I'm not a scammer. But I do talk kind of strange. I've read too many books lol.

I say advert as well, and when calling I say "I am calling to inquire about your advert" someone once told me real people don't use the word inquire lol

I use the word inquire, I do not use the word advert. The structure of that email screams scam to me. Most of all because there is no mention of what they are wanting to buy.
