Islamic Bank of Britain | Rewards balance currently unavailable.

Here's a new (to me) target - the Islamic Bank of Britain. Not seen an email targeted at them before.

It's a little confusing to read, but is making out that there's an account problem. It tries to look official with some account waffle at the bottom, but ultimately no bank would send such an email, and they should use your name (not "Dear customer") and it wouldn't be sent to 'undisclosed-recipients'.

And the destination URL would definitely not be http://tlg.thk-jc.or.jp/~test/. I wonder what the '~test' is there for? I can find this result in other searches.

Here's the content:

Dear customer,


Your Islamic Bank of Britain Rewards balance is currently unavailable for one of the following reasons:


* Your credit card* and/or Check Card has recently been enrolled in the Rewards program. It takes up to five business days for the Rewards account to become active.


* You are not the primary owner of the checking and/or credit card account. Islamic Bank of Britain accounts are set up in the primary owner?s name and therefore can only be accessed online by the primary owner.


* There is a problem with your home address or personal information we have on file.


If you dont get authenticated within the next 48 hours, then we will assume this account is fraudulent and will be suspended.




To solve this problem we advise you to log in to your online banking account and check the validity of your personal information and specially your home address. To access your account and rectify this issue now follow the link below:
