imp instead of impdp was provided causing ORA-39000

In this case, I was told a "datapump" export file was provided. However, when I performed the datapump import, it failed with ORA-39000. From my best knowledge
only couple things could trigger this error. There are either corrupted datapump import file or user performed an import with "imp" instead of datapump. Datapump file
corruption usually resulted of zip being trimmed during ftp or uploading.


Importing with "impdp" will trigger the following error.
