Telephone number +22969517002 is being used as part of an Advance Fee Fraud Scam by someone claiming to be "Dr. Mike James", from United Bank of Africa and using the email address croisbank@gmail.com. The telephone number is included in the following Advance Fee Fraud email that is being sent to victims:
Hello the beneficiary,

This is to notify you that your over due compensation claim/contract
payment which is with a commercial bank here in Benin Republic which we
monitor for processing and approval is ready to be released through
the UBA bank via ATM Card.which you were trying for years to claim
without success.

It is pertinent to note that an issue of this magnitude should have
commenced with a formal meeting in London to clear doubts as many
frauds are all over the internet, but due to the time factor and the
urgency this matter requires, please bear with me for making the
initial contact through e-mail.

Meanwhile, a man with British Passport with a name Mr. James Jackson,
came to our office few days ago with a letter of authority, claiming
to be your true representative in this matter.

Please, do reconfirm to this office, as a matter of urgency, whether
this man is from you truly, so that this office will not be held
responsible for paying this approved fund of ($5.2M)If this man is not
your true.

representative, you are requested to fill and return this information
for verification purposes, so that your approved claim valued US$5.2M
only will be re-approved on your name as the beneficiary of the fund.
This fund was as a result of inheritance /contract fund on your behalf
as the beneficiary of it.

1. Your full name..........................................
2. City....................................................
3. State...................................................
4. Zip Code................................................
5. Delivery address........................................
6. Personal Phone number..................................

As soon as we receive the above data, we shall commence with all

Remittance/Foreign Operations of the UBA bank here in Benin
who handles all foreign inheritance, contract claims etc. We shall
proceed with the delivery details to the said Mr. Jackson,if we do not
hear from you within the next few working days from today.

You are advised also to stop any communications with anybody until you
receive your fund to avoid further distractions.

You should get back to us for more details and the delivery fee of $250 only.

Executive Officer Contact Number Text Only:+1786377949
Foreign Paying Dept United Bank Of Africa.DIRECT CALL NUMBER +22969517002
The email was sent from the email address "Mr.Mike James <office.of.first.lady14@gmail.com>", with the Reply-to address "croisbank@gmail.com" and the subject "Hello the beneficiary,".

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.
