It would appear there is a real company of that name and address: http://www.londononline.co.uk/profiles/44776/

One give away in this instance should be the contact numbers are mobile numbers, surely if it were real it would be a landline. Secondly the list of personal info they ask for is identical to every other scam email. Third they use Western Union - the choice of all scam artists. Forth, it just sounds like a load of old b

I'm sorry ,how on earth would anyone think this is genuine? I have never heard of a company that wants their money paid to someone else????
I do not think it genuine for a minute. I am just saying it is a different approach than the Nigerian model and with better spelling, etc. I also wondered if the address was real. If so, the real business at that address may have an issue.
