I would like vs. I will like?
I have been putting ads up online and get responses that include the phrase
I will like to
when in my dialect it would clearly be
I would like to
Is there any native English speakers' dialect that uses " I will like to" do something?
The reason I ask is that I often for awhile responders were openly from Nigeria or near there with scam offers; then the same kinds of scam offers were coming from England ( I could tell by the country code of the phone numbers); now they seem more discreet with this kind of accent. I don't want to turn away sincere replies, but neither do I want to respond to scammers.
By they way, they are now using names that appear to be traditional English origin names; whereas in the past they seemed more doubtful.

Nobody in England would say 'I will like to' - it would always be 'I would like to'
If they numbers start with 44701, 2 or 3, they are not UK numbers, those are international call forwarding nrs. You dial a UK nr but you are the one paying a fee for that call to be transferred abroad. These nrs are only used by scammers who wish to hide their location and real nr.
