Dear Diplomat Wilfred
I trust that you are still safe at the airport? I did try sending the information to your other email address but I fear the FBI must have blocked that address. Let's hope this e-mail reaches you safely.
It has now been a week since my brother's funeral. It was actually quite a sad event and Raquel was very upset of course but DCI Roy Slater enjoyed himself. In fact, I told DCI Roy Slater about your deal with Derek and he showed a great deal of interest!
As you can see from the test question, Derek clearly had a portend of his impending death.
Here is the information you require:
Sender: DEREK TROTTER
Number: 24192419 (Moneygram)
Country: Benin City, Nigeria
Amount: 50$
Question: What is it like up there with the Peckham Angels?

I sent the following message to Diplomat John Brown but it failed because he used an invalid e-mail address!
Hello Diplomat Brown
I think you are delivering package to my late brother, Derek Trotter. Derek did send 55$ to Diplomat Wilfred but I fear that Diplomat Wilfred has died of thirst at JFK airport. Please ensure that that you are not detained by the authorities at the airport when you arrive, otherwise you may die too.
My address is still the same - 1600 Pennsylvannia Avenue, Washington, but you cannot reach me by phone as I am totally deaf.

Currently, Nigerian Government expenditure is 30% of GDP, yet 50 Billion dollars (23.5% of GDP) is being paid to 5,000 fraud victims. Yeah, that makes sense!0 -

A massive earthquake, the seventh largest recorded in history, struck the east coast of Japan on Friday 11 March.
The earthquake, measuring 9.0 on the Richter scale, triggered a tsunami which hit the east coast of Japan with 7-metre-high waves, leaving a trail of destruction.
Reports say that more than 1,000 people have died in the disaster, with many more missing and many injured. The earthquake triggered fires and caused severe damage to buildings, leaving more than five million homes without electricity and a million without water.
The Japanese Red Cross has been working on the ground since the disaster began, mobilising 86 teams, made up of around 600 doctors, nurses and support staff, to provide first aid and healthcare and assess the damage and needs of the communities affected.
More than 300,000 people who were evacuated before the tsunami struck have been housed in temporary centres set up in schools and public buildings where the Red Cross is distributing thousands of blankets.
The Japanese Red Cross has agreed to accept donations from the UK.
In the event that we receive more donations to the Japan Tsunami Appeal than the Japanese Red Cross and International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement can reasonably and efficiently spend, any surplus funds will be used to help us prepare for and respond to humanitarian disasters both here in the UK and overseas.
Please make a donation to the Japan Tsunami Appeal to help those affected.
You can make a donation Via MoneyBookers by sending your payments to RCaloncagon@yahoo.com.
