Yet another email scam

[*Ang*]

Hi geeks....now I know none of us here are thickos but I could have been fooled by an email I just received. Its from lloyds tsb and looked all official with the black horse logo etc. asking me to click a link to update my details. One small problem, I don't bank with them so I've passed it over to their scam department. What will they think of next! :irked:

Same here, I get them all the time, its bloody annoying. I am also getting emails saying my eticket is now available for all different airlines, and that I m going to be charged for them. I havent been charged at all, they just want me to put my details online...Cheeky buggers....xx
