Rosemary and All, I got the same letter and sent a brief crash course on meteorites.(emphasis on classifying) I received no reply. If he is sending it out to everyone then he may be trying to set up a scam.

I am Mr. Umar Abbas, the executive Director of A.G. NISAMA LIMITED. A rough gemstone supplying industry. I will like to have more information regarding Nigerian meteorites. I have come across several individuals that are in possession of the stone called meteorite, which is referred over here as “thunder stone”. I will like to know the real fact about this stone. I trade primarily in gemstones, but I wouldn’t mind if I could find my way through the meteorite business. I received several enquiries regarding this stone, most especially the Hadeja meteorite, but being a novice in the field; I find it difficult to give them the correct information. My problems here is: how to identify the real meteorite, and where would I get a buyer. I will also like to know if meteorites have other names apart the categorical name “Meteorite” If the answer to the above is yes, then does one class of meteorite have more value than the other? When and where can a meteorite be found? I will be very grateful if I can find someone who can guide me through, I will also create a page in my website www.agnisama.com for the meteorite. My interest in becoming a meteorite collector is always in the high side. Your early response would be highly appreciated. Thank you for your kind assistance and co-operation.
