01206 is a Colchester area code, but when dialling it a message saying "you have dialled an incorrect number" is received. Looks to me like they have spoofed a UK telephone number to try and make themselves appear more authentic, so yes, I would agree that it looks like a scam.

Good job you weren't fooled and it was kind of you to alert people to this.
