Ideal World Concept Organization (IWCO)

This is a scam. Scammers tend to use evasive techniques when sending spam like this.In this case, a scammer in South Africa (IP address 196.25.253.13) sent this message through msn.com using an msn.com "from" address, but a Gmail "reply-to" address, and a different Gmail address as the reply address in the body of the message. A quick search on the web shows that several other parties have reported receiving spam of this sort, and there is an "idealworldconcept.org", but it was registered about two months ago (06-Mar-2009 06:49:27 UTC) to someone called "WEB WIZARD2008" in South Africa, so it's probably part of the same scam.

Global Heart Organisation for Human Development

Based on the obvious similarities, I say this is the same scam as "Global Youth Organisation for Human Development". At a guess, they've changed the name because the other name was becoming widely known as a scam. Also, perhaps to prevent the new name from becoming too widely known, they have developed a chronic case of spelling errors in relation to "heart".
