Telephone number +447418429457 is being used as part of an Advance Fee Fraud Scam by someone claiming to be "Karl Belt", Principal Attorney at Belt LLP and using the email address karl@beltattorneys.com. The telephone number is included in the following Advance Fee Fraud email that is being sent to victims:
BELT LLP
30 SHOOTERS HILL ROAD
LONDON SE3 7BD
UNITED KINGDOM
TEL: +44 (0) 741 842 9457

Dear [REDACTED],

I would like to thank you once more for writing me concerning my proposal to you. I wish to explain further the steps involved in this process and assure you that the funds will be transferred to you within 14 days provided you follow my guidelines. The fund is deposited with First Global Trust Bank. for over 5 years. All I need from you is sincere cooperation and we will accomplish this in no time.

The first step now is for me to obtain the Letter of Administration from Her Majesty's Crown Court here in England. A Letter of Administration is a legal document that is issued by the Courts to prove who has legal authority to deal with the Estate of the person that has passed away without a Will. Once I obtain it, I will send it to you alongside an application letter for inheritance claim which you will have to print, sign and send to the Head of Operations of First Global Trust Bank so that they can start the fund release process. Upon their receipt of the application letter, they will contact you to ascertain your claims of relationship to the deceased and all you need to do is forward their correspondence to me so that I can take care of it. I will provide all the requested information. The bank will then go through the submitted details and once they confirm them to be accurate, an approval will be given for the funds to be released to you.

I hope we have established a memorandum of understanding binding this transaction as per the share ratio for the funds as it will be disheartening if you default. Since this is a transaction of mutual benefit, our mutual understanding, cooperation and effort is required to ensure it's realization. I also need you to check your e-mails regularly as this will help us to complete the transaction in a timely manner. If you have any questions regarding the process, you can ask me directly but I do wish to assure you that everything will run smoothly.

Note: I obtained a copy of the Certificate of Death 2 years ago for the purpose of this claim and have attached it to this e-mail alongside the proof of fund deposit and work identity card for your perusal. I will now wait for your response in order to proceed.

Please confirm, to enable us proceed.

Best regards,
Attorney Karl Belt
Principal Attorney, Belt LLP

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.
