    Looks dodgy as hell to me.

    No contact details on their site apart from the 0845 which is no doubt redirected to a phonebox in nigeria.

    The whois information for their domain is interesting...

          Edit: Looks like dmini beat me too it!

          An IOM scheme is probably safer than these jokers.
