Telephone number +2347040299604 is being used as part of an Advance Fee Fraud Scam by someone claiming to be "Genearal Beco" and using the email address generalbeco@aol.com. The telephone number is included in the following Advance Fee Fraud email that is being sent to victims:
Dear Beneficiary

behalf have approve to be credited today so please reconfirm your bank
information where you want it to be credited without any delay as soon
as i receive the bank information

Genearal Beco

The email was sent from the email address "GENERAL BECO <lawchamber1975@gmail.com>", with the Reply-to address "generalbeco@aol.com" and the subject "Thank you".

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.
