Here is an email from the fake lawyer. The Confirmation of Travellers' Sufficient Funds is not genuine.

If money is transferred in this way, the scammer will steal the money. He. or one of his accomplices, will be able to collect it using just the Money Transfer Control Number (MTCN), regardless of which name it was transferred to. The scammer requests a scan of the transfer receipt - this is because the MTCN is on this receipt, enabling him to use it to collect the transferred money.

The telephone number on the fake form above - +(44)-703-196-6381 - is not a normal UK telephone number. Like all numbers which begin with +4470 or +44070, it is a 'redirect' number, redirecting all calls to a mobile phone almost anywhere in the world.
