I'm not disputing that it could be from abroad just that the probability is that it is UK based.
Foreign scams normally involve large amounts of money in one hit, big money scammmers will not hang around, they will take as much money as they can in as short of time as possible, ie they will use their account details for the bank transfer for a few days and when there is enough money in close it down.0
