I hate the fact that whenever I see "kindly" in any email/message, probability suggests it's an Indian scammer.

I think it’s just an Indian thing, I know non-scammers who use it too.

Yeah, it's across multiple groups.

It's interesting; Different cultures latch onto slightly unusual idiomatic expressions in their non-native languages. I see it a lot with middle easterners; They'll call everyone "my friend." At first it comes across fake and insincere, but the more you're exposed to it from that group the more you realize it's just a cultural thing and it indeed is entirely sincere and heartfelt.

Agreed. Same with "My dear".
