Dear Donna Carlson,

I have spoken to my partner who is very excited to get this flat. However, as we are very devout Christian and Muslim people (belonging to Holy Church of Jesus and Muhammad Inc.) there is very strict stipulation against use of sodomy on any premises rented. Please to understand our scruples on this point- as we are living clean life dedicated to purity.

Kindly reassure us on this point- viz. no sodomy is occurring on premises. Once a pastor of our Church is staying in guest house used by former President of Zimbabwe Canaan Banana. However His Excellency was doing some sodomy there. It was causing too much disturbance due to ghost and also bad smell (faeces)

If you can give assuarance regarding absence of sodomitical activities on premises past and present we will be very interested to be for your very good tenancy and piece of mind.

With invocation of all blessed prophets, devout greetings

Vic & Jenny

Obviously this isn’t going to deter the scammers but it is helpful for my ‘piece of mind’
