Virgin Media scam

Any Virgin customers please be aware of this latest scam e-mail which I received this morning. It is very well presented, but note the comma at the end of my e-mail address. You'd have thought, having gone to the trouble of making it appear so good, they'd have noticed the comma!

I phoned VM who confirmed it is a fishing e-mail and that they are trying to trace the source.

These crooks who do this sort of thing need their hands chopping off, but I'm afraid in this country they'd just get a slap on the wrist and carry on scamming!

Re: Virgin Media scam

Yes, I have had that one. It had all the hallmarks of a scam so I just deleted it.
