DIRECT TELEPHONE
The email was sent from the email address "GENERAL MUHAMMADU BUHARI,RTD,GCFR. <presidentofnigeria58@gmail.com>", with the Reply-to address "paymentapprovdcompensation@gmail.com" and the subject "FINAL NOTICE BEFORE TRANSFER , RECONFIRM YOUR TELEPHONE NUMBER AND CALL ME ON 234:8135609149 OR 234: 8151895265 AND RECONFIRM YOUR TELEPHONE NUMBER OR TEXT ME".

The email raises a number of red flags that indicate that this is a scam. Firstly, Presidents, Prime Ministers etc of countries do not randomply write to people advising them that they are entitled to large sums of money. Secondly, the email was sent to multiple recipients using BCC. This is a classic example of an Advance Fee Fraud Scam and 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.
