This is a scam. The phone number is fake; the phone it connects to is not in England. There was no interview. Don't send a fake passport or anything else. Stop writing to them now.

There is no doubt that it's a scam aldonin.

EDF Energy would contact you using their own server and domain, not a free e-mail service, and the scammer is using a re-direct phone service to hide his true location. Whenever the UK code 44 is followed by 70 it is not a real UK telephone number and that alone is enough to make it certain to be a scam.

Also 'caliber' is the US spelling. In the UK it's 'calibre'.

The website 419eater.com deals with what is known as 'baiting' scammers and they can guide you how to do it safely and effectively because you don't want the scammer retaliating and harming you, so it's best to be cautious until you know what you're doing.

Beaten to it by vx :D

Você quer dizer a assinatura? Qualquer ao quem você ha escrito uma carta a tem.
You mean your signature? Anyone you've written a letter to has it.
(Taking a wild guess at Portuguese, but your writing looks likely to be that of a Romance speaker. I can understand most of them except Romanian and Sardinian.)
