Natwest Digital Banking: Urgent Security E-mail

Natwest Phishing Email 28 JanLike yesterday's NatWest Phishing Email, this one is again sent to a named email address and the content is very similar to that one and many others before it.

It also carries the 'if you are not a user' disclaimer, which I find rather amusing. Maybe the spammers are hoping it will cause less people to send the email to the bank if there's an apology for non-customers.

The link goes to a website form12.in, which my domain lookup tools will tell me nothing about and it doesn't appear in Google.

Here's the details of the email:

From: Natwest Direct Banking Support
To: Named Email Address
Subject: Natwest Digital Banking: Urgent Security E-mail
Destination URL: http://www9.natwest.co.uk.form12.in/default.aspx
