Telephone number +19177943335 is being used as part of an Advance Fee Fraud Scam by someone claiming to be "Hou Kai" and using the email address un-boa@usa.com. The telephone number is included in the following Advance Fee Fraud email that is being sent to victims:
THE UNITED NATIONS BOARD OF AUDITORS

Email: UN-BoA@usa.com
Tel: +1 (917) 794-3335

Welcome to the United Nations. It's your world.

Attention:

Following the 2024 auditing exercise by the United Nations Board of Auditors, a discovery on your file revealed that an awarded fund of $3,000,000.00 (Three Million USD) has long been overdue for payment to you. The United Nations Board of Auditors was established by the General Assembly of the United Nations to provide an external audit to the United Nations and its Funds and Programmes. The mandate of the Board is to make independent and professional audit observations with respect to the efficiency of the financial procedures, the accounting system, the internal financial controls and, in general, the administration and management of the United Nations and its Funds and Programmes in conformity with the International Standards on Auditing and other generally accepted standards.

In view of this development, the United Nation Compensation Commission (UNCC) and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) brings to your notice as the beneficiary of an approved payment of USD$3,000,000.00 being an overdue payment awarded to you by the above organizations. Following your emergence as a beneficiary from our database with registered claims number UNCC/IMF/064SN-24, please re-confirm with us the below data for further verifications to enable us facilitate payment proceedings.

The email was sent from the email address "United Nations Board of Auditors <UN-BoA@usa.com>".

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.
