Straight from my Junk e-mail folder comes not 1 but 2 phishing e-mails for Lloyds TSB. Once again they are fairly official warning and are trying to scare me into clicking on the link and once again the Text Version proves that they are sending me to a Phishing site. The biggest problem for me though with these e-mails is that I don’t have an account with Lloyds TSB.
For reference if you receive an unexpected e-mail from Lloyds TSB here is a link to their anti-Phishing Page.
