In addition to the mismatch between the names, there are a number of linguistic factors in the email that indicate that it was written by someone of African descent. So, yes it is a scam.

Please do not tell scammers that they are listed here - it will take them seconds to change their fake details and their new details will not be listed for any future victims to find.
