Phishing Mails ?

[Techno]

Anyone else noticed that these seem to be having a recent resurgence ?
Not noticed any being intercepted for MONTHS.....But this morning..."They're back".

Lots of banks threatening to suspend my accounts with them unless I give them all my personal details...In your dreams muppets...Anyway, I don't have accounts with you 
And a nice couple who have won squillions on the lottery .....and want to pass some on to ME !.......I think I'll pass. 

Irritating thing, is that it looks like my server is going to be over enthusiastic and treat 'proper' mails as ones to go straight into the Junk folder as well.
Found one from 'Orcs' (Mark) there this morning......
Mind you....Orange seem to take a dislike to anyone that uses the same server as him, from time to time.

Moving on past my original thought that this was about non-swearing expletives, I agree, I've been getting a few from banks telling me that if I don't respond within two days my account will be frozen, Good luck with that one as I don't have an account with them! I even got one from HMRC saying I had a refund of nearly £700. Would I like to click on the link to confirm...er, no, I'll just wait for the cheque, thank you.
   Fortunately I don't seem to be getting any of the penile enlargement or stamina enhancer adverts (touches wood for luck)...get yer mind out of the gutter...that are all the rage at the moment.

On other news, I've been granted £1000 from a bank that I don't even know!

Huzzah! I'm going to spend it all on Pendraken goodies!

Yeah I get loads of spam mail as well. Got this one this morning



Bloody Phishing mail

[Ithoriel]

Tempting fate here but not getting anything except a monthly message from some outfit offering many and varied temptations in exchange for my bank details .... they're from some bloke calling himself Leon ... I don't know where these scammers come up with their fake names

That Leon bloke ?
I get those as well, but I've devised a cunning system where I get him to send me money, rather than the other way round.

And why would a man as obviously senseless as Leon send YOU money Phil ?
