This is to inform you that my son Sri Saibal Lahiri has got an appointment, through internet, from Radisson Hotel and Resorts,Victoria Island, Lagos(soft copy of the appointment letter attached) and he has been advised to join before 1.6.2006 In the said letter they have asked my son to contact Nigerian Diplomatic Atorney in Nigeria for for processing of his Visa application and work permits. Barrister Rock Benzamin,vide his letter ( copy enclosed) has advised him to send the visa form duly filled in along with payment of USD $1650 for processing the visa application.In the Nigerian immigration site, I find that the Visa application fee is much lower than what was claimed .He also advised him to send the money via Western Union. I have enquired and find that Western union is not transferring money from India to abroad but only transferring the same from abroad to India.
Under the above I would request you to kindly arrange for verrification of the above fact and let me know so that his carrier is not jeopardised.
Waiting for an early reply.

It might be a Nigerian scam. Ignore it, don't send them any reply.
