90805 is Long Beach, California, but I have no idea where they came up with that particular ZIP code.

Links in the email go to acton.constructiondeal.com (207.189.124.58 / ViaWest, US) and then onto www.constructiondeal.com (66.63.178.68 / Quadranet, US). Originating IP is 209.162.194.139 (Act-on Software, US) and is digitally signed showing that constructiondeal.com permits sending through that IP. In other words, the email is really from constructiondeal.com and is not a fake.

The domain contact details are partly hidden, but the CEO of owner Capital Enterprise Group, LLC is Igor Mironenko who appears to hail from the Los Angeles area. Constructiondeal.com is listed at the BBB and despite having a large number of complaints it still manages an A- rating.

But in any case, I recommend a zero-tolerance approach to spammers and would personally give this firm a wide berth.
