I think it's been well covered but for the final nail in the coffin there is an FCA warning about them:

Individual corporate bonds are not retail financial investments and do not get FSCS protection. It is potentially illiquid as it needs a buyer and there is no 30 days notice.
It is likely your money would never actually buy the corporate bond. That is just a lie to entice you to pass money over. You should report this to Action fraud and the FCA via their scams website. That email is evidence of wrongdoing.I am an Independent Financial Adviser (IFA). The comments I make are just my opinion and are for discussion purposes only. They are not financial advice and you should not treat them as such. If you feel an area discussed may be relevant to you, then please seek advice from an Independent Financial Adviser local to you.3 -
