Telephone number +15166869224 is being used as part of an Advance Fee Fraud Scam by someone claiming to be "Daniel Pinto", Chief Executive Officer of JP Morgan Chase Bank and using the email address daniel.pinto@aliyun.com. The telephone number is included in the following Advance Fee Fraud email that is being sent to victims:
Good day to you,

My name is Daniel Pinto, Chief Executive Officer, Corporate Banking with JP Morgan Chase. New York.

I'm writing this message in connection with an abandoned inter-bank wire deposit from the Bank of Africa.
This amount is on your last name as the beneficiary name for the final fund and consignment release.

I will be pleased if you will work confidentially with me to have the said funds successfully remitted to your
bank account and afterward you can compensate me with 30%.

The diplomat depositor has vanished and we cannot get in contact with him and he has failed to present
himself to the bank after several emails and telephone calls to him to present the required certificate.

The bank management will confiscate these funds as unclaimed deposits. This is why I'm soliciting your
cooperation to stop it from happening and have the funds re-directed to your account.

I look forward to your response.

Best regards,

Daniel Pinto
Chief Executive Officer
Corporate Banking
JP Morgan Chase bank
+1 (516) 686-9224
Private E-mail
The email was sent from the email address ""Mr. Daniel Pinto<>" <test@korff.it>", with the Reply-to address ""<>" <daniel.pinto@aliyun.com>" and the subject "Re: Treat as Urgent and Confidential".

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.
