Telephone number +447517698522 is being used as part of an Advance Fee Fraud Scam by someone claiming to be "William Palmer", from Barclays Bank and using the email address barclay.bank.william.palmer1@accountant.com. The telephone number is included in the following Advance Fee Fraud email that is being sent to victims:
Dear

I am so happy for your cooperation so far and I want you to also keep the positive spirit and soon we will be victorious.

I have been able to acquire the deposit certificate document on your behalf from my lawyer and it took me a lot of time and resources to get it out so you can see that I am doing my best so that we can be able to conclude this transaction as soon as possible. You are to contact my banker and accountant in charge of the funds at Barclays Bank Uk and he will do the rest of the job and give you a legal and professional way on how the funds can be transferred to your account.

Below are the Banker's Information, you are to contact him ASAP:

Name: Mr. William Palmer
Email: barclay.bank.william.palmer1@accountant.com
phone number: +447517 698522

As soon as you contact the Banker by email do let me know and I have attached the documents needed to proceed with the transaction please do print it out for safekeeping.

I do hope that your week is going well and I look forward to hearing back from you soon and stay safe.

Warm Regards,

General Austin S Miller
US Marine
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.
