SHAME I DONT BANK WITH THEM...SO BEWARE

[Newt]

Dear Valued Customer,

 

That alone screams that the email is a phishing scam. They will address you by name as will pretty much any legit organization sending a similar warning.

 

Even eBay & Paypal will use your name and eBay includes your ID as well.

There was a thing on the news this morning about the 'online money mules' i.e. the ones that ask you to launder money.

 

They seem to think that the money has come from crime. I was always of the impression that it didn't actually exist. If it does, I might start reply to the Sgt. in Iraq / daughter of President Um Bongo, etc.

Had 4 emails just like this i the last 3 weeks ,the strange thing is I dont have internet banking

[Elton]

That's not strange, Rob. They're sent to billions of addresses on the offchance somebody does bank with whatever bank they're pretending to be from

[chesters1]

they also get information if your mail program sends a return receipt ,this shows its a viable working email address
