Care to read what i wrote ? Its a difference if you chose to do it yourself or get blackmailed into it. If the marmites are so good and generous why dont they just gather the money and THEN use that money to donate it ? Why even mention it ?
Hello there,
Don't you worry! We naturally have an internal gethering of isk and assets among our members coupled to some hilarious prizes. Next to that, we are also giving one of our main income sources (surrender fee) to charity, mind you the fee is even lowered for the purpose; Only one plex!?! We kill that in minutes sometimes.
We never put our eggs in one basket.

Imagine the outrage if the Red Cross would find out some of the money they received was earned by hurting peaceful rocks in a spaceship computer gameGǪ 
To stay on topic, we have on average 50 new wardecs every week, we negotiate surrender for isk on a daily basis and we sent out the mail in the OP to only a select few corps.
In other words, we know who you areGǪ If you arenGÇÖt the CEO of your corp, I suggest you talk to him first before drama posting nonsense.
If you arenGÇÖt who we think you are than good job on taking things out of context and blowing them up well beyond any form of proportion.
Anyhow, as said before, we do other things for this particular charity in EVE employing our normal gameplay, we also are invested in other charities in and out of EVE.
Fly safe

OP,
Did you receive the mail yourself? (NO!)
Did you receive the mails that were sent beforehand? (NO)
What are you complaining about than?
If the original receiver of said mail would speak up with his/her main we'd have a basis for a discussion.
I take it he/she won't however, since we talked about it before and after the sending of said mail.
Sorry I can't say many concrete things because THAT would be embarassing for some.

Sure, and you HAD to mention that because it's so SUPERsekret and SUPERexciting!
Yes it is 
Sucks for you that your NPC corp doesn't offer you any exitement of the player created kind.
I take it that's why you try to dump on people actually making effort to create some content and background for others to enjoy while at the same time supporting charity).

I apologize, when coming down to your level I felt less secure and therefor reacted with childish remarks to your well thought out statements.

I would however be more impressed with Marmites if they just straight ransomed a shitload of ISK and contributed a huge amount of PLEX of their own.
It's kind of lazy to ask others to do it "for you."
Thank you. This is exactly what we are doing next to a smallscale special for some people 'in the know' that have nothing to do with the OP. Call it a little roleplay schtick where a small rodent kicks a bear in the nuts laughingly and demands to hand over the goods. Rest assured, we'll be donating and we'll be donating more than all these sour pusses whining about things they only know 1% off will ever donate.
Also, as clearly proven by the goonies on many occassions and just now above, Marmites are completely harmless if you fly anything with a gun ducktaped to it. Heck, appart from said goonies, Marmites hardly kill anything in this game, how they can afford to wardec everyone and their mother is completely beyond me... I think Tora is secretly a nullbear using his spacepower to RMT and pay for decs.

I guess it can look that way if you pluck it from its context. I hadn't actually described all of Eve online and had assumed you would realise the limitations of the scenario that I was attempting to operate within.
In broader terms CCP would/should be able to find the greedy, everything is a pattern and so long as you fit or deviate from one you'll stand out in some way. Unless you aren't greedy or are statistically insignificant. CCP don't suddenly have additional resources to police the game due to a bad happening somewhere in the world.
Alternatively you can save a shed load on your power bill if you give people a clear Boolean type definition of right and wrong to work with and let them do the hard work instead. As far as I am aware it was people and not CCP using obvious queries that first spotted the alternative spelling donation chars, the clear right/wrong let that be detected and dealt with. The players posses far greater resources than CCP to detect scams in this area and all CCP need to do is obey K.I.S.S. and yet they have chosen not to.
Methinks you are the one reading to much in things, really.
Step back and read what you wrote.

I've spoken with the GM Team regarding this, and the decision is quite simple.
Corporate extortion via demand for payment to cease hostilities is a valid game mechanic.
If this valid game mechanic is being used as a method of raising ISK for a good cause, then CCP will not intervene.

Seems legit, no?

I just mean, that why would they bother to investigate? Scams are perfectly within the bounds of the EULA. Even if they did investigate and find it was a scam, they wouldn't do anything.
As stated by CCP, they'll ban us and they have the means to verify as do you.
