Anyone else got genuine-looking e-mails saying that they are from banks, and that you must login to your online banking or else your account would be frozen or whatever? I got one a few weeks ago, and i cant remember if i logged in to it or not, but it was a phishing scam, where the sender is trying to get hold of your login details so that he can steal money from you.

Just a warning, that these e-mails look very real, they have a link to a page that looks almost identical to the login page of your online banking, but remember banks never send out e-mails that look for private details.
my mother in law was stung for around 25k last year by a similer e-mail,

Luckily she recovered all the funds
