how do I spot a fake school - ham - 05-08-2008

I just spotted a fake school today.
I did not need edition XXXVIII of Bear's guide, I did not need to put up with the nonsense from uncle Janko and I did not need to do the XVIII century bow in front of financial frauds, perverts, misfits, gay teen pornographers etc.
I am not going to name the 'school' Rolleyes but it is a UK provider offering tuition in matters related to foreign affairs, diplomacy etc, and awarding its own awards.
Now a few typos got my attention first; it is unlikely that a serious, AAA+ 'university' might allow those on their websites.
Maybe non-native English speakers?

Their do claim to be accredited by a few 'agencies' i have never heard about, so i made a couple calls to UCAS & others, and they have no clue who these people are.
