Telephone number +874763648314 is being used as part of an Advance Fee Fraud Scam by someone claiming to be "John Philips" and using the email address okophils1@gmail.com. The telephone number is included in the following Advance Fee Fraud email that is being sent to victims:
From: MR. JOHN PHILIPS
238 Roan Crescents
Sage Corporate Park North
Victoria Island
Nigeria
PRIVATE EMAIL (okophils1@gmail.com)

RE: TRANSFER OF ($48,223,000.00 USD FORTY EIGHT MILLION TWO HUNDRED
AND TWENTY THREE THOUSAND DOLLARS) INTO YOUR ACCOUNT.

I feel quite safe dealing with you in this important business.
Though,this medium (Internet) has been greatly abused, I choose to
reach you through it because it still remains the fastest medium of
communication.However, this correspondence is unofficial and private,
and it should be treated as such.

At first I will like to assure you that this transaction is 100% risk
and trouble free to both parties.

My name is MR. JOHN PHILIPS,I work as the personnel manager in account
management section in charge of credit and foreign bills of one of the
prime banks here in Nigeria. On a routine inspection I discovered a
dormant domiciliary account with a Balance Of $48,223,000. 00 (Forty
eight million two hundred and twenty three thousand U.S dollar). On
further discreet investigation, I also discovered that the account
holder has died long ago with his family on a plane crash leaving no
beneficiary to the account and no other person knows about this
account.

I am in close contact with the manager of the bank here who is my
partner and he is willing to approve the transfer to any reliable and
trustworthy foreigner with foreign bank account because the former
operator of the a/c is a foreigner and from Germany in particular. I
am certainly sure that he has no written or oral WILL attached to the
account, no beneficiary and nobody will come again for the claim of
this money. It is only a foreigner who can claim this money with legal
claims to the account holder, which I will provide to you if you are
interested, therefore I need your cooperation in this transaction. The
difference in country of origins is not a hindrance to the success of
this transaction. This money will remain useless in this dormant
account if I did not transfer the fund out to a foreign account.

I will provide the necessary information and documents needed in order
to claim this money. I only need your cooperation as a foreigner to
provide your safe bank account information for the transfer. All
arrangement that will ensure a smooth transfer of the fund to the
account, which you are to nominate, is already in place. You should
also provide me with your direct phone lines for easy communication. I
wish for utmost confidentiality in handling this transaction.

At the conclusion of this transaction, your share will be 30% of the
total transfer sum, 60% for my partner and me while 10% will be set
aside for any expenses both parties might incure during the process of
the transfer. The fund will be transferred to your account in two
parts. I will first transfer $20USD Million to your account. I will
fly over to meet you after the successful transfer for sharing
according to the agreed percentages.I will have the remaining balance
of USD28, 223 Million transferred to your account only after the
successful sharing of the first transfer without any disappointment
from your side.

Let me hear from you URGENTLY.

For further inquiries contact me through my private email
address:(okophils1@gmail.com)Let all email be through my private email
address (okophils1@gmail.com)

Best Regards,

MR. JOHN PHILIPS
Tel: + 874 - 763 - 648313
Fax: +874 - 763 - 648314
Email: (okophils1@gmail.com)
The email was sent from the email address "MR. JOHN PHILIPS <okophils1@gmail.com>", with the subject "TRANSFER OF ($48,223,000.00 USD FORTY EIGHT MILLION TWO HUNDRED AND TWENTY THREE THOUSAND DOLLARS) INTO YOUR ACCOUNT.".

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.
