Good day,
Its always nice to read from you once again,but I have been very busy with work and even when I get home,its already late and I have to look after Brenda before I
can take a rest.I got her a Nanny to look after her,I am not sure i want my daughter brought up by a baby sitter.I am happy to know about your family to. To let you know about me,we are originally from, South
Africa,but relocated to British Cameroon and I work for the Plan International Organization.Brenda is our first kid and her mother died in a car accident some
months ago.I am aware we will have to get through a couple of legal papers to push this to go through,and if its worth giving her the best,i dont mind going
through all that.I chosed the US because of the opportunities that will be opened to her growing up over there,the Education and the social Insurances and health care she will enjoy while growing up over there.If you really will take my girl and give her such a good home and a decent upbringing,I will never
forget your family in my prayers.You can call me on 0023794265878,if you are interested in having a chat with us,from there we can now be certain on how to
work out the legal papers needed.Hope to hear from you
again soon.Below are some of her pictures.
Have a nice day
Regards.

he will send you a application for all your personal info, do not fall for it.
I have also gotten the letters above from him. He obviously is getting flooded with emails so he’s got scripts prepared to send out to people quickly. Obviously he isn’t reading the emails people are sending him – definitely doesn’t sound like a father looking after the well-being of his daughter. I seriously think this man has taken photos off of a US family’s website and unfortunately she is being exploited. Very sad – makes me think twice about our family website.
please get child services onto him!
