cDear, someone in authority!

I am afraid you may be surprised to receive this letter from a stranger whom you have neither met nor heard. I happen to know your E-mail address from www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/learningenglish/grammar/ask_about_english/ over the internet. Nice to meet you!

Now, let me introduce myself.

Ridiculous to say, I am an English teacher in Korea.

All that I want to know is a grammatical error or mistake in following No1, No2, and No3.

1. Stensson lied to thousands of people to perform, what it is now one of the most famous April Fool's Day hoaxes in Sweden.

2. Stensson lied to thousands of people to perform what it is now - one of the most famous April Fool's Day hoaxes in Sweden.

3. Stensson lied to thousands of people to perform what is now one of the most famous April Fool's Day hoaxes in Sweden.

Please let me know about it quickly as soon as possible.

I anticipate your favorable reply.

Bye for now and take care.

They are all so egregiously ill-formed that I can hardly understand the meaning.  I suppose that you mean:

 Stensson lied to thousands of people in what is now one of the most famous April Fool's Day hoaxes in Sweden.
