Telephone number +14242208954 is being used as part of an Advance Fee Fraud Scam by someone claiming to be "Joseph Brown" and using the email address unintdept.alert@solution4u.com. The telephone number is included in the following Advance Fee Fraud email that is being sent to victims:
Attn:

I have received your email message. The information passed over to you by the Deputy Secretary-General of the United Nation (UN) concerning the direct payment of your fund's sum of ($485,000.00 USD) through the United Nation (UN) World Bank (WB) and New Development Executive Council Financial Unit California legal approved International ATM Visa Card is the truth. The payment was already arranged to take place without procrastination based on the order from the Top Financial Bodies.

Be informed that we are working based on the new financial approved Law against terrorism activities and cannot violate the law. Therefore, you are required to make sure that you maintain the confidentiality of our communication with you by keeping the information concerning your payment and the Pin Code of your International ATM Visa Card as you are advised in order to enable us to send your card to you and you will receive it successfully within 3 days without any complication or errors right.

You are required to send to me your following detail/where the parcel of your International ATM Visa Card will be delivered to you:-

1) Your Full Names:
2) Your House/Office Address:
3) Your City:
4) Your Country:
5) Your Private Mobile Telephone Number:
6) Your National/Citizenship Identification Numbers:

As soon as I received the above details, the International Visa Card Official Form will be sent to you to fill and sign as the legal approved owner of the funds (USD $485,000.00) and to return it back to the financial authority for the immediate processing and releasing of your card for an urgent delivery to your address without delay as ordered by the Top Financial Bodies.

Also, we wish to inform you that based on the reports, there are terrorist members called hackers, hijackers, pirates, and scammers. And they used to send scam mass emails to people and some of their messages used to go with what is called hacker, Sorex-warm, and virus-in attachment. So you are advised to be very careful the way you respond/reply to messages sent to you by an unknown person telling you about the transfer of any money/fund of any kind to you. Because they used to impersonate governmental and financial institutions and directors and using the names for scamming people by extorting money from innocent people of the world for sponsoring their evil terrorism activities.

However, we are going to educate you more on the receipt of your above detail so that we will be quite sure that this office is dealing directly with the legally approved owner of the International ATM Visa Card. Because the United Nation Security Agency and World Bank Authority warned that we should make sure that we are communicating directly with the legally approved beneficiary before releasing any further secret information concerning the card.

Be informed that we are working 24 hours at times based on the order from the President and the Top Financial Bodies. Expecting to receive your detail for further information to your right.

Yours Sincerely,
Mr. Joseph Brown
United Nations Representative/Agent.

The email was sent from the email address "Joseph Brown <unintdept.alert@solution4u.com>", with the subject "Re: FW: Monitoring Group.".

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.
