...well...what can a gal do after this kind of absolutely dim-witted mail from an obvious fool.
I replied o...Answer a fool according to his folly, Lest he be wise in his own eyes.prov26:5
Anyways I replied and my response went like this:
Stupid omo ale jati jati(bastard!!!).you no dey look face before you send your stupid email abi?Imagine o!Na me you wan con abi(is it me you want to con?)?
God punish you and all your cohorts.I would have given you a generational curse to nurse for the rest of your life,but I won't 'cos there's still hope for you to change.Piece of advice...You better give ur life to Christ!All this rubbish wey you dey do no go pay your arse at the long run.
Another thing...Go and brush up on your english...It sucks.
If you refuse to change ehn?Evil will befall you on all sides and you will spend the rest of your life in "alagbon hotel".
If you know you have so much brain,why don't you use it for something positively constructive.
Note of warnining...If you send this kind of mail to this addy again,You will cool off in jail for a long time...Infact...Till kingdom come! IDIOT!
Well I had time to do that 'cos I was on the train home when I saw the mail(lol)
