Admin Note: This post was made by the dumb scammer himself in a pathetic attempt to avoid losing victims. We are leaving it here to show how far these disgusting creatures will go to steal from their victims.

There is an error in this instance.

The "Report Posting Cyborg" has obtained a private communication and has incorrectly reported it as a scam. This is the problem when using AI to reach conclusions based on a single intercepted email rather than actually reaching out to the company to confirm its legitimacy before posting about it. The private details included in the email can be used to confirm the legitimacy of the business.

Source: Affiliated with the company.

Poor dumb "Brad" (or "Bruce" or whatever other name you are currently using)

There's no AI involved here. You were correctly listed as a scammer by one of our members, a human who has over a decade's experience of dealing with useless scammers like you.

Let's look at a few facts about your so called "private communication".
1. It was not "intercepted", it was an email that the recipient was BCC'd on, along no doubt with countless other potential victims of yours.
2. The recipient is not a client of your company and has never registered with you to receive marketing emails. That's called spam and is not something that legitimate businesses do.
3. The recipient is not in Australia as you claim to be, so your claim to be able to offer them loans is a lie as you are not authorized to offer loans in their location. Again, not something a legitimate business would be doing.
4. Your claim to offer loans up to $500bn with no form of security is just laughable.

Not that any more evidence is needed that "Bruce Patten" is just a pathetic scammer, but here are a few posts taken from a number of online guestbooks he spammed:

God bless you for this website. bruce@pattens.com - brucepattens@hotmail.com - loans@isfinance.com.au
Again, a legitimate financial business would not be spamming websites. But his stupidity does give us a couple more of his email addresses that he uses for his scams - brucepattens@hotmail.com and bruce@pattens.com
