What in the world does this have to do with anything regarding furthering out knowledge of vintage lightweights? What am I missing here?

DIAMOND BANK PLC. OFFICE OF THE CREDIT CONTROLLER NATIONAL CREDIT CONTROL UNIT PLOT 1261 ADEOLA HOPEWELL VICTORIA ISLAND LAGOS-NIGERIA EMAIL:mrjordan1@virgilio.it
REF:DBP/OG/XX140/02 FROM THE DESK OF: MR. ERIC JORDAN TREASURY CONTROLLER DIAMOND BANK PLC.
Dear Short,
I am Mr. Eric Jordan,. treasury controller diamond bank plc.
I have very strict and confidential discussion to make with you. On the 3rd June, 1996 an American Oil Consultant/Contractor with shell petroleum Nigeria Plc, in the name of Engr. Michael Watson made a numbered time (fixed) deposit for twelve calendar months valued at US$91.4million dollars in our branch here in Lagos. On maturity, we sent a routine notification to his forwarding address, but got no reply. After a month, we sent him a reminder and finally his contract employers, the Shell Petroleum Nigeria Plc, wrote to us that Engr. Michael Watson died in an automobile accident and that he died without MAKING A WILL and all attempts by the American embassy to trace his next of kin was fruitless.
I therefore, made further investigation and discovered that Engr. Michael Watson was infact an immigrant from Papua New Guinea and only obtained an American green card. He did not declare any kin or relations in all his official documents, including his deposit paper work in our bank. The total amount US$91.4 Million dollars is still sitting in our bank as dormant account, know one will ever come forward to claim it and according to the Law of Nigeria after ten years the money will revert to the ownership of the Nigerian government IF THE ACCOUNT OWNER IS CERTIFIED DEAD.
This is the situation and our proposal to you is that we are looking for a trustworthy and humble foreigner who will stand in as the next of kin.
This whole amount of money totalled US$91.4 Million dollars will be shared thus:
1. 31% will be yours as the beneficiary of the account 2. 52% will be shared amongst the Board of Directors and me 3. 8% will be shared amongst the staffs most especially in the computer department. 4. 9% will be invested in your country for us in any business you deem fit.
I am looking forward to hear from you soonest
Best regards
Mr. Eric Jordan
TREASURY CONTROLLER
