DON'T open the attachment, chances are it'll be virused.

More importantly, don't try and teach your granny to suck eggs.

I received one for the 'co-operative bank' this morning.

When hovering my mouse above the 'log in' link showed a random .au based domain.

I got that one tonight. It was sent to an email address I use for O2 ?

I own my own domain name, so [email protected] comes to me.

 

Have O2 been sharing my email address ?

 

Yes, I know we all click on the, 'I've read the terms and conditions'

Part of it usually says 'share my email with affiliated companies'.

 

Bit garb init !!
