Dear Sir/Madam,
My name is Kevin Kings,. I work as a senior loan advisor at Finance House. I have been helping clients secure financing for their various projects for years. We offer private, business and personal
loans with extremely minimum annual interest rates of up to 2% over a repayment period of 5 to 20 years to any part of the world. We offer loans in the range of $250,000.00 USD to $10,000,000
USD. Our loans are well secured and maximum security is our priority. Do you lose sleep at night and worry about how to get a legitimate loan? Do you bite your nails quickly? Instead of stressing
yourself out, now contact loan professionals who help stop a bad credit history, to discover a profitable solution that is our mission.
If you are interested, contact me via email for more information betkingskevin@gmail.com:
Warm greetings

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.
- The ridiculous upper amount of loan being offered.
