Telephone number +12028602167 is being used as part of an Advance Fee Fraud Scam by someone claiming to be "Paul Eric" and using the email address pauleric693@gmail.com. The telephone number is included in the following Advance Fee Fraud email that is being sent to victims:
ATTENTION;

Note: if you found this email in your junk/spam, its because of your
internet isp server.

I am Ms.Lawanda Edwin, I am a US citizen,58 years Old. My residential
address is 708 Queen Street Wilmington, North Carolina 28401 United
States,I am thinking of moving since I am now wealthy.I am one of
those people that took part in receiving Inheritance funds in East &
West Asians many years ago and they refused to pay me,I had paid
different fees while in the United States trying to get my funds from
those banks and lottery organizers but all to no avail.

So I decided to travel to Wright City, Oklahoma with all my
compensation documents, And I was directed by the Federal Bureau of
Investigation Director to contact Mr Paul Eric, who is a
representative of the INTERNATIONAL MONETARY FUND (IMF),a Human Rights
Activist and a member of the Compensation Award Committee,And a
Diplomatic Agent, currently in Wright City, Oklahoma and I contacted
him and he explained everything to me. He said whoever is contacting
us through emails are fake, Mr Paul Eric personally directed me on
how to claim my Inheritance fund.

He directed me to the paying bank for the claim of my Compensation
payment. Right now I am the happiest woman on earth because I have
received my compensation funds amounting to $9,400,000.00. Moreover,
Mr Paul Eric showed me the full information of those that are yet to
receive their payments and those whose inheritance had not been paid
and the list of all outstanding contractor that were owed that are yet
to receive their payments and I saw your email as one of the
beneficiaries on the list he showed me, that is why I decided to email
you to stop dealing with those people, they are not with your funds,
they are only making money out of you. I will advise you to contact
Mr Paul Eric. Kindly send your personal details to him to prove your
identification such as Full name,current home address,current Phone
No.

You have to contact him directly on this information below.

Compensation Award Office.
Contact Tel: +1(202)860-2167
Name : Mr Paul Eric
Email: pauleric693@gmail.com

You really have to stop dealing with those people that are contacting
you and telling you that your fund is with them, it is not in anyway
with them, they are only taking advantage of you and they will dry you
up until you have nothing left.The only money I paid after I met
Mr Paul Eric was for full legal affidavit to support my claim and
approval of my compensation funds release which will enable the
transfer of the funds immediately to your bank account or whichever
way you desire to receive your payment.Take note of that and i will
advise you to contact him Asap if you wish to receive your fund
without any further wasting of time.

Thank You and Be Blessed.
Ms.Lawanda Edwin
of 708 Queen Street Wilmington,
North Carolina 28401 USA
The email was sent from the email address "Mr Paul Eric <obinnauyamade90@gmail.com>", with the Reply-to address "pauleric693@gmail.com" and the subject "INTERNATIONAL MONETARY FUND(IMF)".

The email is a classic example of an Advance Fee Fraud Scam with promises of a large sum of money being transferred to the victim. Anyone responding to it will be told that there is a fee/tax/insurance payment to be paid to receive the money. This will be followed by payment after payment until the victim runs out of money or realises that they are being scammed.
