You'd be amazed at my reaction to receiving such an unexpected and wonderful opportunity.You see, Mark XXXXX was my younger brother, and he died at age 19 in the United States.I recognized this immediately as yet another example of the infamous "Nigerian Scam", wherein you offer a false fortune, and bleed as much money as possible out of gullible people, sometimes getting them to travel to your country, hopefully with cash you can have a helper steal from them, leaving them destitute in a foreign country. Before, I was angrily amused at you. Now, invading my family, you have angered me.I place the family curse upon you. May your muscles wither and shrink so that you cannot walk or stand, only crawl on your belly like a crippled lizard.May the gift of sight go from you, so that you glide through the dust, and all you pass know of your disgrace and evil, and either spit in your begging cup or kick it from your hand so that you have to crawl to find it. May the spirits of your ancestors rise up and haunt you day and night, shaming you further for your sins and crimes. May you die in thirsting, starving agony, and Satan claim you and place you as a foot-wiper at the entrance to Hell.But you have a real nice day today, y'hear?
