I agree with all other people who say that she probably may be able to void the contract if she a) can pay back the money b) knows that it's possible to void a contract. But that is discussed already enough in the threads here. So I want to add a new point. Should she trust such a contract and its maker? I think even if you are a little brain damanged and unable to read you should have some basic ability to determine if you can trust someone. I mean he came to her home and gave her food. That basically screams "I want to F* you" in one way or another. And when next he introduces some opportunity you can know exactly that this is where he's trying to cheat you. It's basic survival knowledge to recognize that. If you are a young white man, you might not have experienced such kind of situation before, but this structure of getting tricked is very common and not too hard to recognize, no matter where you go or what the trick is. After getting cheated a few times you recognize it as easy as a red light on the other side of the street that stops you from crossing over. If that girl doesn't have that much brain capacity she can't live alone. And if she has she certainly must learn to recognize that.

The second paragraph of the article states she can't live alone: "She says she can’t work a professional job. She can’t live alone. And, she says, she surely couldn’t understand this letter." You can't apply your logic and thought process to someone with mental or development issues. It's ignorant.

  Then how could she face that person alone? If you have a caretaker he reads your mail, he even might answer your phone, and he certainly should see that not just him and you are sitting in the room, but another dude with a steak he's feeding you. That's how I came to presume she would have some kind of autonomous agenda.
