Nationwide Online Phishing scam email

Heard a lot about these scam bank emails and was feeling a little left out having never received one.

:beer:

Got one this morning...... knew it was a scam as I have never had a Nationwide account. It does look surprisingly convincing..... there is even a warning about providing your log on details ON THE SAME PAGE THAT THEY SPECIFICALLY ASK FOR IT ! :eek:

Just shows you how cocky they are getting.

Anyway, the link in the email appears as "nationwide.co.uk", but when you click on it, it displays http://wowarcraft.de/pnews/lip,/Nationwide/index.html in the browser address window.

Not sure if this is the best place for it, or where else I might post this warning. Any body has any ideas then feel free to share them.
