Linfa says it is :100: fake!! Tone and English are all made up. What kind of world are we living in?!?

In context

A single line often inverts meaning once you see what it answers, so neighbouring messages are always shown.

I agree. I'll ask Linfa. If legit I'll ask what she thinks actually happened. No one seems to ask her that...they just spend all the time trying to trick her out.

I've just sent him the message to check whether he thinks it's from her.

Hmmm, interesting. But yeah, the question here is if she's trying to reach you outside the great Chinese firewall...The message seems legit enough, so who knows.

Fuck! Probably some DRASTIC trick. Are you able to see the full headers in the email? That should allow you to see what country the email was sent from

Yes, probably DRASTIC. I'll check full headers when I get home.

E.g., here's what an email from you to me looks like showing the full headers [shared file(s): Original Message.pdf]

Great, thanks! I'll check in a while and let you know.
