Please Update Your Abbey Digital Banking Details

Abbey Phishing EmailI've obviously found myself onto another spam list recently with a new email address as this address has never really been phished / spammed much yet suddenly it's received 3 Abbey phishing emails in as many days. Better still, in theory I have a list of everyone who should know the email address - it's not well known...

Again it's an Abbey one with the same pointers as the previous Abbey phishing emails, although the first one really was the best for giving the game away. And if the game wasn't up straight away, sending 3 similar versions of the same email to the same people must be a big clue!

I won't go through the pointers that it's phishing today - if you want to read them see the post from a couple of days back - it's worth it!

Here's the email - remember it's fake!
