Someone or Something is trying to take your hard earned money out of your account!!!.

Here's the Tail!!

If you get a e-mail from a reputal bank saying somebody is trying to access your account!!!.

My Advice is DELETE THE MESSAGE!!! THIS IS A SCAM:bigeyes15:

I must get about 5 of these a day, and every one make me giggle, especaly when they are from a bank I am not with.

My advice, check out Welcome to the 419 Eater and see what they do with em there :D

Easy solution if in doubt contact your bank and say 'is this right?'

Yep...but I keep saying this....

If the link says www.lloyds.com then it's probably OK...but if says!!

www.personal.lloyds.co.uk then it's not the official Lloyds TSB site. This is just an example of course.

Exactly Alth...It's not rocket science. :)

Had a very realistic one from Paypal yesterday but unfortunately the address is www.paypal.co.uk and not www.ripoffmerchants.paypal.co.uk

Pmsl.
