I received a hidden message in a recent from a peer from haiti. How do I know if it's voodoo?

This is voodoo. Haitian people are known for this crap. My dad dated a haitian woman when he was younger and she wanted to have children with him but my dad did not want to have kids with black women so she took my dads picture and buried it in a cemetery then my dad got into a bad car accident few days later.
