Virgin Media Billing Scam

Received today -

Dear Customer,
This e-mail has been sent to you by Virgin Media to inform you that we were unable to process your most recent payment of bill. This might be due to either of the following reasons:

1. A recent change in your personal information. (eg: billing address, phone)
2. Submitting incorrect information during bill payment process.

Due to this, to ensure that your service is not interrupted, we request you to confirm and update your billing information today by clicking here.

If you have already confirmed your billing information then please disregard this message as we are processing the changes you have made.

Regards,
Virgin Media
Billing Department



[SIZE=-1]Thanks for your co-operation.[/SIZE]

    I think you need to retitle your thread as it's implying this is a scam by Virgin media when in fact it's just a phishing scam from some unknown lowlife. It's not really fair to imply it has anything to do with Virgin.
