Subject: ADORABLE YORKIE ADOPTION.
MY NAME IS JENIFER BUTLER, I AND MY HUSBAND ARE ON A CHRISTIAN MISSION TO AFRICA AND I CAME ALONG WITH MY PUPPY. AFTER A WHILE I NOTICE THAT THE AFRICAN WEATHER IS NOT GOOD FOR THE PUPPY AND I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO TAKE GOOD CARE OF HIM THE WAY I ALWAYS DO BECAUSE OF MY JOB.
I NEED A SOMEONE TO ADOPT HIM AND TAKE CARE OF HIM THE WAY I ALWAYS DO. IF YOU CAN TAKE CARE OF HIM DO SEND A REPLY AND I WILL EMAIL YOU HIS PICTURES.
I HOPE TO READ FROM YOU.
REGARDS,
JENIFER.
This seems like an attempt to get your email address - purpose: unknown. Seems innocent enough, but once you respond, there's no telling where it might go from there. It belongs in the junk folder. There are more appropriate ways to set up animal adoption. This is NOT how it's done.
