Important Notice ( Lloyds TSB Security®Re-Confirm Your Identity and Remove Your Account Limitation Online)

Another phishing email... This one is designed to frighten the recipients (who can be bothered to read it) into thinking that attempts have been made to access their bank account. The result of these is that the account has been frozen. If that had happened, why would there be a link to reactivate it - the bank would send the reactivation details through the post, not a email link.

The actual target of the button seems to be something like hunterxhunter.cl. Doesn't seem to be a phishing site, so maybe they've had a page or a redirect hijacked.

Here's the content.
