Seems that the company can provide central London or national rate numbers for you even if you are not in the UK so it would fool most people into thinking that they are UK based.

Oh, and the address is fake:

I might email them and act as if I'm fooled by the whole thing, then let the authorities know as soon as they ask for money.
