Giles Fundraising Scam

New Orleans Hannah Giles, the “ho” in the ACORN video stings last fall is reportedly sending out direct mail fundraising appeals asking for $35 to $5000 to defend her against the so-called ACORN lawsuits against she and the discredited James O’Keefe, the pimp in that series.  I wonder if this is a scam?
