Why is this a loan scam?

  1. It was sent from a totally different email address to the one that you are asked to reply to.
  2. The email addresses used are free Gmail & Yandex addresses.
  3. The email was mass-mailed to many recipients using BCC.
  4. The email gives no indication of where the company offering the loan are based (the assumption is that they are in South Africa based on the phone number) or who they are regulated by.
  5. The ridiculous upper amount of loan being offered.
  6. The telephone number is from South Africa, which is a known Advance Fee Fraud hotspot.
