Here is a very convincing trap.
Luckily I do not have an account with them.



And here is the "source_file".
Be careful with it!

Read the text closely, especially the paragraph labeled "Important". One hopes a UK-based bank would not mangle the English language thus.

That is the standard "phishing" scam message. I get a lot of them, but my spam filtering program catches all of them. Most of them are very obvious because they are from places I do not (or never) have an account.

Legitimate messages from places do not ask you to update or verify data and usually will have your name listed, not a "dear sir", etc.
