Virgin Scam

[EXC]

I had the attached (and clearly scam) e-mail supposedly form Virgin Media, my broadband supplier.

I knew instantly it was a scam as the address it came from was not Virgin but bjtalsma[at]shaw.ca, although I suspect that some people do fall for it. But when I called Virgin to report it they couldn't have been more disinterested in someone posing as themselves and attempting to rip off their customers. Asked if I should forward it to their security department they told me to simply ignore it.

So thanks a bunch for taking your customers' security so seriously, Beardie.

That's because it's not really Virgin, but a rather shagged-out version of TeleWest or Crap & Worthless.
