    This is a sure scam....I was once scammed by someone from London, at least that's where he said he's from and stupid me believed him cos I am new to online dating sites and was completely oblivious by scammers techniques and styles....I then researched on it after losing money and found out that if a UK prefix number starts with 701 it is faux.....

    Thank you for posting this

    I'm assuming the good doctor is a foreigner, since his command of English and grammar is so appalling.

    Perhaps I'll give his mobile a ring....before forwarding his details to the BMA.

    The (0)701 telephone is a personal numbering sequence for virtual services. The actual subscriber could be just about anywhere in the world depending on the routing that is set up. Probably satellite telecommunications are employed somewhere in the routing.

    Not always used for scams. (unlike this clear case of scam)

    Surgeons may act as if they own the hospital employing them, but BUPA has owned this one for three years ! They are also referred to as " Mr. " and I can't find " genuity " in the dictionary .
