Important message from National Westminster Bank! (mess_id: 5409481371714)

NatWest continues to be targetted by phishers and it's still the variation of the text only email, along with a load of hidden random characters at the bottom of the email.

The usual pointers are all there - not personalised and not going direct to the real website. And why oh why do they put a fake copyright at the bottom? Does that make more people click on the very dodgy link?

If you receive a copy - just bin it and don't follow the link.

Here's the email, without the hidden random text.
