A small business owner reports receiving a high volume of persistent, unsolicited business loan offers via email that bypass spam filters by using rotating domains and obfuscated links, making it difficult to identify the specific nature of the potential scam.
What people do today

- Ignoring the messages
🔧 Fix this
Ideas a builder, maker or community group could start on:
- A browser-based email plugin that analyzes sender domain reputation and flags suspicious loan-offer patterns in real-time.
- A community-driven database where small business owners can report and verify the legitimacy of specific loan solicitation domains.
- A policy initiative to require stricter verification for business-to-business email marketing to prevent domain spoofing and obfuscation.
