    Not sure I'd bother with any of the sleuthing although concede that it might be quite a fun thing to do...

    But come on, guys! This couldn't scream SCAM more if it had SCAM in red across the top! The grammar's terrible; it doesn't address you by name; it's got random capitalisation; it mentions 'Great British Pounds'; it purports to be from an address in England yet is clearly written by someone whose first language is not English; none of the postal addresses, email addresses and names match; it wants more personal details than I know about my own husband and.... it's offering you huge sums of money for nothing!
