The basic answer is that all such people claiming to be in such camps are trying to defraud. Very few people in a refugee camp, if any, would have internet access. Especially to the extent that these people have.
If you have you received an email from a person (especially a girl) who claimed he/she is residing in a refugee camp in Dakar, Senegal, I can assure you it's a scam and there is no camp in Senegal. That person is a swindler.
There has been an "advance fee" scam going for awhile in which a person - most always a girl/woman - will strike up contact with someone, either as a pen pal or some other innocent encounter. Then, at a certain point, she'll let it drop that she could get a lot of money owed her, or even get out of the refugee camp, if only she had $X for this, that or the other.
There are several camps in Senegal and should you wish to donate any money it is highly recommended you do so through a recognised charity.
and this people had sent me a email to

There are no refugee camps in Senegal. The "girl in the refugee camp" is a scam that has been going on for a long, long time. The scam attempts to get banking details from gullible victims. Ignore the message, delete it.
No she is acriminal. She also wrote to to be her lover and at the same time to be her trustee to help her deposit her money from senegal commercial bank international. Her name is precious Dickson linux as she claim but i suggest her not to a nice person but a criminal. Watch out people.nb the money she her left is $3.5million.
