Telephone number +237117400277 is being used as part of an Advance Fee Fraud Scam by someone claiming to be "Emmanuel Obi", from Emirate Bank and using the email address emeraldbank594@gmail.com. The telephone number is included in the following Advance Fee Fraud email that is being sent to victims:
Dear

beneficiary and contrator did you send Mr clark from new york city to
claim your master card wirth of $9million five hundred thousand US
DOLLAR he was emirate bank today to claim the card i said i should
contact you first to know if you were the one that sent him he also
said you died last month of COVID 19 virus so if you are alive
contact MR emmanuel obi who is manager of emirate bank and he his
incharge of the card below is the bank EMAIL ADDRESS

+2370117400277
emeraldbank594@gmail.com
The email was sent from the email address "MR emmanuel obi <canadatdbank@gmail.com>", with the subject "DEAR contractor are you died or alive reply as soon as posible.".

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.
