The response came very quickly, and it was a HUGE email (nearly 3 pages). Below
are the highlights.

My Dear Glenn,
Thank you very much for your kind and prompt response to my email.
I am aware that this email may have come to you as a surprise...
my husband
advised that we should try the internet. Our computer operator did this and got
your email address and that of two others, however I decided to appraoch you for
this very confidential project after fasting and prayers hoping that you will
agree to have a cordial relationship with the family and not take advantage of
our situation...
Meanwhile find attached a copy of our family group photograph to assure you
that you are dealing with honest people. we expect you to send us yours if
you have any available...
I must let you know that as far as
this project arrangement is concerned, there is absolutely no risk involved...
As I may be closely watched by the government and my phone may be bugged , I must
confess my inability in having a direct telephone conversation with you. I have
because of this, asked my brother in-law Alh.Ibru Mustapha, to take care of any
telephone communication with you on my behalf. His telephone number is 234 1 470
0842...
It is important that you should indicate in your reply where you would want
the consignment to be airlifted to London,Brussels or Amstardam, as this will
be included in the agreement with club 2000. Look forward to your prompt reply.
Truly yours,
Salatu
If I wasn't set at ease before, I had no excuse now, knowing that I was chosen
after fasting and prayer. Even God wanted me to help these people. Also, I was
assured several times that there was no risk. Wonderful. My favorite part, however,
was the attached family photo, seen below:
