That is 100% a minibond scam. No financial institution would contact you to sell a product if you've simply registered (where) your interest in high interest savings. Especially not an investment company.

It does not look like a minibond scam.     It is a clone scam.    There is no mini-bond in this case. Hence why it cannot be a minibond scam.  

It is using a genuine unregulated non-retail investment with a high yield which the scammer is pretending is a fixed-term-deposit.   When the scam target pays the money, it wont buy that corporate bond. it will go into the pocket of the scammer.

There seems to be a flurry of these type of posts recently . Either there are more scams around , or people stuck at home in lockdown/furlough are cruising the internet more and clicking on adverts/google results.

Recent interest rate cuts are probably also a factor.

That and the FCA ban on the marketing of mini bonds to retail investors from 01/01/2020
