About a year and a half ago, I was in contact with a Nigerian college student who claimed his father had died leaving him no funds for college. His written English was also horrible; he seemed nearly illiterate to me.
The badly written English seems nearly universal among Nigerian con artists. Why do they do this? Is it supposed to make us feel sorry for them on some level? Are they actually trained to write badly like this?
