Many scammers simply cut and paste whole sections of legit websites into their scam emails, thus the initial, almost convincing appearance of the wording.

However, you should be aware that very few companies will email you directly, and if they do, they address you by your name.
In addition, no company ever demands important personal details in an email. It's a dead giveaway.
