letter Writer'' written by the novelist Charles Dickens. In the article Dickens describes examples of the many begging letters he had received over the years, and the ruses employed by their writers to gain funds from the recipients.
