Bad E mail


[link to this post]
 
I keep getting e mails from NatWest Bank asking me to complete Online Banking Customer Form, they say the procedure is obligatory for all internet banking users of NATWEST BANK, the problem is I am not a Natwest customer, I must get about 6 a day of these e mails, I just delete them, is anyone out there getting the same trouble and what do you do ? please

They are scam emails. You might get some claiming to be Natwest this week then Hailfax next week and Barclays after that.
They (fraudsters that send these out) are hoping to get legitimate bank users to goto a fake website and enter their real account information. The fraudsters then use this to get access to you account.

So when you get one that seems to come from your own bank, you know to ignore it! Better still, tell them about it.

Funny how it the US banks that don't seem to have an email address you can forward them to for investigation. But then seeing as how most of the email baddies are american based perhaps not.
