An article on the BBC warning of a couple of new phishing emails doing the rounds -

http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbcthree/item/e4030933-d2e3-4711-85ae-4ab03bf7c6a7

Interestingly, I would never dream of acting on an email addressed 'Dear customer' that requested you to click on a link, but my wife has recently unexpectedly received just such an email from Amazon! Contacted them through usual routes and it turns out to be a genuine email. Wouldn't you think a company like Amazon, selling technology products, would know better?

Funny you mention this...

We've started receiving emails* from nearly everyone we have dealings with.

*I say emails, but we 'roll over' them which reveals the senders address before opening them (luckily).

If it gets any worse, we may consider changing our email address.

I now wonder these days in the digital age just WHO has our details and how often they're 'passed around'??

In the last few days had them from banks I don't use, the last one was from the tax man saying I haven't claimed my overpaid tax of £265and only have a few days left to claim it which would be nice only thing is I don't pay tax.
