Warning Lloyds TSB email scam

I am not a Lloyds TSB customer and I received the following email this morning from services@lloydstsb.com

I'm sure most people are very wise to these scams but I just wanted to warn anyone who is a Lloyds TSB customer in case they got tricked into this.

    Can't you simply delete these along with all the others??

    This scam is hardly revolutionary.
  • I did delete it and I am aware of that. I was just trying to be helpful.
  • Hi lind.
    If everyone were wise to this type of scam, the fraudsters wouldn't continue to send them out. (A bit like the 'pull my finger' joke that we used to play at school!!)
    So thanks for sharing.
