There are many bogus degree programmes operating in the UK and the USA. For UK always check the degree is awarded by a genuine UK university:

For the USA, check USDE, CHEA, OSAC and also google "wiki bogus degrees".
Also note that in the UK there are several legal universities offering MBA's in partnership with small colleges. It seems to me they are designed to make money by taking advantage of the still good reputation of British education. The degrees are not well regarded. They are "mickey mouse". Anyone else have experience of these programmes?
