Warriorsage , To answer your question as briefly and succinctly as possible, NO son of a US GENERAL, would ever use such a convoluted mishmash of incorrect grammar, run on sentences, poor relative word usage and misspellings. .While it is a fact that many Westerners use English in a bastardized manner, those that have reached a certain level of success in their field, will no doubt be able to compose a short missive without looking like a total ignoramus. There are many indications that this was hastily concocted by a non native English speaker bent on relieving as many people as possible from their hard earned money. .. A native speaker of Chinese, can pick out certain questionable verbiage and translation aberrations sent with the aid of translation programs, or machines, or learned from second language courses..Someone that has studied a foreign language for years, will still not quite get idioms, vernacular and slang in quite the right way. I know a girl that studied English for at least seven years in the West...Almost perfect English.. But most English speakers know the the "South" in Southern is pronounced like brother, not mouth.. Just a tip.. English speakers, on the whole will spot such inconsistencies in written materials as well. I should think that any man wishing to make a good first impression, would take some time composing such a letter.The one you recieved, screams "SCAMMER" Third rate at best.
