Most people from Western Europe couldn't afford to just go to London like that and waste time and money in this way. I am much more curious about the state of these people's company's financials than anything else.

Also, elaborately targeting specific people like that and presenting them with the fact that you can fake their voice on top of any kind of outrages statements while you know exactly where they work and how to get there sets a hellish precedent and I'd even consider it a veiled attempt at a threat.

It is not what I'd consider culturally appropriate behavior in the UK, business-wise. I'd try to adapt, if at all possible, to the new environment you've found yourselves in unwillingly.

They were living a comfortable life in a cheap country, and found themselves looking for a way to do the same job in a way more expensive city when their country was attacked and at war. I found their targeting strategy and "product" extremely creepy, but I am willing to give them a pass given the circumstances.
The war affects all of us in Europe, either directly or indirectly. Ukraine needs people and they legged it when the going got tough. Now they expect to win prizes playing shit games.
