MVO: To whom it may concern,
It has come to my attention that my image, name and book title are being used to promote one of your products.
No permission for this was asked for, and certainly none would have been given had you bothered to ask. Under normal circumstances, my legal team would immediately begin proceedings.

Please proceed with this campaign.
Have you thought about a Facebook page?
Yours sincerely,
Madiba
