I, Harry, have the following thoughts/comments on this suspected fraudulent email message from “Santino Manjo”:
I respectfully decline your decidedly poor offer / business proposal and request that you shuffle off the mortal coil in a post haste fashion.
Please also desist from using the common form of address: ‘You’ – my friends address me as Mr Styles, all others address me as ‘He who is superior to all’.
