Should we consider London School & Management & Technology (LSMT) DBA?

A marketing agent has been texting and calling me and I did my homework per below findings. Is London School of Management and Technology (LSMT, UK) accredited? After doing personal research, here’s what I found — LSMT is not a UK-recognised university. It is a private company (Euro American UK Ltd) and does not appear on the UK government’s official list of degree-awarding bodies. Despite the use of “London” in its name, it has no approval from UK higher education regulators such as OfS, QAA, or Ofqual. Honorary Doctorates are marketed through agents for £4,000–£10,000 with no academic requirement; they are ceremonial, not earned. MBA and DBA programs offered have no proven academic rigour or recognition from employers or credible universities. Affiliations with bodies like QAHE and Eurogroup may sound impressive but are private and not official accreditors. The website uses a ".org.uk" domain instead of the official ".ac.uk" reserved for real UK universities — a major red flag. Agent promotions are often done through WhatsApp or Telegram with “limited-time” phrases to pressure buyers. There are no clear faculty members, no academic board, and no real campus shown. The school name includes “London” to sound prestigious, but it is not linked to any public institution. It also operates under various names and partner sites, making it harder to trace. There are no verified alumni, and such awards are rarely acknowledged by media or employers. Conclusion: Be cautious. These honorary titles or degrees may look prestigious, but they lack real academic value and can damage your credibility if questioned. Always verify recognition before committing.

Thanks for that info, somewhat of a run on paragraph, but has all the info right there! Yes, please be diligent in your own personal research before you apply for any type of educational institution, dig deep into their history/roots and make sure they're valid institutions beforehand...
