Why is this a loan scam?
- The email address used is a free Gmail address.
- The email was mass-mailed to many recipients using BCC.
- The email gives no indication of who where the company offering the loan are based or who they are regulated by.
- The website quoted is a free Weebly sub-domain, which is not something a company in the financial services industry would be using.
