Question

Where is the location in U.K of the phone# [phone]-xxxx?

Answer 1

When I purchased a cell phone from my service provider, I was able to choose just about any area code, including an area code from another country. So it is possible to have a number that would be a local call for wherever your customers and friends are located.

According to the first source link I posted below, "Numbers in the +44 7 range are to be used to identify mobile, paging and personal numbers."

Most "419" scams using +44 70xx numbers involve emails that are sent from Nigeria and other West African countries, not from the UK! If you see a +44 70xx number in a 419 scam email it usually means you're dealing with criminals based in Nigeria.
