its same from cindy...help me ...if this really scam coz i have no idea about that?thanks

I'm sorry to say that it is an absolute scam.

The email address is a free email address that is not associated with the real border agency in any way.
The phone number starts with 4470 - these numbers are not real UK phone numbers, but are redirect phone numbers that are used by scammers who are pretending to be in UK when they are not.

The writing tells me that the person is African, not British.
