Telephone number +22950454779 is being used as part of an Advance Fee Fraud Scam by someone claiming to be "Jose Merino", from UBA and using the email address ubab0246@gmail.com. The telephone number is included in the following Advance Fee Fraud email that is being sent to victims:
UBA Benin
Quartier Ounsoumédé,
C/316 Immeuble kaffo,
Porto Novo, Benin
Email: ubab0246@gmail.com
Tel: +229 5045 4779

Dear

This is to notify you once again that your funds with this bank are being processed to be moved to Citibank, New York branch where it will be wired to your accredited bank account without demand of fees.
The funds cannot be transferred from this branch due to demands of documents by the greedy and wicked officials of Bank of Benin. I have been working on this arrangement for months and finally it has been concluded.
The funds will be moved and transferred from Citibank after 24 hours you reconfirm the following:
Full Name:
House Address:
Alternative Address:
Mobile/House Phone Numbers:
Private Email Address:
International Passport or any valid ID card:
Note, the funds will be moved to Citibank, New York and deposited in an online account that will be opened in your name in the branch before it can be transferred.

I am waiting for your reply.

Regards,
Jose Merino
Relationship Manager,
UBA Benin
The email was sent from the email address "United Bank For Africa <reneewoodshoward@gmail.com>", with the Reply-to address "ubab0246@gmail.com" and the subject "Transfer of your funds from Citibank".

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.
