    *People keep saying three things: 1. Why did I change 's to 'is' in this video? 2. Did I steal this content? 3. Dhl is a real company!*
    1. Apostrophes are not used for plurals in English; an apostrophe followed by an S occurs in two contexts:
    Possessives - e.g: this is Bob's car
    Contraction of the word 'is' (or sometimes 'has') - e.g: What's the time? (= what *is* the time?) or: The cat's in the cradle (= The cat *is* in the cradle)
    Obviously neither of these use cases reflects the actual intent of the scammer, who merely misused apostrophes. And of course I am not _correcting_ the scammer, but mocking them.
    2. No. I did not. Observe the FAQ: czcams.com/video/b1Q9rgzv9ZU/video.html
    3. No. Dhl is not a real company. DHL is a real company.

      @Johan The reason why it shows two different dates is because the email on the screen was sent on a Tuesday, but then he sent a followup email a few days later on a Friday. Presumably, the screenshot was taken after the whole scam adventure was finished, which is why the “You replied on Fri 19/07/2019” appears at the top. I’m not entirely sure what this feature is meant for, but I assume it’s for organizational purposes to let you know which emails you have or have not replied to.

They have continued their business, and with Warosa’s vast knowledge and special skills, they have the potential to achieve greatness. But while their friendship and business partnership will survive, they are now like two planets orbiting two different galaxies - forever influenced by each others' gravity, but destined to remain apart.
