My hubby received this to day, I have only copied it as I did'nt want him to send the actual email to me. But whilst they say it was from Abbey, it was signed by NATWEST - how funny!!
Be on your guard - beware of fraudsters!
Dear Abbey National customer,
Like other UK banks, we are currently seeing very large numbers of "phishing emails" in circulation. Many of these look as if they are from Abbey National, typically encouraging you to click a link and type in your logon details. Such attempted frauds only work if you click that link, and you then type in your full security details & contact information.
Please remember: We never ask you to enter your Credit Card information & contact information on the Internet or over the phone. To learn how to protect yourself against "phishing" and other "identity theft" please spend a few minutes to upgrade to our latest security.

Best regards.
