Seriously, how do you respond to an email, advertisment, etc written like this? If you reply correcly, do they often reply not following what you had explained?

This is an advertisement obviously by someone who did not pay any attention in school. That or it could be that English is a second language, but trust me, I have gotten TONS of emails from people for whom English is a second language that are far more literate than this post.
