This person is a product of the Nigerian spammer/scammer phenomenon.

 

Google the email address of marymabou009@yahoo.com. You will find a bunch of sites where this person has registered their email and alias.

 

Don't get swindled because they pile the love on heavy and will ask you for a money transfer or something crazy having to do with money orders.

 

I found this website on a google search. Someone decided to play along with the scammer's ploy and the dialogue is hilarious.

I've had scammers contact me through spam and craigslist. No networking site is safe! All you can do is remain vigilant and keep an eye out for spelling mistakes and bs.

 

Just delete any emails you receive from people you do not know or are expecting.
