Abbey National Bank On-line Banking Please Confirm Your Data!

A few days ago the RBS joined the list of targets of the 'sorry if you are not a customer' phishing email, and now we're back to the original (that I know of). Once more the Abbey are the targets of this email. The text has changed sightly from the original that I reported back in November, but it's only slight word changes - the paragrpahs are basically the same.

This time around the target URL is http://www5.anbusiness.bank11.net/servlet/?portal=[removed]. bank11.net does appear in plenty of phishing search results. Here's the email's text.
