As a recipient of unsollicited email you simply *cannot* determine if 
something was "bulk" or not.

Emails can easily be generated from a list or database, including 
individual data for each, and still be bulk when dozens, hundreds, 
thousands of such "individual" emails are sent. "Mail merge" has been 
with us for decades, and spammers use it, too.

I'd assume the domain scammers are not sending out single emails - 
they're bulk mailing to large amounts of domain administrative contacts.
