The website "BlueWaveLoans.com" and the email message below that has a link to it, should not be trusted. The same website, which claims it helps consumers access money needed fast without a lot of hassles or time required, is not trustworthy. The website is not trustworthy because it collects very sensitive information from online users, but does not provide a secure connection to protect that same information.

A secure connection (https), which is a requirement for websites that collect sensitive information, is used by legitimate companies to protect their online users’ sensitive information, when it is being transmitted over the internet from the users’ computers to their servers.

Also, the security and trust logos on the website are fakes, because they are not active. You cannot click on the logos to verify their authenticity.

The Website www.BlueWaveLoans.com

Now for the email message (see below), which is being sent to thousands of people, encouraging them to visit the untrustworthy website: “BlueWaveLoans.com”, we do not recommend following the instructions in it.

  I received an email from Blue Wave Loan that had my address and an incorrect phone number. I was approved for a $1,500 loan so I called the number provided in the message, but was told that there were no agents available to speak with me. Beware everyone of this scam!

I got the same email. I never applied to Blue Loans....they had some info on me but some was also incorrect.....don't know why I got this??
They approved me for $1300 and only charge $100 for the loan....don't sound right for any of the bottom feeder payday loans... I say stay away from this!

Its most definitely a scam
from what I can guess, a site that people have used, mostly likely a payday loan matcher has been compromised.
So they are trying to phish more information from people. I would keep an eye on your credit report and email.

  Using phishing scams. Most people are tricked by scammers into disclosing their personal and financial information in email messages, over the phone or on fake websites.

My dad received this exact same email, and we are wondering if he could be victim of identity theft? What you guys think?? Should we take action and go to the police? or is no need to worry about those kind of scammy emails?

  I would contact the employer that is listed in the email and advise them your information was compromised.

    There is no need to because the email may have been spoofed. So, it doesn't mean that the email message actually came from the email address.

  The emails are sent by spammers and it doesn't mean that your identity was stolen. So, there is no need to worry or report it to the police.
