Lots of phishing emails doing the rounds

Berni967

I have received two emails in as many days regarding my so called bank account with two banks, one being Lloyds TSB and Wells Fargo, in America. Asking to click links, verify my details and the one from Lloyds telling me if I don't do so my account will be frozen. Fine I thought I don't have an account with Lloyds thankfully, just wanted to warn people who do. Checked Lloyds TSB website and they have an area regarding phishing emails and they advise forwarding the email to them at emailscams@lloydstsb.co.uk and then deleting it. Maybe next time they will get the bank account right but I doubt it.

Never respond to banking emails and never ever click on the links this includeds Paypal

I got the Lloyds TSB one last week , never had a UK bank one before , loads from "Paypal" and "Wells Fargo" and "Bank of America"

I always forward them to the fraud email address and then just delete the emails .

Ive had about 3 Abbey National ones in as many days, I just report it as a phishing scam.

Luckily, most of these land up in my "spam magnet" mailbox that allows me to better train my spam filter in Thunderbird - if they reach anywhere else, they get ignored & junked faster than a very fast thing.

I had an Abbey National one yesterday and reported it as phishing

I've never had one of these (though had a Paypal one) until recently, now I get several a day.

Mostly from banks I don't even have accounts with.

Hubby is the same.. why the deluge all of a sudden?

I've never had one before, but the other night I had one from "ebay.com" telling me I had silver Powerseller status if I clicked on this link...

The account that I was using only had 1 feedback and that's from buying...

I'm still getting a least one every couple of days even now.
