Dear Madam/ Dear Sir,

I am in charge of promoting the artwork of artist Christiane Van Marsenille who is one of your members.
Recently we have received a mail by someone who is interested in one of the paintings.
The exchange of mail looks very strange (as you will see below; in chronological order) and we fear that some illegal procedure could be under way.

>< " N.B.:- I will like you to mail my manager on this address so that he will
authorise the payment for the artwork and make sure you send the price

What is your manager's name and address. Could you prepare a bit of text I
could forward to your manager.
Thanks.
