Another scam.

I received an email this morning from Nat West saying they needed to reset my account and would I clarify my details and choose a new password.
I don't even bank with Nat West, and even if I did, I wouldn't have replied.
Buggers aren't they.

Re: Another scam.

If you don't have an account with the bank mentioned, then you could play with them giving false details.
Whilst they are busy with this, maybe they are not trying to scam others.

A good idea Emjay.

Any suggestions for a fake password?

But to do that you would have to click on their link.

It is not wise to click on any link from an unknown sorce, especially a scammers.
