Hallo.

Anfang des Tages ..

Es war eine sehr lange Zeit, ich höre von dir, dass alles in Ordnung
mit dir und der Familie ist.

Es ist fast Weihnachten und wir machen einen Weihnachtsbonus für
denselben Kunden, der sein Darlehen noch nicht erhalten hat. Also
glaube ich, dass Sie einer von ihnen sind? Haben Sie nicht seinen
Kredit bekommen?

Also meldet euch bei mir, wenn ihr noch Interesse habt, den Kredit zu bekommen.

Hoffentlich bald von dir zu hören.
Vielen Dank.
John Mark

So get in touch with me if you still have interest to get the loan.

Hopefully to hear from you soon.

Why is this a loan scam?

• It was sent from a totally different email address to the one that you are asked to reply to.
• 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 is offering the loan, where they are based or who they are regulated by.
