Security alert!

I don't often get phishing emails targetted at Barclays Bank, but here's one. It deserves a mention just for it's uniqueness... In fact, looking back, I've only posted 2 reports on this blog, both in September last year. Maybe their security is pretty hot and not worth attempted hacking.

Having said that, it takes the format of the NOF - this one is the Barclays Bank Form instead. So maybe someone is switching their target. It is, of course, rubbish. The actual link points to http://ibank.barclays.co.uk.anygonti.co.uk/olb/MemberForm.do?memberid=[removed]&session=[removed]. anygonti.co.uk was only registered a few days ago (27/6/2008). I won't give the contact details - it's likely that someone has had their account broken into and the domain registered in their name.

Here's the content...
