The scammers are misusing the name and address of a real company that has been featured on TV, but (of course) they've had to claim a different telephone number. The real number is +44-20-7249-4129

Here's another sighting of this scam, except that "Richard May" was "Bryan Coonrod": http://groups.msn.com/lindalee/joboffers.msnw

Never trust a smiling duck.
