It sounds scam, ignore it. Don't send them any reply and don't lose your money. Take care. It is the Nigerian scam.

The Radisson Hotels are a part of Scandinavian Airlines Group. They will NEVER use a hotmail address or a Yahoo address. I'm pretty sure this is a SCAM so be care full. You could always try and call a Raddisson Hotel that you know of eg. London, Copenhagen, Oslo or New York, to see if they have ever heard of a Nigerian sister Hotel.

The Radisson website says they will be opening a hotel there in late 2007. But you should be made aware that Nigeria is notorious for sending out solicitations that are usually fraud and scams. Don't ever send a penny to anyone asking for money in Nigeria or any African nation for that matter. In fact, beware of anyone asking you to send money in another country for some sort of fee. This usually leaves them out of the reach of US law enforcement. Remember the old saying, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

What kind of correspondence would you possibly expect to get from a hotel in another country? It is a scam, someone looking for money. Think about it. A hotel in Caracas, Venezuela emails you. Why? Really. Why? Maybe you live in France and you own a hotel. Are you going to email random people in South Korea? Scam scam scam.

I feel it was the real hotel company they should have their own email system. So Please just contact one of the hotels and confirm that there is one in Nigeria. One more thing I take high offense to people assuming all Nigerians are 419ers. I am Nigerian and proud of it I respect myself and other nationals and that is the way it should be.In this case though I would say confirm all the information this person is trying to give you because I do feel it is a lot of B.S.
